Naturally Acquired Human Immunity to Pneumococcus Is Dependent on Antibody to Protein Antigens.
Naturally acquired immunity against invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) is thought to be dependent on anti-capsular antibody. However nasopharyngeal colonisation by Streptococcus pneumoniae also induces antibody to protein antigens that could be protective. We have used human intravenous immunoglobu...
