Legionella pneumophila infection activates bystander cells differentially by bacterial and host cell vesicles
Abstract Extracellular vesicles from eukaryotic cells and outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) released from gram-negative bacteria have been described as mediators of pathogen-host interaction and intercellular communication. Legionella pneumophila (L. pneumophila) is a causative agent of severe pneumoni...
