Host-directed therapies for antimicrobial resistant respiratory tract infections

Current Opinion in Pulmonary Medicine, 2016
Antimicrobial-resistant respiratory tract infections (AMR-RTIs) are increasing, presenting important management challenges worldwide. Current management of AMR-RTI patients focuses on pathogen-directed antimicrobial treatment. Overt lung inflammation, parenchymal damage, and ineffective immune activation perpetrate increased patient morbidity and ...
