Acquiring high expression of suilysin enable non-epidemic Streptococccus suis to cause streptococcal toxic shock-like syndrome (STSLS) through NLRP3 inflammasome hyperactivation
The epidemic Streptococcus suis (S. suis) strain [Sequence type (ST) 7] was gradually evolving from the non-epidemic ST1 strain and got the ability for high expressing of suilysin (SLY). And the high expression of SLY was required for the epidemic strain to cause NLRP3 hyperactivation, which is esse...
