The role of special immune cells called B-cells.
“A properly functioning immune system is key to resolve bacterial pneumonia. Researchers have now found that specific immune cells are crucial for recovery. The researchers’ work paves the way for developing new vaccines, which would also counteract the emerging resistance to antibiotics.” University of Zurich. “Pneumonia: Treatment with vaccines instead of antibiotics.” ScienceDaily.
