Once feared as a deadly intracellular bacterium with the
extraordinary capacity to survive a wide array of arduous external
stressors, Listeria monocytogenes is increasingly recognized as a
preferred vector for delivering anti-infective and anti-cancer
vaccine molecules. A reliable, single-source reference on the
fundamental aspects of this bacterium is crucial to support future
study and further the advancement of biomedical sciences and
intervention strategies. Drawn from an international panel of
scientists with notable expertise in their respective fields, the
Handbook of Listeria monocytogenes is divided into four sections:
Section I discusses the biology and pathogenicity of this
bacterium, including epidemiology and stress responses. Section II
demonstrates identification and detection techniques such as
phenotypic and genotypic identification, strain typing, and
virulence determination. Section III details the current knowledge
of genetic manipulation of Listeria, including comparative
genomics, genomic divisions, epidemic clones and population
structure, and analysis of cell envelope proteins. Section IV
covers innate and adaptive immunity against Listeria, and examines
the use of this bacterium for anti-infective and anti-cancer
vaccine development. The first comprehensive compilation of
knowledge in this area, this handbook is an indispensable reference
for anyone embarking on the path of manipulation of Listeria as
either a model for the study of the host-bacterium relationship or
as a tool for delivering protective molecules to cytoplasm.
