Characterisation of dysregulated proteins in macrophages infected with Mycobacterium smegmatis focusing on matrix metalloproteases and their effectors

Cavitation is a key facilitator in transmission of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tb). Upregulation of matrix metalloproteases (MMPs) has been documented in patients with tuberculosis (TB), while their tissue inhibitor (TIMPs) levels remained the same. Animals which can develop cavities have well-co...
