Pathogen recognition and induction of immune responses are important for efficient
elimination of infection. However, pathogens such as Listeria monocytogenes employ …

Acquired cell-mediated immunity to Listeria monocytogenes is induced by infection with live,
replicating bacteria that grow in the host cell cytosol, whereas killed bacteria, or those …

The Gram-positive facultative intracellular bacterium Listeria monocytogenes is a model
pathogen for elucidating important mechanisms of the immune response. Infection of mice …

Listeria monocytogenes is a rapidly growing, Gram‐positive, facultative intracellular
pathogen that has been used for over 5 decades as a model to study basic aspects of …

Listeria monocytogenes (Lm) is both a life-threatening pathogen of humans and a model
organism that is widely used to dissect the mechanisms of innate and adaptive immune …

Listeria monocytogenes is an intracellular bacterium responsible for a disease characterized
by several clinical features, such as septicemia, brain infection, abortion, and perinatal …

The intracellular bacterium Listeria monocytogenes continues to serve as a model to define
general paradigms of cell-mediated immunity. Genetic manipulations of the bacterium and …

Listeria monocytogenes escapes from the phagosome of macrophages and replicates within
the cytosolic compartment. The macrophage responds to L. monocytogenes through …

We are at the beginning of the third decade of studies at the molecular level on the
pathogenesis of Listeria monocytogenes and the response of the host to its infections. It is a …

The opportunistic intracellular pathogen Listeria monocytogenes has become a paradigm
for the study of host–pathogen interactions and bacterial adaptation to mammalian hosts …
