Abstract excerpt
Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense clones, which are susceptible to lysis by normal human serum, were isolated from 3 different human serum-resistant clones originally derived from strain ETat 1.10. Serologically, these pairs of serum-sensitive and serum-resistant clones displayed the same variant surface glycoprotein (VSG) on their surface. Acquisition of human serum sensitivity correlated with susceptibility to...
