Dysfunctional CFTR alters the bactericidal activity of human macrophages against Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
Chronic inflammation of the lung, as a consequence of persistent bacterial infections by several opportunistic pathogens represents the main cause of mortality and morbidity in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. Mechanisms leading to increased susceptibility to bacterial infections in CF are not complet...
