All-trans Retinoic Acid Augments Autophagy during Intracellular Bacterial Infection.

abstract：:Tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-3 (TIMP-3) has emerged as a key mediator of inflammation. Recently, we reported that the resolution of inflammation is impaired in Timp3(-/-) mice after bleomycin-induced lung injury. Here, we demonstrate that after LPS instillation (another model of acute lung injury), Timp3(-/-...
