Abstract
Transferrin and, to a lesser extent, insulin were two components of serum that enhanced the survival of Treponema pallidum in microaerophilic, acellular medium. These two components also enhanced the attachment of T pallidum to baby rabbit genital organ (BRGO) cells in both aerobic and microaerophilic tissue culture systems. Growth hormone and epidermal growth factor marginally enhanced the attachment of T pallidum to BRGO cells.Entities:
