O mecanismo de interação entre o Mycobacterium leprae e as células neurais não está esclarecido até o momento. Não há interpretação satisfatória do tropismo da bactéria ao sistema nervoso periférico, em particular. O presente estudo é uma revisão da microfisiologia da estrutura do aparelho extracelular, ligado às células de Schwann, assim como a descrição das unidades morfológicas, provavelmente envolvidas no processo de ligação à parede celular da bactéria.The mechanism of interaction between Mycobacterium leprae and neural cells has not been elucidated so far. No satisfactory interpretation exists as to the bacterium tropism to the peripheral nervous system in particular. The present study is a review of the micro-physiology of the extrac...
