Vertical Transmission of Listeria monocytogenes: Probing the Balance between Protection from Pathogens and Fetal Tolerance
TL;DR: A number of animal models have been used to interrogate L. monocytogenes vertical transmission, including mice, guinea pigs, gerbils, and non-human primates; each of these models has advantages while still not providing a comprehensive understanding of the disease.

TL;DR: Overexpression of surface InlB via genetic manipulation was sufficient to confer enhanced invasion of the placenta and fetus to both 10403S and 07PF0776, and these data support a central role for surface InLB in promoting vertical transmission of L. monocytogenes.
