Interferon-gamma impairs phagocytosis of Escherichia coli by primary murine peritoneal macrophages stimulated with LPS and differentially modulates proinflammatory cytokine release
Introduction: Interferon-γ levels are increased upon viral infections and during inflamm-aging. Resistance to infections due to Escherichia coli (E. coli), a major cause of bacteriaemia and sepsis, is impaired in aged individuals, partly due to altered phagocytic capacity and cytokine release of imm...
