ABSTRACT
Leukocidins belong to a group of bicomponent leukotoxins produced by certain Staphyloccocus aureus strains. Some in vitro and in vivo studies performed on immunocompetent cell populations in different animal species proved the modulatory properties of leukocidins on the phagocyte and lymphocyte activities.
