Abstract

Mycoplasma pneumoniaeandStreptococcus pneumoniaeare the most common bacterial causes of pneumonia in children. The clinical characteristics of pneumonia differ significantly between the two bacteria. We aimed to elucidate the differences in pathogenesis betweenM. pneumoniaeandS. pneumoniaeby characterizing the respiratory epithelial cell immune response to both pathogens.
