In a slum community in northeastern Brazil 20% of a sample population was colonized with Entamoeba histolytica or Entamoeba dispar and 10.6% was colonized with E. histolytica alone. No correlation between seropositivity for anti-Ga1NAc lectin antibody and colonization was found. These results suggest that colonization does not necessarily produce immunity to reinfection.
在巴西东北部的一个贫民窟社区,抽样人群中有20%感染了溶组织内阿米巴或迪斯帕内阿米巴,仅感染溶组织内阿米巴的比例为10.6%。未发现抗GalNAc凝集素抗体血清阳性与感染之间存在相关性。这些结果表明,感染不一定会产生对再次感染的免疫力。
