Relative Contributions of Extracellular and Internalized Bacteria to Early Macrophage Proinflammatory Responses to <named-content content-type="genus-species">Streptococcus pneumoniae</named-content>

ABSTRACT Both intracellular immune sensing and extracellular innate immune sensing have been implicated in initiating macrophage proinflammatory cytokine responses to Streptococcus pneumoniae. The S. pneumoniae capsule, a major virulence determinant, prevents phagocytosis, and we hypothesized that t...
