Novel strategies for controlling Streptococcus pyogenes infection and associated diseases: from potential peptide vaccines to antibody immunotherapy.

abstract：:The mucosal system is the first line of defense against many pathogens. It is continuously exposed to dietary and microbial antigens, and thus the host must maintain a homeostatic environment between commensal microbiota and pathogenic infections. Following infections and inflammatory events, a rapid innate immune res...
