Comparative lung images from BALB/c mice infected with different MAC isolates, showing varying degrees of tissue damage. Representative lung slices display inflammation (in green) and granulomas (in red), with MAC101 and MAC104 infections showing larger affected areas than MAC2285R. Multi‑scale panels include whole‑lung views and higher‑magnification sections highlighting lesion severity and distribution.
Timothy Shaw, Mercedes Gonzalez-Juarrero & co investigated Mycobacterium avium complex isolate-dependent differences in #PulmonaryDisease, quantified them and added novel insights into #lung immune cell profiling and whole-body plethysmography in prolonged infection.
