“…We did not ¢nd evidence of infection in the embryonic lungs which, before the egg hatches, are buds of tissue only 3^4 mm long that have not yet begun to function in breathing. In adult birds, M. avium infections cause nodules in the intestinal tract and granulomas in the liver, spleen and bone marrow; granulomas are seldom found in the lungs [2]. The question remains if the egg su¤ciently mimics the conditions found in the immunocompromised human to the extent that the bacterial genes responsible for human disease can be di¡erentially expressed and identi¢ed using this model system.…”
