Model for Studying Bacterial Adherence to Epithelial Cells Infected with Viruses

Daniel S Selinger 1, William P Reed 1, Leroy C McLaren 2
PMCID: PMC351532  PMID: 6265368

Abstract

Measles infection decreased adherence of staphylococci, streptococci, and pneumococci to cultured epithelial cells, whereas adenovirus had no effect. Rhinovirus increased staphylococcal and streptococcal adherence. Influenza A increased or decreased staphylococcal adherence at different times after infection.
