Pneumolysin binds to the Mannose-Receptor C type 1 (MRC-1) leading to anti-inflammatory responses and enhanced pneumococcal survival

Streptococcus pneumoniae (the pneumococcus) is a major cause of mortality and morbidity globally, and the leading cause of death in under-five year olds. The pneumococcal cytolysin pneumolysin (PLY) is a major virulence determinant, known to induce pore-dependent pro-inflammatory responses. These in...
