Figure 4

(A) Phagocytosis of fluorescein-labelled Escherichia coli bioparticles and (B) killing capacity of live E. coli by porcine monocytes after 22 h incubation with LPS-depleted porcine milk exosomes (MEx) (107). Cells treated with only medium (no exosomes) were considered as control. The results are expressed as fluorescence intensity (485/538 nm) and as colony-forming units/mL (CFU/mL), respectively. Data are means ± SEM of seven and five experiments for phagocytosis and killing capacity, respectively. Significance was declared for P ≤ 0.05 (*).
