Listeria monocytogene

A

Lyse phagocytes: Membrane attack complex also escape

17
Q

The Three Stages of Inflammation:

A

Vasodilation, Phagocyte migration and phagocytosis, repair (magination adherence migration )

18
Q

——causes phagocytes to release—-

A

Endotoxins, IL-1 is an endogenous pyrogen, When no more IL–1, body temperature falls (crisis).
