Lipid profiling in nontuberculous mycobacterial pulmonary disease based on geospatial locations and disease severity
TG levels were elevated in lung lesions affected by NTM-PD but decreased in serum as disease severity increased, suggesting TG accumulation in lung tissues. These findings highlighted the role of lipid metabolism in the pathogenesis of NTM-PD.
