Abstract

Central necrosis of granulomas is linked to progression of major diseases, including tuberculosis and atherosclerosis. In this issue of Cell Host and Microbe, Paga net al. (2015) reveal that necrotic granulomas develop when macrophage supply is insufficient. These findings suggest augmenting macrophage availability as a therapeutic strategy in tuberculosis.
