Extracellular Vesicle‐Bound Bacterial Toxin Pneumolysin Triggers Membrane Engagement and Damage Beyond Canonical Pore Formation

Journal of Extracellular Vesicles, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2026.
Bacterial toxin hijacks host microvesicles to breach cell membranes Microvesicles derived from challenged host cells carrying the pneumococcal pore‐forming toxin pneumolysin promote fusion with target cells and membrane permeabilisation. Our integrated experimental and computational study reveals a mechanism by which PLY‐lipid interactions enable ...
