Biochem/physiol Actions

Cord factor is a glycolipid released from Mycobacterium that becomes toxic and antigenic when it interacts with cell surface lipids. It activates macrophages to release inflammatory cytokines and induces thymic atrophy and granuloma formation in lung and other organs. It is responsible for the necrosis and cavitation observed in secondary tuberculosis.

C-type lectin receptors expressed in APCs are recently defined pattern recognition receptors that play a crucial role in immune responses against pathogen-associated molecular patterns. Among pathogen-associated molecular patterns, cord factor (trehalose-6,6'-dimycolate [TDM]) is the most potent immunostimulatory component of the
