Adherence of Ureaplasma urealyticum to human erythrocytes.
Ureaplasma urealyticum (four serotypes and two clinical isolates) were metabolically labeled with radioactive methionine to a high specific activity. Labeling allowed the study of the mechanism of adherence to human erythrocytes. The adherence mechanism was complex and partially mediated by proteinaceous surface components. The binding sites on the erythrocytes were partially sensitive to neura...
متن کاملAdherence of Ureaplasma urealyticum to human epithelial cells.
Adherence of Ureaplasma urealyticum cells to eukaryotic cell monolayers was quantified using the Bertholet assay to monitor ammonia produced from urea by ureaplasma urease. Adherence was abolished by pre-treatment of ureaplasmas with HeLa cell extracts and inhibited to varying degrees by pretreatment of the ureaplasmas with N-acetylneuraminic acid, specific antisera and monoclonal antibodies. T...
متن کاملCharacteristics of Ureaplasma urealyticum urease.
Sonication of Ureaplasma urealyticum cells grown in a dialysate growth medium effectively separated the cytoplasmic fraction from the membrane fraction, with both fractions relatively free from exogenous contaminating proteins. The urease activity was associated with the cytoplasmic fraction, and the ureaplasmal urease exhibited a specific activity higher than that of crystalline jack bean urea...
متن کاملClastogenic effects of different Ureaplasma urealyticum serovars on human chromosomes.
The possibility that Ureaplasma urealyticum might play an important role in human infertility was first raised more than 20 years ago, but this association remains speculative. Considering the hypothesis that the pathogenicity of Ureaplasma urealyticum may depend on its serotypes, the clastogenic effects of different strains of Ureaplasma urealyticum, at concentrations of 10(3) CCU (color chang...
