Phagocytosis of Pseudomonas aeruginosa by macrophages: receptor-ligand interactions

D P Speert. Trends Microbiol. 1993 Sep.

Abstract

Phagocytic cells play a critically important role in host defense against infection with Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Recent observations on the receptors and ligands that mediate ingestion of this bacterium by phagocytic cells and the factors that modulate phagocytosis have provided the theoretical underpinning for novel therapeutic strategies.
