Inhibition of Pseudomonas aeruginosa secreted virulence factors reduces lung inflammation in CF mice
25 Jun 2018
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Cystic fibrosis (CF) lung infection is a complex condition where opportunistic pathogens and defective immune system cooperate in developing a constant cycle of infection and inflammation. The major pathogen, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, secretes a multitude of virulence factors involved in host immune response and lung tissue damage. In this study, we examined the possible anti-inflammatory effects of...
