Abstract excerpt
The ability of phosphatidylglycerol (DSPG) liposomes to prevent adherence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa to primary cultures of non-cystic fibrosis (CF) and delta F508 homozygous CF human respiratory epithelium was studied. The culture model was characterized by the simultaneous presence of various cellular phenotypes: well-differentiated respiratory epithelial cells, ciliated and nonciliated cells, and migrating...
