An in vitro model of granuloma-like cell aggregates substantiates early host immune responses against Mycobacterium massiliense infection
Mycobacterium massiliense (M. mass), belonging to the M. abscessus complex, is a rapidly growing mycobacterium that is known to cause tuberculous-like lesions in humans. To better understand the interaction between host cells and M. mass, we used a recently developed in vitro model of early granulom...
