Microarray analysis of <it>Shigella flexneri</it>-infected epithelial cells identifies host factors important for apoptosis inhibition

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p><it>Shigella flexneri </it>inhibits apoptosis in infected epithelial cells. In order to understand the pro-survival effects induced by the bacteria, we utilized apoptosis-specific microarrays to analyze the changes in euk...
