A novel in vitro human macrophage model to study the persistence of Mycobacterium tuberculosis using Vitamin D and retinoic acid activated THP-1 macrophages
Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) replicates within the human macrophages and we investigated the activating effects of retinoic acid (RA) and vitamin D3 (VD) on macrophages in relation to the viability of Mtb. A combination of these vitamins (RAVD) enhanced the receptors on THP-1 macrophage (Mannose...
