    Author: Kharseeva GG, Voronina NA.
    Journal: Zh Mikrobiol Epidemiol Immunobiol; 2016 May; (3):97-104. PubMed ID: 30695460.
    Abstract:
    Pathogenicity factors of Corynebacterium non diphtheriae - pili, microcapsule, cell wall, pathogenicity enzymes, toxins, that determine the ability of microorganisms to consequentially interact with epithelium of entry gates of the organism, replicate in vivo, overcome cell and hu- moral mechanisms of protection, are examined in the review. Particular attention in the paper is given to species of non-diphtheria corynebacteria, that are pathogenic for human and able to produce toxins - Corynebacterium ulcerans and Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis. Mechanisms of expression regulation of PLD-exotoxins, its interaction with immune system cells are described.
