Group A Streptococcus virulence factors genes in north India & their association with emm type in pharyngitis.

The Indian journal of medical research - 1 Jan 2011

Dhanda V, Vohra H, Kumar R

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES: Group A streptococcal (GAS) pharyngitis, especially among children, leads to high prevalence of rheumatic fever (RF)/rheumatic heart disease (RHD) in India, as compared to the western world where invasive diseases are common. GAS encodes numerous virulence factors that cause diseases by exhibiting extraordinary biological diversity. Hence, we studied the virulence factors genes of GAS...
