What is Virulence Mechanisms of Bacterial Pathogens (ASM Books) about?

__Ground-breaking overview of an enduring topic__ Despite the use of antibiotics, bacterial diseases continue to be a critical issue in public health, and bacterial pathogenesis remains a tantalizing problem for research microbiologists. This new edition of __Virulence Mechanisms of Bacterial Pathogens__ broadly covers the knowledge base surrounding this topic and presents recently unraveled bacterial virulence strategies and cutting-edge therapies. A team of editors, led by USDA scientist Indira Kudva, compiled perspectives from experts to explain the wide variety of mechanisms through which bacterial pathogens cause disease: the host interface, host cell enslavement, and bacterial communication, secretion, defenses, and persistence. A collection of reviews on targeted therapies rounds out the seven sections of this unique book. The new edition provides insights into some of the most recent advances in the area of bacterial pathogenesis, including * how metabolism shapes the host-pathogen interface * interactions across species and genera * mechanisms of the secretion systems * evasion, survival, and persistence mechanisms * new therapies targeting various adaptive and virulence m
