CULTURE OF MYCOBACTERIUM SMEGMATIS IN DIFFERENT CARBON SOURCES TO INDUCE IN VITRO CHOLESTEROL CONSUMPTION LEADS TO ALTERATIONS IN THE HOST CELLS AFTER INFECTION: A MACROPHAGE PROTEOMICS ANALYSIS

Culture of Mycobacterium smegmatis in Different Carbon Sources to Induce In Vitro Cholesterol Consumption Leads to Alterations in the Host Cells after Infection: A Macrophage Proteomics Analysis

During tuberculosis, Mycobacterium uses host macrophage cholesterol as a carbon and energy source.To mimic these conditions, Mycobacterium smegmatis can be cultured in minimal medium (MM) to induce cholesterol consumption in vitro.During cultivation, M.smegmatis consumes NORMAL/OILY HAIR CONDITIONER MM cholesterol and changes the accumulation of ce

Typical meteorological conditions associated with extreme nitrogen dioxide (NO2) pollution events over Scandinavia

Characterizing typical meteorological conditions associated with extreme pollution events helps to better understand the role of local meteorology in governing the transport and distribution of pollutants in the atmosphere.The knowledge of their co-variability could further help to evaluate and constrain chemistry transport models.Hence, in this st
