Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Cough is a hallmark sign of tuberculosis and key driver of transmission. While traditionally attributed to host-driven inflammation, we previously demonstrated that Mycobacterium tuberculosis lipid extract (Mtb extract) and its component sulfolipid-1 (SL-1) directly activate nociceptive neurons to induce cough in guinea pigs. However, the cellular mechanisms by which Mtb extract and SL-1 modula...
