Parasite growth in the presence of LDL, fatty acids, or glucose. Uracil incorporation was assayed using CHO cells infected with the ME49 strain of T. gondii for 20 h in medium containing 5% LPDS treated with LDL or oleic acid at the concentrations indicated (A), or in glucose-free medium containing 10% FBS treated with glucose at the concentrations indicated (B). Data are expressed as a percentage relative to the control (incubation without lipid or glucose), which was taken as 100% ± the standard deviation (n = 4).
