Cell wall lipids from Mycobacterium bovis BCG are inflammatory when inoculated within a gel matrix: characterization of a new model of the granulomatous response to mycobacterial componentsElizabeth R Rhoades
Department of Microbiology and Immunology, College of Veterinary Medicine, Cornell University, Ithaca, NY 14853, USA
Tuberculosis (Edinb) 85:159-76. 2005..We submit that the matrix model presents pertinent features of the murine granulomatous response that will prove to be an adaptable method for study of this complex response...
Fibrinogen regulates the cytotoxicity of mycobacterial trehalose dimycolate but is not required for cell recruitment, cytokine response, or control of mycobacterial infectionKaori Sakamoto
Department of Pathology, College of Veterinary Medicine, 501 D W Brooks Dr, University of Georgia, Athens, GA 30602 7388, USA
Infect Immun 78:1004-11. 2010..In this model, fibrin(ogen) was not required for cell recruitment, cytokine response, or response to infection, but it promoted granulation tissue formation and suppressed leukocyte necrosis...
In vivo activity of released cell wall lipids of Mycobacterium bovis bacillus Calmette-Guérin is due principally to trehalose mycolatesRachel E Geisel
Department of Microbiology and Immunology, College of Veterinary Medicine, Cornell University, Ithaca, NY 14853, USA
J Immunol 174:5007-15. 2005..These results demonstrate that the trehalose mycolates, particularly trehalose dimycolate, are the most bioactive lipids in the BCG extract, inducing a proinflammatory cascade that influences granuloma formation...
Characterization of sulfolipids of Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv by multiple-stage linear ion-trap high-resolution mass spectrometry with electrospray ionization reveals that the family of sulfolipid II predominatesElizabeth R Rhoades
Department of Microbiology and Immunology, C5 109 Vet Medical Center, Cornell University, Ithaca, New York 14853, United States
Biochemistry 50:9135-47. 2011..We redefined the structure of this important lipid family that was misassigned using the traditional methods 40 years ago...
Mycobacterium abscessus Glycopeptidolipids mask underlying cell wall phosphatidyl-myo-inositol mannosides blocking induction of human macrophage TNF-alpha by preventing interaction with TLR2Elizabeth R Rhoades
Cornell Nanoscale Science and Technology Facility, Cornell University, Ithaca, NY 14853, USA
J Immunol 183:1997-2007. 2009..Conversely spontaneous "unmasking" of cell wall lipids may promote airway inflammation...
Association of a macrophage galactoside-binding protein with Mycobacterium-containing phagosomesWandy L Beatty
Department of Molecular Microbiology, Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, MO 63110, USA
Cell Microbiol 4:167-76. 2002..Infection of macrophages from gal-3-deficient mice indicated that the protein did not play a role in infection in vitro. In contrast, infection of gal-3-deficient mice revealed a reduced capacity to clear late but not early infection...
Structural characterization of phosphatidyl-myo-inositol mannosides from Mycobacterium bovis Bacillus Calmette Gúerin by multiple-stage quadrupole ion-trap mass spectrometry with electrospray ionization. II. Monoacyl- and diacyl-PIMsFong Fu Hsu

J Am Soc Mass Spectrom 18:479-92. 2007..bovis Bacillus Calmette Guérin...
Structural characterization of phosphatidyl-myo-inositol mannosides from Mycobacterium bovis Bacillus Calmette Guérin by multiple-stage quadrupole ion-trap mass spectrometry with electrospray ionization. I. PIMs and lyso-PIMsFong Fu Hsu
Mass Spectrometry Resource, Division of Endocrinology, Diabetes, Metabolism, and Lipid Research, Department of Internal Medicine, Washington University School of Medicine, St Louis, Missouri 63110, USA
J Am Soc Mass Spectrom 18:466-78. 2007..The combined structural information from the MS(2) and MS(3) product-ion spectra permit the complex structures of PIMs that consist of various isomers to be unveiled in detail...
Association between sputum smear status and local immune responses at the site of disease in HIV-infected patients with pulmonary tuberculosisHenry C Mwandumba
Malawi Liverpool Wellcome Trust Clinical Research Programme, College of Medicine, Box 30096, Blantyre 3, Malawi
Tuberculosis (Edinb) 88:58-63. 2008..The local immune responses may affect the clinical presentation of active pulmonary TB in HIV-infected patients...
