Intracellular Mycobacterium leprae Utilizes Host Glucose as a Carbon Source in Schwann Cells

New approaches are needed to control leprosy, but understanding of the biology of the causative agent Mycobacterium leprae remains rudimentary, principally because the pathogen cannot be grown in axenic culture. Here, we applied (13)C isotopomer analysis to measure carbon metabolism of M. leprae in...
