How do African trypanosomes evade complement attack?

University of York

Department of Biology

African trypanosomes sustain chronic infections despite being constantly exposed to the host immune system. In response, these single-celled parasites of mammalian blood have evolved an extraordinary cell surface centred on extreme antigenic variation, which they use to evade adaptative immunity.
