Abstract

M. tuberculosis (Mtb) within the caseous core of necrotic granulomas and cavities is extremely drug tolerant and presents a significant hurdle to treatment success and relapse prevention. Many in vitro models of nonreplicating persistence have been developed to characterize the physiologic and metabolic adaptations of Mtb and identify compounds active against this treatment-recalcitrant population.
