Fibrinogen binds to nontoxigenic and toxigenic Corynebacterium diphtheriae strains

1 Aug 2010

Abstract excerpt

The production of fibrinous exudates may play an important role in determining the outcome of bacterial infection. Although pseudomembrane formation is a characteristic feature of diphtheria, little is known about the fibrinogen (Fbn)-binding properties of Corynebacterium diphtheriae strains and the influence of the gene that codes for diphtheria toxin (tox gene) in this process. In this study we demonstrated the...
