Expression profiles of SmPoMucs. Western blot experiments were performed using a standardized method on proteins extracts from 1000 miracidia. Image was analyzed and grayscale (intensity on y axis) indicates protein abundance. X-axis migration distance in inches. a SmPoMucs expression in F0 (full and dashed lines) and F1 (dotted line). F1 profile corresponds almost perfectly to the combination of both F0. b Comparison of SmPoMucs expression in F1, F2 and F3. Global profile remains constant but 3 major bands decrease in intensity. c SmPoMucs expression in SmLE with (dot-and-dash line) and without TSA (full line) treatment. After TSA treatment, latent variants are now expressed (indicated by arrowheads)
