High levels of serum mannose-binding lectin are associated with the severity of clinical signs of leptospirosis

High levels of serum mannose-binding lectin are associated with the severity of clinical signs of leptospirosis

The clinical heterogeneity observed in leptospirosis may be associated with host factors or bacteria virulence. Human serum mannose-binding lectin (MBL) recognizes many pathogens, and low levels of this lectin are associated with susceptibility to infection. MBL is also implicated in the modulation...
