Popis: Pathogenic mycobacteria multiply within macrophagic phagosomes. They produce abundantly glycopeptidolipids (GPLs) in their envelope. GPL. suspensions increased membrane permeability and uncoupled oxidative phosphorylation in mitochondria. Disturbances of the macrophage membrane may take part in intracellular survival.
