説明

<jats:p>Six major lineages of<jats:italic>Mycobacterium tuberculosis</jats:italic>appear preferentially transmitted amongst distinct ethnic groups. We identified a deletion affecting<jats:italic>Rv1519</jats:italic>in CH, a strain isolated from a large outbreak in Leicester U.K., that coincidentally defines the East African-Indian lineage matching a major ethnic group in this city. In broth media, CH grew less rapidly and was less acidic and H<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>O<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>-tolerant than reference sequenced strains (CDC1551 and H37Rv). Nevertheless, CH was not impaired in its ability to grow in human monocyte-derived macrophages. When compared with CDC1551 and H37Rv, CH induced less protective IL-12p40 and more antiinflammatory IL-10 and IL-6 gene transcription and secretion from monocyte-derived macrophages. It thus appears that CH compensates microbiological attenuation by skewing the innate response toward phagocyte deactivation. Complementation of<jats:italic>Rv1519</jats:italic>, but none of nine additional genes absent from CH compared with the type strain, H37Rv, reversed the capacity of CH to elicit antiinflammatory IL-10 production by macrophages. The<jats:italic>Rv1519</jats:italic>polymorphism in<jats:italic>M. tuberculosis</jats:italic>confers an immune subverting phenotype that contributes to the persistence and outbreak potential of this lineage.</jats:p>
