Eimeria falciformis sporozoite and derived EVs. a E. falciformis sporozoite after excystation from sporocyst. b Bar graph from NTA analysis of 10 µg EfSEVs in 1 ml of PBS. EfSEV mean diameter was 246 ± 2 nm. c TEM image of EfSEV processed through negative staining with 3% phosphotungstic acid. d Western blot analysis of EfSEVs using anti-Hsp70. Abbreviations: EfSEV, E. falciformis sporozoite EVs; EVs, extracellular vesicles; Hsp70, heat shock protein 70; NC, non-treated control particles; NCs, non-treated control supernatant; TEM, transmission microscopy; VF, vesicle-free (see Additional files 1–5)
