abstract：:Helicobacter pylori releases VacA both as free-soluble and as outer membrane vesicle (OMV)-associated toxin. In this study, we investigated the amount of VacA released in each of the two forms and the role of each form in VacA-induced cell vacuolation in vitro. We found that: (1) free-soluble toxin accounted for about...
