Participation of Integrin α5β1 in the Fibronectin-Mediated Adherence of Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli to Intestinal Cells

Figure 4

Adhesion of EAEC strain 042 to T84 cells. T84 cells preincubated with DMEM only (control) or medium supplemented with fibronectin (Fn), Fn and anti-integrin α5β1 (RGD), or anti-integrin α5β1 (α5) were infected with EAEC strain 042. The number of adherent bacteria was determined by colony forming unit counts (CFU). different between treatments ().
