Host Cell Binding Mediated by Leptospira interrogans Adhesins [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2022
Leptospirosis is a neglected infectious disease with global impact on both humans and animals. The increase in urban development without sanitation planning is one of the main reasons for the disease spreading. The symptoms are similar to those of flu-like diseases, such as dengue, yellow fever, and malaria, which can result in a misleading clinical ...

Leptospira interrogans Binds to Cadherins

open access: goldPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2014
Leptospirosis, caused by pathogenic species of Leptospira, is the most widespread zoonosis and has emerged as a major public health problem worldwide. The adhesion of pathogenic Leptospira to host cells, and to extracellular matrix (ECM) components, is likely to be necessary for the ability of leptospires to penetrate, disseminate and persist in ...
