"Our study demonstrates that GAS has evolved two independent strategies to prevent bacterial recognition and maturation of DC : 1) inhibition of GAS internalization by the HA capsule, thus reducing intracellular sensing of streptococcal ligands, and 2) induction of DC apoptosis by intracellular SLO producing GAS."
reach
"Production of the secreted CDC SLO is strongly associated with the capacity of GAS to incapacitate macrophage function : SLO producing GAS bacteria induce apoptosis of murine and human macrophages in vitro and resist macrophage mediated bacterial killing, in contrast to isogenic SLO deficient mutants."
reach
"In studies of GAS interactions with HeLa cells, Sakurai et al. also found that SLO production was associated with a failure of GAS containing early endosomes to colocalize with LAMP-1 and suggested that SLO producing GAS was released into the cytoplasm soon after internalization and later incorporated into autophagosomes."
reach
"SLO and ScpC independently enable GAS to escape from PMN functions; Present data using clinical isolated GAS and a scpC deletion mutant (XREF_FIG) show that enhanced production of serine proteinase ScpC in virulent GAS is essential to impair PMN migration in vitro by degradation of IL-8, as others partially have demonstrated XREF_BIBR - XREF_BIBR."
