Pathogenesis of neonatal Streptococcus agalactiae infections.

B Spellerberg1.   

Abstract

Streptococcus agalactiae is an important human pathogen causing severe neonatal infections. During the course of infection, S. agalactiae colonizes and invades a number of different host compartments. Bacterial molecules including the polysaccharide capsule, the hemolysin, the C5a peptidase, the C-proteins, the hyaluronate lyase and a number of unknown bacterial components determine the interaction with host tissues. This review summarizes our current knowledge about these interactions.
