Adipocyte Model of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Infection Reveals Differential Availability of Iron to Bacilli in the Lipid-Rich Caseous Environment

Mycobacterium tuberculosis, a successful human pathogen, utilizes multiple carbon sources from the host but adapts to a fatty-acid-rich environment in vivo. We sought to delineate the physiologic response of M. tuberculosis to a lipid-rich environment by using differentiated adipocytes as a model sy...
