Figure 6From: Beneficial effect of chronic Staphylococcus aureus infection in a model of multiple sclerosis is mediated through the secretion of extracellular adherence protein Western blot analysis. Western blot analysis showed the presence of extracellular adherence protein (Eap) in the serum of animals infected with wild-type S. aureus bacterium (Lane 5, 6 and 7). No Eap was detected in the serum samples of the control animals (Lane 2, 3 and 4). Purified Eap (Lane 1) was used as a positive control. Ponceau staining was used as a loading control.Back to article page
