Focuses on microbial invasion strategies of pathogen uptake. This work presents the phagocytic process from the viewpiont of the host cell. It emphasizes on relatively early events such as mutual recognition, cell entry, and response, rather than on longterm changes in gene expression by either host cell or pathogen.
