Aberrant macrophage and neutrophil population dynamics and impaired Th1 response to Listeria monocytogenes in colony-stimulating factor 1-deficient mice.

Abstract excerpt

Listeria monocytogenes, a facultative intracellular bacterium, has been used extensively to study innate immune responses. Macrophages act as hosts for this bacterium as well as a major defense against it. Using mice homozygous for a null mutation (Csf1(op)) in the gene for the mononuclear phagoc...
