The diversity of clinical <i>Mycobacterium abscessus</i> isolates in morphology, glycopeptidolipids and infection rates in a macrophage model

2024-03-01

Abstract excerpt

Mycobacterium abscessus (Mab) colonies adopt smooth (S) or rough (R) morphotypes, which are linked to the presence or absence of glycopeptidolipids (GPL), respectively. Though clinically relevant, the association between GPL levels, morphotype and pathogenesis are poorly understood. To investigate the degree of correlation between Mab morphology, GPL levels, and infectivity, we generated isolates from Mab-positive...
