The immunising effect of pneumococcal nasopharyngeal colonisation; protection against future colonisation and fatal invasive disease.

Immunobiology - 1 Apr 2010

Richards Luke, Ferreira Daniela M, Miyaji Eliane N, Andrew Peter W, Kadioglu Aras

Abstract excerpt

The human nasopharynx is an important ecological niche for Streptococcus pneumoniae, and asymptomatic nasopharyngeal carriage is a common precursor to invasive disease. However, knowledge of the immunological events, which occur during carriage, both on a cellular and humoral level, remains limit...
