Glycosaminoglycan Binding Facilitates Entry of a Bacterial Pathogen into Central Nervous Systems

Certain microbes invade brain microvascular endothelial cells (BMECs) to breach the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and establish central nervous system (CNS) infection. Here we use the leading meningitis pathogen group B Streptococcus (GBS) together with insect and mammalian infection models to probe a p...
