Description
Provides an overview of current know-ledge of the wide variety of mechanisms used by bacterial pathogens to establish infection, produce disease, and persist in the host. The overall emphasis is to understand the mechanisms of host-pathogen interactions rather than to focus on specific research approaches.
First Sentence
Adhesion to the intestinal epithelium is an important determinant of virulence for many pathologenic bacteria, allowing them to resist the fluid flow of lumenal contents.
