Grant Activity:
Contribution of diverse host cell death programs to the pathogenesis of tuberculosis and their therapeutic implications
Purpose:
Tuberculosis has eclipsed all other infections in causing the highest death toll for humanity other the ages. The pathogen is becoming resistant to all of our antibiotics. We are developing therapies that enhance the body’s ability to clear infection. The TB germ lives inside our cells and this niche is essential for it to cause disease. We use drugs that activate an ancient evolutionary conserved mechanism that causes infected cells to die in an altruistic attempt to eliminate infection.
