Characterizing virulence-specific perturbations in the mitochondrial function of macrophages infected with mycobacterium tuberculosis
To probe how the pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis controls host cellular death pathways, we compared mitochondrial responses in human macrophages infected either with the avirulent mycobacterial strain H37Ra, or its virulent counterpart H37Rv. Following H37Ra infection, induction of the apoptotic response was foreshadowed by the early suppression of stress-induced mitochondrial activity. In ...
متن کاملAnalysis of Differentially Expressed Proteins in Mycobacterium avium-Infected Macrophages Comparing with Mycobacterium tuberculosis-Infected Macrophages
Mycobacterium avium (MA) belongs to the intracellular parasitic bacteria. To better understand how MA survives within macrophages and the different pathogenic mechanisms of MA and Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB), tandem mass tag (TMT) and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) analysis have been used to determine the proteins which are differentially expressed in MA-infected...
متن کاملBrucella melitensis and Mycobacterium tuberculosis depict overlapping gene expression patterns induced in infected THP-1 macrophages
Pathogens infecting mammalian cells have developed various strategies to suppress and evade their hosts’ defensive mechanisms. In this line, the intracellular bacteria that are able to survive and propagate within their host cells must have developed strategies to avert their host’s killing attitude. Studying the interface of host-pathogen confrontation can provide valuable information for defi...
متن کاملStrain virulence and the lysosomal response in macrophages infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
Strains H37Ra and H37Rv, attenuated and virulent variants, respectively, of the original human strain H37 of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, were used to infect cultures of mouse peritoneal macrophages. Bacterial viability of each strain was assessed over a 2-week period, and the cellular response to H37Ra during the first week was observed using electron microscopy. Prelabeling of secondary lysoso...
متن کاملClade-Specific Virulence Patterns of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Complex Strains in Human Primary Macrophages and Aerogenically Infected Mice
UNLABELLED In infection experiments with genetically distinct Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC) strains, we identified clade-specific virulence patterns in human primary macrophages and in mice infected by the aerosol route, both reflecting relevant model systems. Exclusively human-adapted M. tuberculosis lineages, also termed clade I, comprising "modern" lineages, such as Beijing and E...
