Pathogenesis of pneumococcal infection

1 Dec 2000

Abstract excerpt

The pathogenesis of pneumococcal infection is a complex interplay between pneumococcal virulence determinants and the host immune response. Molecular studies have considerably advanced our knowledge and understanding of the precise structures and functions of the different determinants and their pathogenic roles. This review describes the mechanisms by which pneumococci attach, invade, evade lung defences and...
