Contribution of Plasminogen Activation towards the Pathogenic Potential of Oral Streptococci

Oral streptococci are a heterogeneous group of human commensals, with a potential to cause serious infections. Activation of plasminogen has been shown to increase the virulence of typical human pathogenic streptococci such as S. pneumoniae. One important factor for plasminogen activation is the str...
