Clopidogrel and Percutaneous Coronary Interventions [PDF]
JAMA, 2003 case fatality rates in inhaled anthrax can approach 100%. Anthrax bacteria, after being inhaled, use three toxins— protective antigen, oedema factor, and lethal factor—to enter, appropriate, and kill alveolar macrophages. Seven copies of protective antigen assemble and facilitate entry of oedema factor and lethal factor into macrophages.
