The bacillary and macrophage response to hypoxia in tuberculosis and the consequences for T cell antigen recognition [PDF]
M. tuberculosis is a facultative anaerobe and its characteristic pathological hallmark, the granuloma, exhibits hypoxia in humans and in most experimental models. Thus the host and bacillary adaptation to hypoxia is of central importance in understanding
