Аннотация: Tuberculosis (TB) is a dangerous airborne disease caused byMycobacterium tuberculosis(Mtb) and characterizedby a tight interplay between pathogen and host cells, mainly alveolar macrophages. Studies of the mechanisms ofMtbsurvival within human cells during TB disease are extremely important for the development of new stra-tegies anПоказать полностьюd drugs for TB treatment. We have used theex vivocultures of alveolar macrophages and histologicalsections obtained from the resected lungs of patients with pulmonary TB to establish the unique features ofMtblifestyle in host cells. Our data indicate thatMtbwith different virulence, as single and in colonies, with orwithout cording morphology, are exclusively intravacuolar pathogens with intact phagosomal membranes inviable host cells of TB patients andMtb-infected guinea pig. Mycobacteria were detected in the cytoplasm and/ordamaged vacuoles only in alveolar macrophages with morphological signs of cell death after prolongedex vivoculture, howeverMtbwere found inside phagosomes in viable alveolar macrophages or cells with apoptotic/necrotic morphology in the sameex vivocell culture. TheMtbphagosomes interacted with human differentendocytic pathways, but inhibited phagolysosomal biogenesis, while intracellular vesicles containingMtbpro-ducts were fused with lysosomes in the same host cells.
