Phagocytosis of Bacteria and Bacterial Pathogenicity

By Ernst, Joel D.

- Default Title
Description
This book provides up-to-date information on the crucial interaction of pathogenic bacteria and professional phagocytes, the host cells whose purpose is to ingest, kill, and digest bacteria in defense against infection. The introductory chapters focus on the receptors used by professional phagocytes to recognize and phagocytose bacteria, and the signal transduction events that are essential for phagocytosis of bacteria. Subsequent chapters discuss specific bacterial pathogens and the strategies they use in confronting professional phagocytes. This outstanding overview of current knowledge will be invaluable to graduate students and researchers.
