No differences in neutrophil survival and apoptosis were observed between Mrp8;Metfl/fl and Mrp8;Metwt/wt neutrophils at 2 and 20 hours post infection (S1B Fig). To assess if the absence of c-MET would have an impact on the parasite number per neutrophils, BMNs from WT (Mrp8;Metwt/wt) and c-MET deficient (Mrp8;Metfl/fl) neutrophils were infected and 16 hours later analysed by imaging flow cytometry. Here, MET is linked to infection.
