Antibiotics alone have not been able to control the disease and in spite of many efforts an effective vaccine is not yet available. A prerequisite for novel and successful strategies for combating these bacteria is a complete understanding of the highly complex pathogenic mechanisms involved, which are analyzed in this volume. In ten chapters, prominent authors cover various aspects including streptococcal diseases and global burden, epidemiology, adaptation and transmission, and molecular mechanisms of different diseases, as well as sequelae, vaccine development and clinical management. This book will serve as a valuable reference work for scientists, students, clinicians and public health workers and provide new approaches to meeting the challenge of streptococcal diseases. | 出版日期 | Book 2013 | 关键词 | deep tissue infections; eukaryotic cells; host matrix proteins; phagocyte evasion; zoonotic streptococci | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-36340-5 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-642-43836-3 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-642-36340-5Series ISSN 0070-217X Series E-ISSN 2196-9965 | issn_series | 0070-217X | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer-Verlag GmbH, DE |
