Subunit vaccine protects against a clinical isolate of Mycobacterium avium in wild type and immunocompromised mouse models

Abstract The nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) Mycobacterium avium is a clinically significant pathogen that can cause a wide range of maladies, including tuberculosis-like pulmonary disease. An immunocompromised host status, either genetically or acutely acquired, presents a large risk for progress...
