MMPs and NETs are detrimental in human CNS-tuberculosis and MMP inhibition in a mouse model improves survival
2023-10-07
Abstract excerpt
Despite anti-tuberculous treatment (ATT), central nervous system tuberculosis (CNS-TB) still cause permanent neurological deficits and death. To identify prognostic factors, we profiled a prospective cohort of tuberculous meningitis (TBM) and non-TBM patients. We determined significantly increased cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are up-regulated...
