Influence of the Host and Parasite Strain on the Immune Response During Toxoplasma Infection.

abstract：:Shigella is a Gram-negative bacterium that is responsible for shigellosis. Over the years, the study of Shigella has provided a greater understanding of how the host responds to bacterial infection, and how bacteria have evolved to effectively counter the host defenses. In this review, we provide an update on some of ...
