Listeria monocytogenes--host interaction.
Both innate and adaptive immunity against Listeria monocytogenes are essential in circumventing or fighting the disease, although there is no clear delineation of the precise role of either in listeriosis. A consistent amount of in vivo experiments have generated a complex picture over the impact of listerial infection on the hosts, and they are shortly reviewed in this paper.
