GTS-21, an α7nAChR agonist, increases pulmonary bacterial clearance in mice by restoring hyperoxia-compromised macrophage function
BACKGROUND: Mechanical ventilation, in combination with supraphysiological concentrations of oxygen (i.e., hyperoxia), is routinely used to treat patients with respiratory distress, such as COVID-19. However, prolonged exposure to hyperoxia compromises the clearance of invading pathogens by impairin...
