Syndecans promote mycobacterial internalization by lung epithelial cells
- Abstract:
-
Pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) is an airborne disease caused by the intracellular bacterial pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). Alveolar epithelial cells and macrophages are the first point of contact for Mtb in the respiratory tract. However, the mechanisms of mycobacterial attachment to, and internalization by, nonprofessional phagocytes, such as epithelial cells, remain incompletely understood. We identified syndecan 4 (Sdc4) as mycobacterial attachment receptor on alveolar epithelial ...
