S. suis infection in humans commonly causes meningitis, septicemia, arthritis,and streptococcal toxic shock-like syndrome(STSLS). S. suis has 29 serotypes, of which S. suis serotype 2(SS2) has the highest clinical isolation rate and strongest pathogenicity and causes most S. suis human infections.About 1,000 different sequence types(STs)were identified in S.suis based on multilocus sequence typing(MLST).Among these,STs,ST1,and ST7 belong to serotype 2 and are the major hazards of S.suis.in 1998 and 2005,two cases of SS2 human infection outbreak were reported in Jiangsu and Sichuan,China,causing 14 deaths and 38 deaths,respectively.展开更多
