The Role of Host-Generated H2S in Microbial Pathogenesis: New Perspectives on Tuberculosis.

abstract：:Deposition of Burkholderia pseudomallei within either the lungs or nasal passages of the Balb/c murine model resulted in different infection kinetics. The infection resulting from the inhalation of B. pseudomallei within a 12 μm particle aerosol was prolonged compared to a 1 μm particle aerosol with a mean time-to-dea...
