Clofazimine modulates the expression of lipid metabolism proteins in Mycobacterium leprae-infected macrophages.
Mycobacterium leprae (M. leprae) lives and replicates within macrophages in a foamy, lipid-laden phagosome. The lipids provide essential nutrition for the mycobacteria, and M. leprae infection modulates expression of important host proteins related to lipid metabolism. Thus, M. leprae infection incr...
