L. monocytogenes es una bacteria peculiar. No solo es capaz de resistir la voracidad de los macrófagos (células del sistema inmune que, cuando un microorganismo patógeno entra en nuestro organismo, se activan, lo persiguen y destruyen), sino que incluso puede invadir otros tipos de células no fagocíticas, como epiteliales, del hígado e incluso neuronas. Una vez dentro, la bacteria puede crecer, reproducirse y moverse por el interior de la célula. Esto es lo que se denomina un patógeno intracelular facultativo.
