Single-cell transcriptomics of Encephalitozoon intestinalis infection in Caco-2 and Vero cells
Microsporidia are single-celled, obligate intracellular parasites closely related to fungi. One of the most common human-infecting microsporidian species, Encephalitozoon intestinalis, is an enteric parasite that invades and replicates within the epithelial lining of the small intestine. Two epithelial cell lines, Caco-2 and Vero cells, are routinely used as in vitro models of E. intestinalis…
