Tufts researchers identify how Yersinia spreads within infected organs

(Tufts University, Health Sciences Campus) Researchers at Tufts have identified how one type of bacteria, Yersinia, immobilizes the immune system in order to grow in the organ tissues of mice. To do so, the researchers extended the use of a technique and suggest that it could be used to study other bacteria that use the same or similar means of infection.
