Effect of myriocin on the intracellular proliferation of S. typhimurium in cultured IECs. SW480c cells were left untreated, or treated with myriocin or PBS (vehicle), and then infected with wild-type S. Typhimurium strain SL1344 and the levels of bacterial proliferation were examined 60 min after infection as indicated in Experimental Section. Lysed cell cultures were plated on LB to count CFUs. Values represent the percentage of intracellular bacteria compared with the wild type without any treatment (assigned as 100 %). Each value represents the mean ± S.E.M. of 3 independent experiments. An asterisk indicates a significant difference (p < 0.05)
