ABSTRACT Monocytes arriving at the site of infection differentiate into functional effector macrophages to replenish the resident sentinel cells. Bordetella pertussis, the pertussis agent, secretes an adenylate cyclase toxin-hemolysin (CyaA) that binds myeloid phagocytes through complement receptor...
