Long-distance delivery of bacterial virulence factors by Pseudomonas aeruginosa outer membrane vesicles.

Bacteria use a variety of secreted virulence factors to manipulate host cells, thereby causing significant morbidity and mortality. We report a mechanism for the long-distance delivery of multiple bacterial virulence factors, simultaneously and directly into the host cell cytoplasm, thus obviating t...
