Invasion and replication of <i>B</i>. <i>pseudomallei</i> in caspase-6 deficient macrophages.

<p>Intracellular bacterial burden of C57BL/6-WT and C57BL/6-<i>caspase6</i>^<i>-/-</i> macrophages after infection with <i>B</i>. <i>pseudomallei</i> strain E8 at an MOI of ~ 25. The CFU data were logarithmized to achieve normal distribution and compared using Student’s t-test. Values are means ± standard deviations from triplicate determinations. The experiment was repeated three times.
