Corticosteroids inhibit Mycobacterium tuberculosis-induced necrotic host cell death by abrogating mitochondrial membrane permeability transition

Corticosteroids are host-directed drugs that enhance survival of tuberculosis patients through unclear mechanisms. Here, Gräb et al. show that corticosteroids inhibit necrotic death of cells infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis by facilitating MKP-1-dependent dephosphorylation of p38 MAPK.
