Plasminogen binding proteins and plasmin generation on the surface of Leptospira spp.: the contribution to the bacteria-host interactions. [PDF]

J Biomed Biotechnol, 2012
Leptospirosis is considered a neglected infectious disease of human and veterinary concern. Although extensive investigations on host‐pathogen interactions have been pursued by several research groups, mechanisms of infection, invasion and persistence of pathogenic Leptospira spp. remain to be elucidated.

Bacterial Plasminogen Receptors: Mediators of a Multifaceted Relationship

BioMed Research International, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
Multiple species of bacteria are able to sequester the host zymogen plasminogen to the cell surface. Once localised to the bacterial surface, plasminogen can act as a cofactor in adhesion, or, following activation to plasmin, provide a source of potent proteolytic activity.
