New Paper: Tacrolimus Impairs Kupffer Cell Capacity to Control Bacteremia: Why Transplant Recipients Are Susceptible to Infection
Congratulations to our Platform 1 Co-Lead Dr. Paul Kubes on this recent publication! Using a define mouse model of acute methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) bacteremia along with intravital microscopy, Deppermann C, et al. unravelled why Tacrolimus, a drug used to prevent rejection in solid organ transplant recipients increases the susceptibility of transplant recipient to develop […]
