Mycobacterium abscessus virulence traits unraveled by transcriptomic profiling in amoeba and macrophages
8 Nov 2019
Abstract excerpt
Free-living amoebae are thought to represent an environmental niche in which amoeba-resistant bacteria may evolve towards pathogenicity. To get more insights into factors playing a role for adaptation to intracellular life, we characterized the transcriptomic activities of the emerging pathogen Mycobacterium abscessus in amoeba and murine macrophages (Mϕ) and compared them with the intra-amoebal transcriptome of...
