Capsular polysaccharide (CPS) is an important virulence factor for bacteria, providing the ability to avoid recognition and killing by the host immune system. Exploring the alteration of CPS synthesis inin response to epinephrine stimulation can lay the groundwork for revealing the pathogenic mechanism ofas well as providing ideas for Glässer's disease control.
