Buruli ulcer: The Efficacy of Innate Immune Defense May Be a Key Determinant for the Outcome of Infection With Mycobacterium ulcerans
Buruli ulcer (BU) is a neglected, tropical infectious disease of the skin and the subcutaneous tissue caused by Mycobacterium ulcerans. This pathogen has emerged as a new species from a common ancestor with Mycobacterium marinum by acquisition of the virulence plasmid pMUM. The plasmid encodes enzym...
