Abstract
To deal with an infection, the organism resorts to nonmutually exclusive strategies: resistance, that is, neutralization or destruction of the pathogen; or tolerance, the ability to withstand damages inflicted by the pathogen or by host defense. In this issue of Cell Host & Microbe, Shinzawa et al. (2009) identify p38-mediated phagocytic encapsulation as a potential tolerance mechanism.
