Abstract：
:In this review, an overview of the host's innate immune response against Mycobacterium tuberculosis will be provided. In particular, M. tuberculosis interaction with Toll-like receptors (TLRs), lung surfactant proteins and the antimicrobial mechanisms in the macrophage will be discussed along with their importance in shaping adaptive immunity to tuberculosis infection.

杂志文章,评审abstract：:Cancer metabolism is a well-known target of cancer therapeutics. Classically, cancer metabolism has been studied in terms of the dependence of cancer cells on crucial metabolites, such as glucose and glutamine. But, the accumulating data show that iron metabolism in tumor microenvironment is also an important factor i...
