In order to obtain a high spatio-temporal resolution of the infection process of the gut pathogen Yersinia pseudotuberculosis, we will image the recruitment and dynamics of immune cell populations and characterize Yersinia-targeted immune cells in infected lymphoid tissue of mice during the entire course of the infection. In this context, we will also analyse the role of platelets for neutrophil recruitment and address different neutrophil functions, including NET formation, and how they are manipulated by bacterial evasion mechanisms.
