Primary tuberculous mycobacterial granulomas provide a niche for superinfecting Mycobacterium abscessus

Denise Wee, Manitosh Pandey, Yao Chen…·Stefan H. Oehlers

The paper shows that Mycobacterium abscessus grows preferentially in granulomas formed by prior Mycobacterium marinum infection in zebrafish, exploiting a nutrient-rich niche.
