Proteomics Identification of Novel Fibrinogen-binding Proteins of Streptococcus suis Contributing to Antiphagocytosis

Streptococcus suis serotype 2 (SS2) induced sepsis and meningitis are often accompanied by bacteremia. However, the mechanism whereby it helps S. suis to evade PMN-mediated phagocytosis remain unclear. Because of the central roles of bacteria-human fibrinogen (hFg) interaction in innate immunity, h...
