Abstract
Source: Flaherty, R. A., et al. Implementation of a Permeable Membrane Insert-based Infection System to Study the Effects of Secreted Bacterial Toxins on Mammalian Host Cells. J. Vis. Exp. (2016).
This video demonstrates a permeable membrane insert system to investigate the impact of bacterial toxins on host cells in a controlled and isolated manner. This approach allows for the selective exposure of the cells to the toxins while maintaining a physical separation that mimics the natural host-pathogen interaction.
Protocol
1. Bacterial Culture Generate isogenic mutant strains to be used for the study of the specific secreted factor of interest. Note: The GASM1T1 5448 Streptococcus strains utilized for these experiments included WT GAS', a sagAΔcat SLS-deficient mutant (abbreviated in the text as ΔsagA), and a sagA complemented strain (abbreviated in the text as ΔsagA+sagA). Prepare overnight liquid culture…
