Membrane vesicle delivery of a streptococcal M protein disrupts the blood–brain barrier by inducing autophagic endothelial cell death

M family proteins are critical virulence determinants of Streptococci. Streptococcus equi subsp. zooepidemicus (SEZ) are Group C streptococci that cause meningitis in animals and humans.
