Immune Inhibitor A Metalloproteases Contribute to Virulence in <i>Bacillus</i> Endophthalmitis

2020-07-06

Abstract excerpt

Bacterial endophthalmitis is a devastating infection that can cause blindness following the introduction of organisms into the posterior segment of the eye. Over half of Bacillus endophthalmitis cases result in significant loss of useful vision. Often, these eyes have to be enucleated. Bacillus produces many virulence factors in the eye that may contribute to retinal damage and robust inflammation. This study an...
