Journal ArticleDOI
Streptococcus suis, an important pig pathogen and emerging zoonotic agent-an update on the worldwide distribution based on serotyping and sequence typing.
Guillaume Goyette-Desjardins,Jean-Philippe Auger,Jianguo Xu,Mariela Segura,Marcelo Gottschalk +4 more
TL;DR: This review presents the worldwide distribution of serotypes and sequence types (STs), as determined by multilocus sequence typing, for pigs and humans between 2002 and 2013 and if these differences can be associated with specific serotypes or STs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Streptococcus suis: a new emerging or an old neglected zoonotic pathogen?
TL;DR: The present knowledge on S. suis infection in humans is critically reviewed, the hypotheses that may explain the 2005 outbreak are discussed and the repercussion of such an episode on the scientific community is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
The pathogenesis of the meningitis caused by Streptococcus suis: the unresolved questions.
TL;DR: A complete understanding of the cell-interacting pathways that S. suis may follow inside the host could give important insights into the progression of disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Virulence factors involved in the pathogenesis of the infection caused by the swine pathogen and zoonotic agent Streptococcus suis
TL;DR: This review discusses the potential contribution of different described S. suis virulence factors at each step of the pathogenesis of the infection and briefly discusses other described virulence factor candidates and virulence markers for which a precise role has not yet been clearly established.
Journal ArticleDOI
Streptococcus suis infections in humans: the Chinese experience and the situation in North America.
TL;DR: The increased severity of S. suis infections in humans, such as a shorter incubation time, more rapid disease progression and higher rate of mortality, underscores the critical need to better understand the factors associated with pathogenesis.
