Septic Vs Colonizing Group B Streptococci Differentially Regulate Inflammation and Apoptosis in Human Coronary Artery Endothelial Cells - a Pilot Study
Please always quote using this URN: urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-125596
- In this pilot study, we exemplify differences between a septic and a colonizing GBS strain during their interaction with Endothelial Cells by evaluating cytokine levels, surface and apoptosis-related molecules. These preliminary results indicate that in vitro infection using an exemplary septic GBS strain results in diminished activation of the innate immune response.
