Characterization of Acanthamoeba macrophage activation

2015-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Acanthamoeba castellanii is a free-living amoeba ubiquitous in nature, with worldwide distribution. Although it is capable of living and proliferating without invading hosts, it can occasionally cause opportunistic as well as non opportunistic diseases in humans. Dissecting the immunology of Acanthamoeba infections has been always considered problematic due to the very low incidence despite the high exposure rates...
