- 15 May 2014
The role of suilysin, a member of cholesterol-dependent cytolysins, in differential pathogenicity between ST1 and ST104 strains is investigated and it is suggested that it contributed to the higher bacterial density and enhanced inflammation in brain and increased mortality of meningitis in humans.
