External pH Variations Modify Proliferation, Erythrophagocytosis, Cytoskeleton Remodeling, and Cell Morphology of Entamoeba histolytica Trophozoites.

To infect the human host, Entamoeba histolytica carries out processes requiring cytoskeleton remodeling, which involves reorganizing the actin fibers. However, little is known about the external influence factors, e.g.

Low molecular weight protein tyrosine phosphatase (LMW-PTP2) protein can potentially modulate virulence of the parasite Entamoeba histolytica.

The Entamoeba histolytica parasite is the causative agent of amebiasis, infecting approximately 1% of the world population and causing 100,000 deaths per year. It binds to Fibronectin (FN), activating signaling pathways regulated by kinases and phosphatases. EhLMW-PTPs genes from E.
