StreptInCor: a candidate vaccine epitope against S. pyogenes infections induces protection in outbred mice. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Infection with Streptococcus pyogenes (S. pyogenes) can result in several diseases, particularly in children. S. pyogenes M protein is the major virulence factor, and certain regions of its N-terminus can trigger autoimmune sequelae such as rheumatic ...

Antimicrobial Drug Use and Macrolide-Resistant Streptococcus pyogenes, Belgium
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2012 In Belgium, decreasing macrolide, lincosamide, streptogramins B, and tetracycline use during 1997–2007 correlated significantly with decreasing macrolide-resistant Streptococcus pyogenes during 1999–2009.

Erythromycin Resistance in Streptococcus pyogenes in Italy
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2000 In a prospective study of acute pharyngitis in Italian children, 69 (38.3%) of 180 isolates of Streptococcus pyogenes were resistant to macrolides. S. pyogenes was eradicated in 12 (63.1%) of 19 patients with erythromycin-resistant S.

Volatile scents of influenza A and S. pyogenes (co-)infected cells. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2019 AbstractInfluenza A is a serious pathogen itself, but often leads to dangerous co-infections in combination with bacterial species such asStreptococcus pyogenes. In comparison to classical biochemical methods, analysis of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in headspace above cultures can enable destruction free monitoring of metabolic processesin vitro.

From Infection to Autoimmunity: <i>S. pyogenes</i> as a Model Pathogen. [PDF]
MicroorganismsGroup A β-hemolytic Streptococcus (GAS) is a Gram-positive, coccoid-shaped bacterium that tends to grow in chains; it is a non-spore-forming, facultatively anaerobic, catalase-negative, aerobic bacterium. It is known to cause a wide range of infections in children, ranging from mild upper respiratory tract infections, such as pharyngitis, to severe ...

Ovarian necrosis due to S. pyogenes septic thrombophlebitis: A case report. [PDF]
Case Rep Womens Health, 2018 The incidence of systemic infection attributed to group A streptococci (GAS) is increasing, mainly in postpartum women. Such infections require multidisciplinary management and prompt treatment, but an atypical presentation can delay diagnosis. We report the case of a 24-year-old woman admitted to the emergency department for evaluation.

Insertional inactivation of streptolysin S expression in Streptococcus pyogenes [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1983 The inactivation of a genetic determinant critical for streptolysin S production was accomplished by transfer and insertion of the transposon Tn916 into the DNA of a group A streptococcal strain. The group D strain CG110 was able to efficiently transfer Tn916 into the group A strain CS91 when donor and recipient cells were concentrated and incubated ...

Aggressive Pyogenic Spondylitis Caused by S. constellatus: A Case Report
Diagnostics, 2022 Streptococcus constellatus (SC) is a species of Streptococcus belonging to the Streptococcus anginosus group, along with Streptococcus anginosus and Streptococcus intermedius. Despite its commensal nature, underlying risk factors and medical conditions might lead to various anatomic site infections caused by this opportunistic pathogen.

Identification and characterization of two temperature-induced surface-associated proteins of Streptococcus suis with high homologies to members of the arginine deiminase system of Streptococcus pyogenes [PDF]
, 2002 The present study was performed to identify stress-induced putative virulence proteins of Streptococcus suis. For this, protein expression patterns of streptococci grown at 32, 37, and 42°C were compared by one- and two-dimensional gel electrophoresis ...
