It could be argued that we understand the immune response to infection with Listeria
monocytogenes better than the immunity elicited by any other bacteria. L. monocytogenes …

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 Gram-positive bacterium that is often used to study the
mammalian immune response to infection because it is easy to culture, is relatively safe to …

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 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 (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 …

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

Mice deficient in lymphocytes are more resistant than normal mice to Listeria
monocytogenes infection during the early innate immune response. This paradox remains …

Infection with Listeria monocytogenes is a well studied model for understanding host
resistance to intracellular bacteria. Recent advances in the study of Listeria have carefully …

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 …
