A collagen receptor on Staphylococcus aureus strains isolated from patients with septic arthritis mediates adhesion to cartilage
Abstract
Summary: Staphylococcus aureus strains isolated from patients with septic arthritis or osteomyelitis possess a collagen receptor present in two forms, which contains either two or three copies of a 187‐amino‐acid repeat motif. Collagen receptor‐positive strains adhered to both collagen substrata and cartilage in a time‐dependent process. Collagen receptor‐specific antibodies blocked bacterial adherence, as did preincubation of the substrate with a recombinant form of the receptor protein. Furthermore, polystyrene beads coated with the collagen receptor bound collagen and attached to cartilage. Taken together, these results suggest that the collagen receptor is both necessary and sufficient to mediate bacterial adherence to cartilage in a process that constitutes an important part of the pathogenic mechanism in septic arthritis.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
