| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study was conducted to reveal the detailed cytotoxic mechanism caused by the action of streptolysin S (SLS) homolog, a peptide hemolysin secreted from Streptococcus anginosus subsp. anginosus (SAA) normally habitual in the human oral cavity. As first, an in vitro preparation system for the recombinant SLS homolog was investigated to prepare the assay tool for the investigation of the cytotoxicity specifically induced by SLS homolog. In addition, the exhaustive gene expression analysis of the human cell line co-cultured with SLS homolog secreting β-hemolytic SAA was conducted and showed some interesting variation of the gene expression profile induced by the action of SLS homolog. From this study, we get on base of the elucidation about the cytotoxic mechanism of SLS homolog secreted from β-hemolytic SAA strain.
