The Role of Biofilms, Bacterial Phenotypes, and Innate Immune Response in Mycobacterium avium Colonization to Infection.

Journal of theoretical biology - 7 Feb 2022

Weathered Catherine, Pennington Kelly, Escalante Patricio, Pienaar Elsje

Abstract excerpt

Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC), is known for colonizing and infecting humans following inhalation of the bacteria. MAC pulmonary disease is notoriously difficult to treat and prone to recurrence. Both the incidence and prevalence MAC pulmonary disease have been increasing globally. MAC is well known to form biofilms in the environment. In vitro, these biofilms have been shown to aid MAC in epithelial cell...
