Release of Helicobacter pylori vacuolating cytotoxin by both a specific secretion pathway and budding of outer membrane vesicles. Uptake of released toxin and vesicles by gastric epithelium.

FIOCCA, ROBERTO NECCHI V SOMMI P

The mechanisms by which Helicobacter pylori releases its virulence factors are poorly known. Active secretion has been proposed for some products, including a vacuolating toxin (VacA). Outer membrane vesicles represent another mechanism by which some Gram-negative bacteria may release virulence factors. This study sought to localize VacA by...
