Spn infection disrupts the structural integrity of the Golgi apparatus. BEAS-2B cells were infected with Spn D39, MOI 1 for 16 h or left uninfected. Cells were fixed and fluorescence stained for Golgin-97 and the nucleus (DAPI). Binary images were generated and used to quantify the Golgi area. A Immunofluorescence images. Overlays were generated using the false-colored DAPI- and Golgin-97 images. B Quantification of the Golgi surface area, normalized to uninfected controls. (Statistics: paired two-tailed t-test; * = p < 0.05; Scale: 10 µm; at least 600 cells from 5 independent experiments were quantified)
