Binding of Haemophilus ducreyi to Extracellular Matrix Proteins
We developed an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay-based assay to assess Haemophilus ducreyi binding to extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins. H. ducreyi 35000HP bound to fibronectin, laminin, and type I and III collagen but not to type IV, V, or VI collagen or elastin. Isogenic strains with mutations in ftpA or losB bound as well as the parent, suggesting that neither pili nor full-length lipooli...
متن کاملBinding of extracellular matrix proteins to Paracoccidioides brasiliensis.
Adhesion to extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins plays a crucial role in invasive fungal diseases. ECM proteins bind to the surface of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis yeast cells in distinct qualitative patterns. Extracts from Pb18 strain, before (18a) and after animal inoculation (18b), exhibited differential adhesion to ECM components. Pb18b extract had a higher capacity for binding to ECM compo...
متن کاملBinding of recombinant apolipoprotein(a) to extracellular matrix proteins.
Elevated levels of lipoprotein(a), which consists of apolipoprotein(a) [apo(a)] covalently linked to a low-density lipoprotein-like moiety, is an independent risk factor for the development of atherosclerosis. We show that a recombinant form of apo(a) [r-apo(a)] binds strongly to fibronectin and fibrinogen, weakly to laminin, and not at all to von Willebrand factor, vitronectin, or collagen typ...
متن کاملCalcium enhances Acanthamoeba polyphaga binding to extracellular matrix proteins.
PURPOSE To characterize better the ameba-host interactions that may be involved with the pathogenesis of Acanthamoeba keratitis, the role of calcium (Ca2+) on the binding of Acanthamoeba polyphaga to extracellular matrix proteins was examined in vitro. METHODS The binding of a metabolically labeled A. polyphaga (CDC:0187:1) isolate from a case of human keratitis to collagen type IV, laminin, ...
متن کاملBinding of Haemophilus ducreyi to extracellular matrix proteins.
A collection of Haemophilus ducreyi isolates were screened for the ability to bind to fibrinogen, fibronectin, collagen, gelatin and laminin by a particle agglutination test using latex beads coated with the individual proteins. Thirteen of 21 isolates reacted with all five extracellular matrix proteins. Binding of organisms to protein-coated latex beads was inhibited by pretreatment of the bac...
