“…Mycobacterial components, including surface lipids and proteins, have been observed in the infected cells outside of the mycobacterial phagosome, as well as in neighboring non-infected cells (Aliprantis et al, 1999; Beatty et al, 2001; Beatty et al, 2000; Beatty and Russell, 2000; Dao et al, 2004; Fineran et al, 2017; Harth et al, 1994; Harth et al, 1996; Korf et al, 2005; Neyrolles et al, 2001; Queiroz and Riley, 2017; Sakamoto et al, 2013; Sequeira et al, 2014), where they can influence the antigen presenting capacity of macrophages or interfere with other macrophage functions (Russell et al, 2002). Specifically, individual mycobacterial lipids, including Phosphatidylinositol mono- and di mannosides (PIMs), phosphatidylglycerol, cardiolipin, phosphatidylethanolamine, trehalose mono- and dimycolates are released into the macrophage and accumulate in late endosomes/lysosomes (Beatty et al, 2001; Beatty et al, 2000; Beatty and Russell, 2000; Russell et al, 2002).…”
