A. flavus EVs induce a protective effect on Galleria mellonella in an in vivo model. (A) G. mellonella larvae (n = 5 per group) were stimulated with A. flavus EVs (105, 106, and 107 particles) or with PBS as a control 48 h prior to infection with A. flavus conidia. Larvae were homogenized and levels of CFU content determined 48 h postinfection for fungal burden analysis. (B) Survival rates (n = 5 larvae per group) during 15 days postinfection. Data represent the results of two independent experiments. One-way ANOVA and Bonferroni’s multiple-comparison tests were used for fungal burden analysis and the log rank (Mantel-Cox) test for survival curve analysis. *, P < 0.05.
