Effect of lactobacilli on CT infectivity. (A) Effect of lactobacilli cell pellets on CT infectivity. Quantification of HeLa cells positive to CT inclusions. The results are expressed as a percentage of CT infectivity, comparing the number of IFUs with the control (set at 100%). Bars represent mean values, and red error bars represent standard deviation. (B) Percentage of CT-infected HeLa cells pre-exposed to L. crispatus or L. reuteri culture supernatant (S) (diluted 1:100) and L. reuteri culture supernatant supplemented with 10 mM D(−)- or L(+)-LA. Results are from three independent experiments. Statistical significance is calculated vs. control (* p ≤ 0.01; ** p ≤ 0.001; *** p ≤ 0.0001). All measurements were performed in duplicate on six separate occasions.
