Mycobacterial PIMs inhibit host inflammatory responses through CD14-dependent and CD14-independent mechanisms.
Mycobacteria develop strategies to evade the host immune system. Among them, mycobacterial LAM or PIMs inhibit the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines by activated macrophages. Here, using synthetic PIM analogues, we analyzed the mode of action of PIM anti-inflammatory effects. Synthetic PIM(1)...
