Cysteamine-mediated clearance of antibiotic-resistant pathogens in human cystic fibrosis macrophages.
Members of the Burkholderia cepacia complex are virulent, multi-drug resistant pathogens that survive and replicate intracellularly in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). We have discovered that B. cenocepacia cannot be cleared from CF macrophages due to defective autophagy, causing continued system...
