Bactericidal antibiotic treatment induces damaging inflammation via TLR9 sensing of bacterial DNA
Abstract The immunologic consequences of using bactericidal versus bacteriostatic antibiotic treatments are unclear. We observed a bacteriostatic (growth halting) treatment was more protective than a bactericidal (bacteria killing) treatment in a murine peritonitis model. To understand this unexpect...
