Figure 6. Phagocytosis and replication of the mgtC mutant in the J774 macrophage cell line.

Figure 6

(A) Phagocytosis of the mgtC mutant and complemented strains by J774 macrophages is normalized to 100% for the wild-type strain. Results are expressed as means+SD from four independent experiments. (B) Numeration of macrophages infected with mcherry-expressing bacteria, normalized to 100% for the wild-type strain. Results are expressed as means+SD from three independent experiments. (C) Replication of the mgtC mutant and complemented strains by J774 macrophages normalized to the wild-type strain. Results are expressed as means+SD from four independent experiments. (D) Kinetic of phagocytosis of the mgtC mutant and complemented strains by J774 macrophages normalized to 100% for the wild-type strain at 180 min. The wbbl2 mutant strain is used as a positive control. Results are expressed as means ± SD (error bars) from three independent experiments. Asterisks indicate statistical significance (* P<0.05; ** P<0.01).
