Neutrophils Versus Staphylococcus aureus : A Biological Tug of War

8 Jul 2013

Abstract excerpt

The pathogen Staphylococcus aureus is well adapted to its human host. Neutrophil-mediated killing is a crucial defense system against S. aureus; however, the pathogen has evolved many strategies to resist killing. We first describe the discrete steps of neutrophil activation and migration to the site of infection and the killing of microbes by neutrophils in general. We then highlight the different approaches...
