Abstract

Autophagy inhibits survival of intracellular Mycobacterium tuberculosis when induced by rapamycin or interferon γ (IFN-γ), but it remains unclear whether M. tuberculosis itself can induce autophagy and whether T cells play a role in M. tuberculosis-mediated autophagy. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of M. tuberculosis on autophagy in human primary macrophages and the role of specific T cells in this process.
