FOXO3 Transcription Factor Regulates IL-10 Expression in Mycobacteria-Infected Macrophages, Tuning Their Polarization and the Subsequent Adaptive Immune Response
12 Dec 2019
Abstract excerpt
Alveolar Macrophages play a key role in the development of a robust adaptive immune response against the agent of Tuberculosis (TB), Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M.tb). However, macrophage response is often hampered by the production of IL-10, a potent suppressor of the host immune response. The secretion of IL-10 correlates with TB pathogenesis and persistence in host tissues. Concordantly, inhibition of IL- 10...
