Mycolactone Diffuses from Mycobacterium ulcerans–Infected Tissues and Targets Mononuclear Cells in Peripheral Blood and Lymphoid Organs
BACKGROUND: Buruli ulcer (BU) is a progressive disease of subcutaneous tissues caused by Mycobacterium ulcerans. The pathology of BU lesions is associated with the local production of a diffusible substance, mycolactone, with cytocidal and immunosuppressive properties. The defective inflammatory res...
