Review: Molecular mimicry of host structures by lipopolysaccharides of Campylobacter and Helicobacter spp.: implications in pathogenesis
1996-12-01
Abstract excerpt
Molecular mimicry of host structures by the saccharide portion of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) contributes to the virulence of certain strains of mucosal pathogens. Mimicry by the low molecular weight (low-M r ) LPSs of Neisseria and Haemophilus spp. have been the most extensively studied. However, studies within the last decade have revealed other types of mimicry within the saccharide moieties of LPSs of the enteric...
