Outer membrane vesicles from Brucella abortus promote bacterial internalization by human monocytes and modulate their innate immune response.
Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) released by some gram-negative bacteria have been shown to exert immunomodulatory effects that favor the establishment of the infection. The aim of the present study was to assess the interaction of OMVs from Brucella abortus with human epithelial cells (HeLa) and mono...
