| dc.description.abstract | Mycobacterium tuberculosis is able to establish a chronic colonization of lung macrophages in a controlled replication manner, giving rise to a so-called latent infection. Conversely, when intracellular bacteria undergo actively uncontrolled replication rates, they provide the switch for the active infection called tuberculosis to occur. Our group found that the pathogen is able to manipulate the activity of endolysosomal enzymes, cathepsins, directly at the level of gene expression or indirectly by regulating their natural inhibitors, cystatins. To provide evidence for the crucial role of cathepsin manipulation for the success of tuberculosis bacilli in their intracellular survival, we used liposomal delivery of saquinavir. This protease inhibitor was previously found to be able to increase cathepsin proteolytic activity, overcoming the pathogen induced blockade. In this study, we demonstrate that incorporation in liposomes was able to increase the efficiency of saquinavir internalization in macrophages, reducing cytotoxicity at higher concentrations. Consequently, our results show a significant impact on the intracellular killing not only to reference and clinical strains susceptible to current antibiotic therapy but also to multidrug- and extensively drug-resistant (XDR) Mtb strains. Altogether, this indicates the manipulation of cathepsins as a fine-tuning strategy used by the pathogen to survive and replicate in host cells. | pt_PT |
