Human macrophages are hosts for Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the causative agent of tuberculosis, which killed approximately 1.87 million people in 1997. Human alveolar macrophages do not express α- or β-defensins, broad-spectrum antimicrobial peptides which are expressed in macrophages from other sp...
