IL-6 Prevents Lung Macrophage Death and Lung Inflammation Injury by Inhibiting GSDME- and GSDMD-Mediated Pyroptosis during Pneumococcal Pneumosepsis

IL-6 Prevents Lung Macrophage Death and Lung Inflammation Injury by Inhibiting GSDME- and GSDMD-Mediated Pyroptosis during Pneumococcal Pneumosepsis

ABSTRACT Streptococcus pneumoniae is a leading bacterial cause of a wide range of infections, and pneumococcal pneumosepsis causes high mortality in hosts infected with antibiotic-resistant strains and those who cannot resolve ongoing inflammation. The factors which influence the development and out...
