Disease relevance of Bacteriolysis

 

High impact information on Bacteriolysis

  • The time-course and dose dependency of bacteriolysis in the isolated system were identical to those in C4-depleted serum [5].
  • In vitro analyses using (125)I-CD59 and bacteriolysis assays showed that protectin bound to H. pylori and protected CagA(+) strains against complement killing [6].
  • Humoral IgA, separated and purified from human sera drawn 12, 27, and 33 days after infection with serogroups B, Y, and C meningococci, respectively, has been shown to inhibit complement-mediated bacteriolysis by IgG and IgM purified from the same sera [7].
  • Saturation of one or more PBPs also resulted in a different rate of bacteriolysis, the highest rate being obtained by the cefsulodin-mecillinam combination and by 5 micrograms of either imipenem or meropenem per ml [8].
  • Experiments were therefore undertaken to assess stimulation of human monocytes by components released from Escherichia coli following bacteriolysis by the cell wall-active antibiotic ceftazidime [9].
 

Chemical compound and disease context of Bacteriolysis

 

Anatomical context of Bacteriolysis

  • Neither an enhancement of autolytic wall degradation nor an inhibition of the incorporation of cell wall material are pre-requisites for penicillin-induced bacteriolysis in staphylococci [11].
 

Associations of Bacteriolysis with chemical compounds

 

Gene context of Bacteriolysis

  • Transmission electron microscopic studies revealed that FK037 inhibited septum formation and induced thick cross walls and bacteriolysis at the division sites in MRSA after 4 h incubation [16].
  • Overexpression of the emtA gene did not result in bacteriolysis in vivo, but the enzyme was shown to hydrolyze glycan strands isolated from murein by amidase treatment [17].
  • The two OS of a gonococcal strain sensitive to normal human serum (NHS) bacteriolysis (sers) varied in their ability to inhibit the binding of NHS immunoglobulin M to their parental LOS [18].
  • It is suggested that the augmented killing could be due to bacteriolysis by beta-glucuronidase [19].
  • Bacteriolysis induced by the antibiotic can be modulated by addition of EDTA, divalent cations and autolysin activators (trypsin) or inhibitors (cardiolipin), suggesting that topologic regulation of the autolysins is involved in the process [20].
