PERFORIN 2 DEFENSE AGAINST INVASIVE AND MULTIDRUG RESISTANT PATHOGENS |
摘要 |
Perforin-2 (P2) is expressed by fibroblasts, microglia and macrophages and was found to be responsible for killing bacteria, for example, Mycobacteria smegmatis, M. avium, Salmonellae, MRSA (drug resistant Stapholococci), E coli. Compounds identified by screening assays are selected based on the effects of these compounds on P2. Use of these compounds in the treatment of infectious diseases, in particular, bacteria and antibiotic-resistant bacteria is also provided. |
