How innate immune signaling is orchestrated in response to specific common airway pathogens is addressed, targeting Staphylococus aureus (including MRSA), Streptococcus pneumoniae and Klebsiella pneumoniae.   By describing the general immunological responses to conserved bacterial components and then detailing how specific organisms cause infection, this book provides a targeted but comprehensive review of this important topic.ImmunologyMedical microbiologyInfectious diseasesImmunologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B14000Medical Microbiologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B16003Infectious Diseaseshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H33096Immunology.Medical microbiology.Infectious diseases.Immunology.Medical Microbiology.Infectious Diseases.616.2616.241Prince Aliceedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910437848803321Mucosal Immunology of Acute Bacterial Pneumonia2502977UNINA
