Phagocytosis enhancement by pneumococcal components. Analysis of phagocytosis by tracking beads in a mixed glial cell culture, demonstrating enhancement by single- (PLY or capsule) or double knockout (PLY and capsule) bacterial lysates, but not in the wild-type D39-treated cells. All values represent the mean ± SEM, n = 4 imaged fields from three independent experiments, *p < 0.05. In all bacterial lysis experiments, the lysate concentration was 20 million CFU/ml
