In this volume, the pathogenesis and immune reaction of these intracellular infections is featured, as are the most typical problems related to antimicrobial chemotherapy, and current approaches to their solution. Notable chapters set the pace for research on the pathogenic and immune reactions to such infections as Mycobacterium tuberculosis Legionella pneumophila Chlamydia trachomatis and Brucella.Infectious agents and pathogenesis.Bacterial diseasesOpportunistic infectionsImmunodeficiencyImmunosuppressionBacterial diseases.Opportunistic infections.Immunodeficiency.Immunosuppression.616.9/2Paradise Lois J1648773Friedman Herman1931-2007.1648774Bendinelli Mauro291109MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910819209603321Opportunistic intracellular bacteria and immunity3997167UNINA
