Role of the lectin pathway of complement in C. albicans and P. aeruginosa infections
Role of the lectin pathway (LP) of complement in fighting two opportunistic pathogens, Candida albicans and Pseudomonas aeruginosa was assessed through a combination of in vitro assays supported by in vivo infection experiments using a unique mouse strain of total LP functional deficiency (MASP-2 -/...
