Growth kinetics of environmental Legionella pneumophila isolated from industrial wastewater [PDF]
, 2020 Wastewater treatment plants are environmental niches for Legionella pneumophila, the most commonly identified causative agent of severe pneumonia known as Legionnaire's disease. In the present study, Legionella pneumophila's concentrations were monitored

Innate Immunity to Legionella Pneumophila [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2011 Innate immune cells, such as macrophages, are highly adapted to rapidly recognize infections by distinct pathogens, including viruses, bacteria, fungi, and protozoa. This recognition is mediated by pattern recognition receptors (PRRs), which are found in host cell surface membranes and the host cell cytoplasm.

Caspase Exploitation by Legionella pneumophila [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016 Legionella pneumophila remains a major health concern, especially for hospitalized patients. L. pneumophila in the environment can survive extracellular or as protozoan parasite within amoeba. After human infection it efficiently replicates in alveolar macrophages without activating inflammasome assembly and cleavage of caspase-1.
