Fig. 1From: Protein cysteine S-nitrosylation provides reducing power by enhancing lactate dehydrogenase activity in Trichomonas vaginalis under iron deficiencyGlycolysis of T. vaginalis was induced by iron deficiency. Lactate and pyruvate levels were measured to monitor the glycolysis efficiency of trichomonad cells cultured under different levels of iron availability. a The lactate level of the iron-deficient group (ID, 180 µM DIP) relative to that of the iron-rich control group (IR, 80 µM FAC) is shown. *** P < 0.001 compared with the IR group. b The pyruvate level of the ID group relative to that of the IR control group is shown. The data are presented as the mean ± SD of three independent experiments. * P < 0.05 compared with the IR groupBack to article page
