The directed killing of a bacterium by a neutrophil. A set of reactions, specific to males, that are triggered in response to the presence of a bacterium that act to protect the cell or organism. Reactions triggered in response to the presence of a Gram-positive bacterium that act to protect the cell or organism. A response to non-pathogenic bacteria that confers broad spectrum systemic resistance to disease that does not depend upon salicylic acid signaling. A change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a disturbance in organismal or cellular homeostasis, usually, but not necessarily, exogenous (e.g. temperature, humidity, ionizing radiation). Reactions, triggered in response to the presence of a foreign body or the occurrence of an injury, which result in restriction of damage to the organism attacked or prevention/recovery from the infection caused by the attack. A response of an organism to a bacterium that prevents the occurrence or spread of disease. A change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a stimulus from a bacterium. Reactions triggered in response to the presence of a Gram-negative bacterium that act to protect the cell or organism. The series of molecular signals initiated by binding of peptidoglycan to a receptor on the surface of the target cell and mediated by Imd. The main outcome of the Imd signaling is the production of antimicrobial peptides. An immune response against bacteria mediated through a body fluid. Examples of this process are the antibacterial humoral responses in Mus musculus and Drosophila melanogaster. Reactions triggered in response to the presence of a bacterium that act to protect the cell or organism. A change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a stimulus from another living organism.
