Lung surfactant reduces Staphylococcus aureus cytotoxicity and protects host immune cells from membrane damage
ABSTRACT In this study, we identify that lung surfactant significantly reduces the cytotoxicity of Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) membrane-damaging toxins. Data demonstrate that natural surfactants from mice and rats and commercially available surfactant, Infasurf, protect human primary cells (ne...
