Implication of TLR- but not of NOD2-signaling pathways in dendritic cell activation by group B Streptococcus serotypes III and V.
Group B Streptococcus Footrests (GBS) is an important agent of life-threatening invasive infection.It has been previously shown that encapsulated type III GBS is easily internalized by dendritic cells (DCs), and that this internalization had an impact on cytokine production.The receptors underlying these processes are poorly characterized.Knowledge
