Recent advances in understanding Listeria monocytogenes infection: the importance of subcellular and physiological context
2017-07-13
Abstract excerpt
The bacterial pathogen Listeria monocytogenes ( Lm ) is the causative agent of listeriosis, a rare but fatal foodborne disease. During infection, Lm can traverse several host barriers and enter the cytosol of a variety of cell types. Thus, consideration of the extracellular and intracellular niches of Lm is critical for understanding the infection process. Here, we review advances in our understanding of Lm infect...
