Loperamide Restricts Intracellular Growth of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in Lung Macrophages.

abstract：:Cigarette smoking and aging are major risk factors for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. An unsolved question is whether elderly lungs are particularly vulnerable to cigarette smoke (CS) exposure. In this study, we used a mouse model to test the hypothesis that aging increases the susceptibility to CS-induced pul...
