Such a neat story about bacterial virulence factor (EsxM) contributing to bone dissemination of TB disease through actions on macrophage motility. @cellpress

Unlikely to be the whole story, and it's taking a leap from zebrafish model to extrapolate human TB disease phenotype, but v plausible that bacterial manipulation of host immunobiology can alter natural history of disease.
