“…Recently, it was reported that AS promotes the adhesion of E. faecalis to fibrin (24) as well as to the extracellular matrix proteins fibronectin, vitronectin, collagen type I, and thrombospondin (36). In direct interaction with cultured mammalial cells, AS-mediated uptake was demonstrated with intestinal epithelial cells (34,43) and a colon cell line (26).…”

“…Studies demonstrating AS involvement in virulence were performed with mostly constitutive AS-expressing cells in both the pAD1 and pCF10 systems (26,28,(34)(35)(36)38). The tight regulation of AS expression in vitro led us to investigate if AS on the plasmid pCF10 plays a role in a rabbit endocarditis model and therefore if AS on pCF10 is induced in vivo.…”

“…To investigate the adhesion of S. agalactiae to immobilized ECM components, adherence assays were performed in ECM-coated Terasaki plates as published (25). To investigate fibrinogen adhesion, 60-well Terasaki plates were incubated for 18 h with human fibrinogen (Sigma) reconstituted in Dulbecco's phosphate-buffered saline (DPBS).…”

“…Gelatinase encoded by gelE gene is an extracellular zinc metalloprotease that hydrolyses gelatine, collagen, casein, haemoglobin, and antimicrobial peptides of the innate immune system (24,25). The asa1 is encoded by pheromoneresponsive plasmids, which often harbour antibiotic resistance genes (26,27). The protein causes clumping of E. faecalis cells and survival inside polymorphonuclear leucocytes, internalisation by intestinal cells, and increases in bacterial binding to cultured renal epithelial cells (28,29).…”
