La tuberculose, du bœuf à l’homme ou plutôt de l’homme au bœuf ?
Human tuberculosis was long considered an infection that emerged in the Neolithic period due to the domestication of reservoir animal species, including the auroch. The human bacillus Mycobacterium tuberculosis is thought to have emerged from a microbial

The detection of airborne transmission of tuberculosis from HIV-infected patients, using an in vivo air sampling model [PDF]
Background. Nosocomial transmission of tuberculosis remains an important public health problem. We created an in vivo air sampling model to study airborne transmission of tuberculosis from patients coinfected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and ...

Mycobacterium bovis in human population in four Central European countries during 1990-1999
A survey on Mycobacterium bovis and M. tuberculosis in humans has been performed in four Central European countries (Croatia, the Czech Republic, Slovak Republic and Slovenia) during the years 1990 to 1999.

A Zebrafish Model of Mycobacterium leprae Granulomatous Infection. [PDF]
Understanding the pathogenesis of leprosy granulomas has been hindered by a paucity of tractable experimental animal models. Mycobacterium leprae, which causes leprosy, grows optimally at approximately 30°C, so we sought to model granulomatous disease in

Molecular epidemiology of Mycobacterium africanum in Ghana [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Mycobacterium africanum comprises two phylogenetic lineages within the M. tuberculosis complex (MTBC) and is an important cause of human tuberculosis (TB) in West Africa. The reasons for this geographic restriction of M.

Mycobacterium microti Interferes with Bovine Tuberculosis Surveillance
Mycobacterium microti, a member of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex, was originally described as the cause of tuberculosis in wild rodents. However, in the last few years, an increasing number of cases have been reported in wildlife (wild boars and

Molecular epidemiology of Mycobacterium bovis in Cameroon [PDF]
We describe the largest molecular epidemiological study of Bovine Tuberculosis (bTB) in a sub-Saharan African country with higher spatial resolution providing new insights into bTB. Four hundred and ninety-nine samples were collected for culture from 201

In two “départements” in the South-West of France, bovine tuberculosis (bTB) outbreaks due to Mycobacterium bovis spoligotype SB0821 have been identified in cattle since 2002 and in wildlife since 2013. Using whole genome sequencing, the aim of our study

Tuberculosis has severe impacts on both humans and animals. Understanding the genetic basis of survival of both Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the human-adapted species, and Mycobacterium bovis, the animal-adapted species, is crucial to deciphering the ...
