Development of the immune response in pneumonia due to Staphylococcus aureus (part 4)

Abstract

In this article, based on the literature sources, the key role of chemokines of CC, CXS families and antimicrobial peptides in the elimination of Staphylococcus aureus is analyzed. The main mechanisms of the anti-staphylococcal activity of catelicidin LL-37 in the development of the immune response in pneumonia caused by Staphylococcus aureus are described in detail.
