Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG Suppresses Meningitic E. coli K1 Penetration across Human Intestinal Epithelial Cells In Vitro and Protects Neonatal Rats against Experimental Hematogenous Meningitis
Figure 1
Effects of LGG on E. coli K1 adhesion to and invasion of Caco-2. Epithelial
cells were incubated with various doses of L. rhamnosus for 3 hours
before adding bacteria. Adhesion and invasion assays were carried out as
described above. All values represent the means of triplicate determinations.
The results were expressed as adhesion (Figure 1(a)) or invasion activities
(Figure 1(b)) compared to that of the control without LGG. Error bars indicate
standard deviations. .
