| Popis: | Eighteen strains of Fusobacterium nucleatum were studied with respect to their adherence to human erythrocytes, polymorphonuclear leukocytes, fibroblasts, and HeLa cells. Four types of adherence were found: 1) sugar-sensitive adherence 2) amino acid-sensitive adherence 3) unknown adherence 4) weak adherence. There was no obvious correlation between the patterns of hemagglutination and adherence to other cells. The results indicate not only a complex network of bacterial receptors on human cells, but also a variety of types of bacterial adherence as expressed by the selectivity of the bacterial binding to specific cell surfaces. |
