Inhibition of infection-induced vascular permeability modulates host leukocyte recruitment to Mycobacterium marinum granulomas in zebrafish

J. Y. Kam, T. Cheng, D. C. Garland, W. J. J. Britton, D. M. Tobin, S. H. Oehlers

The paper shows that inhibiting vascular permeability in zebrafish reduces granuloma hypoxia and shifts immune cell recruitment from neutrophils to T cells, improving mycobacterial infection outcomes.

Treatment of infection-induced vascular pathologies is protective against persistent rough morphotype Mycobacterium abscessus infection in zebrafish

J. Y. Kam, K. Wright, W. J. Britton, S. H. Oehlers

The paper identifies anti-angiogenic and vascular normalizing therapies as effective against rough M. abscessus infection in zebrafish, but finds no effect of anti-platelet drugs.

Rough and smooth variant Mycobacterium abscessus infections are differentially controlled by host immunity during chronic infection of adult zebrafish

E. Hortle, J. Y. Kam, E. Krogman, S. E. Warner, K. Luo, T. Cheng, P. Manuneedhi Cholan, K. Kikuchi, J. A. Triccas, W. J. Britton, M. D. Johansen, L. Kremer, S. H. Oehlers

This study compares immune responses to smooth and rough variants of Mycobacterium abscessus in zebrafish, showing differential control by host immunity.

High content analysis of granuloma histology and neutrophilic inflammation in adult zebrafish infected with Mycobacterium marinum

T. Cheng, J. Y. Kam, M. D. Johansen, S. Oehlers

The paper develops high-content analysis workflows to study granuloma histology and neutrophilic inflammation in adult zebrafish infected with Mycobacterium marinum, finding an inverse relationship between granuloma necrosis and neutrophil recruitment.
