Phagocytosis analyses of different S. suis strains.
(A) Phagocytosis of S. suis strains by RAW264.7 macrophages. Intracellular bacteria were recovered from cell lysates in 1 h post-infection. The results are expressed as means ± SD of recovered bacteria/ml. The asterisk indicates that the phagocytosis values of the mutants were pretty higher than that of the wild-type strain, at a **P value of <0.05. (B) Intracellular S. suis 2 in THP-1. The results are expressed as means ± SD of recovered bacteria/ml. The asterisk indicates that the phagocytosis values of the mutants were significantly higher than that of the wild-type strain, at a ***P value of <0.05. (C) Antibiotic effects on intracellular 05ZYH33 in THP-1 at different time points Data are expressed as means ± SD of recovered bacteria/ml. The survival values of the mutants were significantly lower than that of the wild-type strain, at a P value of <0.05.
