The adaptive immune response to Clostridioides difficile: A tricky balance between immunoprotection and immunopathogenesis.

abstract：:Because myotonic dystrophy (MD) is an autosomal dominant multisystemic disorder affecting plasma membrane, we have studied the oxidative burst of PMNs. The PMA and fMet-Leu-Phe-stimulated superoxide generation is defective in the patient group as compared to controls: the response is both delayed and low. The kinetic ...
