The differential interaction of brucella and ochrobactrum with innate immunity reveals traits related to the evolution of stealthy pathogens
(PLOS ONE, 2009-06-16)
Background: During evolution, innate immunity has been tuned to recognize pathogen-associated molecular patterns. However, some a-Proteobacteria are stealthy intracellular pathogens not readily detected by this system. ...
Brucella abortus uses a stealthy strategy to avoid activation of the innate immune system during the onset of infection
(PLOS ONE, 2007-07-18)
Background. To unravel the strategy by which Brucella abortus establishes chronic infections, we explored its early interaction with innate immunity. Methodology/Principal Findings. Brucella did not induce proinflammatory ...
