Invasive streptococcal infection can lead to the generation of cross-strain opsonic antibodies
2022-07-01
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Introduction</h4> The human pathogen Streptococcus pyogenes causes substantial morbidity and mortality. It is unclear if antibodies developed after infections with this pathogen are opsonic and if they are strain-specific or more broadly protective. Here, we quantified the opsonic antibody response following invasive S. pyogenes infection. <h4>Materials and Methods</h4> Four patients with S. pyogenes bac...
