This pathogen commonly adheres to the surface of the intestine, causing diarrhea. In the intestine type, mortality is law. At the opposite, it can also be nonintestinal where Pili facilitate the adherence of ''Aeromonas'' to human buccal cells.<ref>Cleavage specificity of serine protease of Aeromonas sobria, a member of the kexin family of subtilases., H.

Experiments have been done to try to reduce the virulence activity of ASP. It has been demonstrated that the [http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alpha-2_macroglobuline α2-macroglobulin], a plasma protein, can limit ASP activity. This protein can bind to ASP which is thus inactivated. <ref>Inhibition of Aeromonas sobria serine protease (ASP) by α2-macroglobulin. Murakami Y et al.
