Survival of diverse M. smegmatis strains in macrophages. THP-1-derived macrophage cells were infected with M. smegmatis WT, i regX3, and OE regX3 strains. Survival of these strains were determined in different time, 2, 12, 24, 36, and 48 h. Cells were harvested at different time points to determine the concentrations of live M. smegmatis (n = 6). Data are presented as means ± SEM calculated from three independent experiments. Unpaired two-tailed Student’s t-test, **p < 0.01 and ***p < 0.001.
