Macrophage-induced reduction of bacteriophage density limits the efficacy of in vivo pulmonary phage therapy

Abstract The rise of antimicrobial resistance leads to renewed interest in evaluating phage therapy. In murine models highly effective treatment of acute pneumonia caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa relies on the synergistic antibacterial activity of bacteriophages with neutrophils. Here, we show that...
