الوصف
Monocyte/macrophage fusion is associated with chronic inflammation and is thought to be important for immune defence. Monocyte fusion leading to multinucleated giant cell formation (MNGC) has been linked with the pathogenesis of Burkholderia pseudomallei a causative agent of melioidosis disease, a severe invasive disease endemic in south Asia and North Australia. However the mechanism of B.p-induced MNGC formation is unclear.
