Methamphetamine impairs IgG1-mediated phagocytosis and killing of Cryptococcus neoformans by J774.16 macrophage- and NR-9640-microglia-like cells | Infection and Immunity

Our findings suggest that METH abrogates immune cellular and molecular functions and may be deadly to phagocytic cells, which may result in increased susceptibility of users to acquire infectious diseases.
