Bacterial Pathogens and Phagocytic Cells (5557 words, 3 pages)
Along their evolutionary timeline, disease-causing bacteria have developed multiple strategies to circumvent phagocytic immune responses and optimize survivability in hostile molecular environments. These strategies range from avoiding molecular recognition by phagocytic cells to deliberately stimulating phagocytosis to gain entry into endosomes and more hospitable cytosolic spaces. Bacteria that avoid recognition ...
