Suppression of Eg-TSP1 transcripts in E. granulosus protoscoleces using different siRNAs. siRNAs were transferred twice to E. granulosus protoscoleces by soaking. An irrelevant siRNA was used as the control and three Eg-TSP1-specific siRNAs (siRNA-132, −480 and −540, respectively) were the experimental samples. Eg-TSP1 transcript levels were measured by qRT-PCR and normalized using Eg-EF1α transcripts. Data are presented as the mean ± SD of triplicate experiments. Statistically significant differences between the control group and the Eg-TSP1-specific siRNA groups were determined by Student’s t-test (* P < 0.01; ** P < 0.0001)
