Bacteria-host transcriptional response during endothelial invasion by Staphylococcus aureus
The purpose of the study was to investigate the transcriptomic responses of S. aureus and HUVEC cells before and during S. aureus invasion of HUVEC cells. Overall design: In vitro investigation of the expression profiles of S. aureus in inoculum and uninfected HUVEC cells as well during S. aureus infection of HUVEC cells (1hpi and 16hpi).
