Modulation of the E-cadherin in human cells infected <i>in vitro</i> with <i>Coxiella burnetii</i>
2022-12-08
Abstract excerpt
High concentration of soluble E-cadherin (E-cad) was previously found in sera from Q fever patients. Here, BeWo cells which express a high concentration of E-cad were used as an in vitro model to investigate the expression and function of E-cad in response to infection by Coxiella burnetii , the etiological agent of Q fever. Infection of BeWo cells with C. burnetii leads to a decrease in the number of BeWo cell...
