Mechanisms of Drug-Induced Tolerance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis
Clinical Microbiology Reviews, 2020 Successful treatment of tuberculosis (TB) can be hampered by Mycobacterium tuberculosis populations that are temporarily able to survive antibiotic pressure in the absence of drug resistance-conferring mutations, a phenomenon termed drug tolerance.

Metabolic principles of persistence and pathogenicity in Mycobacterium tuberculosis
Nature Reviews Microbiology, 2018 Metabolism was once relegated to the supply of energy and biosynthetic precursors, but it has now become clear that it is a specific mediator of nearly all physiological processes. In the context of microbial pathogenesis, metabolism has expanded outside
