Bacillus anthracis genomic DNA enhances lethal toxin–induced cytotoxicity through TNF-α production
BACKGROUND: Bacillus anthracis is the etiological agent of anthrax. Lethal toxin (LT) produced by B. anthracis is a well-known key virulence factor for anthrax because of its strong cytotoxic activity. However, little is known about the role of B. anthracis genomic DNA (BAG) in anthrax pathogenesis....
