Interaction of Quinolones with Host—Parasite Relationship

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Handbook of Experimental Pharmacology ((HEP,volume 127))

Abstract

The interactions of antibacterial agents with the host-parasite relationship are diverse (Fig. 1). First, the infectious process — and thus the host-parasite relationship — commences by adherence of bacteria to and colonization of epithelial surfaces, followed by penetration into and dissemination within the macroorganism. Antibiosis interferes with these stages of infection.
