| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
TNFα contributes to the inhibition of bacterial growth in cells with inducting apoptotic cell death. Anaerobes produces some toxins and they may induces the receptors on the airway, which pneumococcus requires to attach to the respiratory tract. The toxins produced by anaerobes can progress the severity of pneumococcal pneumonia. The severity of infection may affect the effectiveness of antimicrobials in the treatment of pneumonia. Therefore, we need further studies for the evaluation of severity of infections and progress the strategies of choice the appropreate treatment.
