Streptococcus pneumoniae infection starts from the respiratory tract where interaction with host epithelial cells occurs. To gain more insights on pneumococcal pathogenesis, an oligonucleotide (oligo)-based microarray was used to investigate gene expression changes of one serotype 3 encapsulated pathogenic S. pneumoniae strain 82 and one unencapsulated avirulent S. pneumoniae strain R6 upon exposure to human lung epithelial cells (A549) for 1 and 3 h, respectively. We observed that genes associa ...[more]
