Figure 8From: Mycoplasma bovis subverts autophagy to promote intracellular replication in bovine mammary epithelial cells cultured in vitroIntracellular M. bovis assays under various autophagic states. Intracellular M. bovis replication in bMEC under various autophagic states were compared. Control: M. bovis-infected bMEC without treatment of rapamycin, HBSS, 3-methyladenine; 3-Ma: M. bovis-infected bMEC treated with 3-methyladenine; HBSS: M. bovis-infected bMEC treated with Hanks balanced salt solution; Rapamycin: M. bovis-infected bMEC treated with rapamycin. Data are mean  ±  SD of 3 independent experiments. Standard deviations of individual measurements are indicated as bars. *Compared to the control group (p  <  0.05).Back to article page
