Clindamycin-induced CovS-mediated regulation of the production of virulent exoproteins streptolysin O, NAD glycohydrolase, and streptokinase in Streptococcus pyogenes.
The administration of high-dose clindamycin (CLI) along with penicillin is recommended for the treatment of streptococcal toxic shock syndrome. However, the prevalence of CLI-resistant Streptococcus pyogenes strains is increasing worldwide, and the effect of CLI on CLI-resistant S. pyogenes strains remains unknown. We aimed to evaluate the effect of CLI on the in vitro production of three major...
متن کاملIdentity of streptolysin-O and NAD-glycohydrolase (EC 3.2.2.5).
The homogeneity of purified NAD-glycohydrolase (EC 3.2.2.5) from Group C streptococci was demonstrated by analytical ultracentrifugation, disc electrophoresis and immunochemical analysis. Together with earlier characterization procedures the data show that the enzyme is homogenous in molecular seize, molecular form and electrophoretic charge. In addition, the enzyme has been shown to possess st...
متن کاملStreptolysin O and NAD-Glycohydrolase Prevent Phagolysosome Acidification and Promote Group A Streptococcus Survival in Macrophages
UNLABELLED Group A Streptococcus (GAS, Streptococcus pyogenes) is an ongoing threat to human health as the agent of streptococcal pharyngitis, skin and soft tissue infections, and life-threatening conditions such as necrotizing fasciitis and streptococcal toxic shock syndrome. In animal models of infection, macrophages have been shown to contribute to host defense against GAS infection. However...
متن کاملStreptolysin O and its Co-Toxin NAD-glycohydrolase Protect Group A Streptococcus from Xenophagic Killing
Group A Streptococcus (Streptococcus pyogenes or GAS) causes pharyngitis, severe invasive infections, and the post-infectious syndromes of glomerulonephritis and rheumatic fever. GAS can be internalized and killed by epithelial cells in vitro, a process that may contribute to local innate defense against pharyngeal infection. Secretion of the pore-forming toxin streptolysin O (SLO) by GAS has b...
