Sphingomyelin is critical in organizing phosphoinositide dynamics during phagocytic uptake of <i>Mycobacterium tuberculosis</i>

2019-03-01

Abstract excerpt

Tuberculosis, the pathological result of infection by Mycobacterium tuberculosis ( M.tb ), represents a massive and persistent global health burden with vast overrepresentation in regions with poor access to healthcare. This pathogen survives intracellularly within lung macrophages, and has been shown to extensively reprogram the host lipid compartment to the effect of enhanced survival and immune evasion. Sphin...
