Virulence of Mycobacterium intracellulare clinical strains in a mouse model of lung infection – Role of neutrophilic inflammation in disease severity
2022-09-22
Abstract excerpt
Mycobacterium intracellulare is a major etiological agent of Mycobacterium avium-intracellulare pulmonary disease (MAC-PD). However, the characteristics of the virulence of M. intracellulare and the in vivo chemotherapeutic efficacy remain unclear. In this study, we examined the virulence of nine M. intracellulare strains with different clinical phenotypes and genotypes in C57BL/6 mice. We classified three types o...
