Transcriptional adaptation of shigella flexneri during infection of macrophages and epithelial cells : insights into the strategies of a cytosolic bacterial pathogen [PDF]
Shigella flexneri, the etiologic agent of bacillary dysentery, invades epithelial cells as well as macrophages and dendritic cells and escapes into the cytosol soon after invasion.
