A) lipopolysaccharides

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Intracellular pathogens can produce toxins called leukocidins that can kill phagocytes. LPS (lipopolysaccharides) are not specific to intracellular pathogens and PAMPs (pathogen-associated molecular patterns) and PRRs (pattern recognition receptors) are involved in the recognition of pathogens by the immune system, not in killing phagocytes.
