Rat Neutrophils Prevent the Development of Tuberculosis

To understand the role of neutrophils in the development of rat tuberculosis in vivo, we utilized lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced neutrophilia in the lungs. LPS (50 μg/ml) was administered intratracheally to male Fischer rats. Rats were then infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis by an airborne r...
