Role of cellular lipoteichoic acids in mediating adherence of serotype III strains of group B streptococci to human embryonic, fetal, and adult epithelial cells

Lipoteichoic acids (LTA) of serotype III strains of group B streptococci (GBS) were shown to mediate adherence of these organisms to human embryonic (HEC), fetal (HFC), and adult buccal (HBEC) epithelial cells. The binding of GBS was temperature dependent, and maximum attachment occurred at 37 degre...
