New insight into sensing and function of the bacterial lysate OM-85
Bacterial lysates are widely used in the clinic to minimize the pathologic consequences of respiratory infections. Our new study shows how one such lysate, OM-85, works on human myeloid cells to trigger an immunomodulatory gene circuit. Bellinzona, March 21, 2024 – OM-85 is a bacterial lysate commonly used in clinical practice to reduce duration and frequency […]
