Neutrophils dampen adaptive immunity in Brucellosis
(American Society For Microbiology, 2019-04-23)
Brucella organisms are intracellular stealth pathogens of animals and humans. The bacteria overcome the assault of innate immunity at early stages of an infection. Removal of polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs) at the ...
Neutrophils as Trojan Horse vehicles for Brucella abortus macrophage infection
(Universidad Nacional, Costa Rica, 2019-05-07)
Brucella abortus is a stealthy intracellular bacterial pathogen of animals and humans. This bacterium promotes the premature cell death of neutrophils (PMN) and resists the killing action of these leukocytes. B. abortus-infected ...
Persistence of Brucella abortus in the bone marrow of infected mice
(Journal of Immunology Research, 2018-12-03)
Brucellosis is a zoonotic bacterial infection that may persist for long periods causing relapses in antibiotic-treated patients. The ability of Brucella to develop chronic infections is linked to their capacity to invade ...
