Parasites That Live Inside Cells Use Loophole To Thwart Immune System

Man, I haven't posted forever.

I wondered what the "mechanism" is.

"The researchers also traced the biochemical mechanism by which the organisms triggered arginase—finding that the microbes hijack the machinery by which the macrophages recognize invading pathogens."

It's so interesting to find out what those chemicals are that these intracellular pathogens use. And there are so many.
