There is mounting evidence that the hemostatic system is critical in host responses to
bacterial infection. Invasive bacteria have evolved virulence strategies to interact with host
hemostatic factors such as plasminogen and fibrinogen for infection. Furthermore, genetic
variations in host hemostatic factors also influence host response to bacterial infection.
