Apoptosis of Epithelial Cells and Macrophages due to Nonpigmented Serratia marcescens Strains

Serratia marcescens strains are opportunistic pathogens that are increasingly recognized as a cause of severe nosocomial infections. In this study we observed interactions between nonpigmented strains with human epithelial and macrophage-like cells. The strains revealed hemolytic activity only after...
