Transcellular translocation of<i>Campylobacter jejuni</i>across human polarised epithelial monolayers

Abstract excerpt

The mechanisms whereby Campylobacter jejuni translocates across the host intestinal epithelium are not yet understood and the transepithelial route remains undefined. During C. jejuni translocation, the transmonolayer electrical resistance (TER) across polarised monolayers of Caco-2 cells is not affected and the penetration of [(14)C]inulin across the monolayers does not increase. Over 24 h, however, bacteria...
