Contribution of fibronectin-binding protein to pathogenesis of Streptococcus suis serotype 2 [PDF]
In the present study we investigated the role of the fibronectin (FN)- and fibrinogen (FGN)-binding protein (FBPS) in the pathogenesis of Streptococcus suis serotype 2 in piglets. The complete gene encoding FBPS from S.

The Influence of Bacteriophage on Streptococcus pyogenes [PDF]
By the selective action of certain bacteriophages on cultures of susceptible streptococci it is possible to alter or enhance certain of their characteristics. The extractable M antigen may be greatly increased; non-mucoid strains may become completely mucoid with or without the increase in M antigen.

ABSTRACT Exopolysaccharides (EPS) produced by Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus OLL1073R‐1 have been reported to exert immunomodulatory effects, primarily in antiviral responses; however, their role in antibacterial host defense remains unclear. Here, we investigated whether EPS enhance macrophage‐mediated killing of Streptococcus pyogenes, a
