Vigilant Keratinocytes Trigger PAMP Signaling in Response to Streptococcal M1 Protein
@inproceedings{Persson2017VigilantKT, title={Vigilant Keratinocytes Trigger PAMP Signaling in Response to Streptococcal M1 Protein}, author={Sandra T Persson and L. Wilk and M. M{\"o}rgelin and H. Herwald}, year={2017} }
The human skin exerts many functions in order to maintain its barrier integrity and protect the host from invading microorganisms. One such pathogen is Streptococcus pyogenes, which can cause a variety of superficial skin wounds that may eventually progress into invasive deep soft tissue infections. Here we show that keratinocytes recognize soluble M1 protein, a streptococcal virulence factor, as a PAMP to release alarming inflammatory responses. We found that this interaction initiates an… CONTINUE READING
