Buruli Ulcer (BU) is a neglected, necrotizing skin disease, caused by M. ulcerans, that can leave patients with prominent scars and lifelong disability. M. ulcerans produces a diffusible lipid toxin, mycolactone, essential for bacterial virulence. Prevention is difficult as little is known about disease transmission and there is no vaccine.

Buruli ulcer (BU) is caused by Mycobacterium ulcerans and can manifest as a simple nodule or as aggressive skin ulcers leading to debilitating osteoarthritis or limb deformity. The disease is more prevalent in those living in remote rural areas, especially in children younger than 15 years.

Buruli ulcer is a slowly progressive necrotizing disease of the skin caused by Mycobacterium ulcerans, recognized by WHO as a neglected tropical disease. Around 2,000 cases are reported annually, but underdiagnosis and under-reporting probably obscure the true burden.

In a study of 28 patients with Mycobacterium ulcerans infection (Buruli ulcer) in Oinhi, Benin, it became clear that the disease can regress as well as progress, and that patients can have lesions of different stages simultaneously. A system of disease staging was introduced (I = subcutaneous nodule; II = cellulitis; III = ulceration; IV = scar ...

Human genetics of Buruli ulcer
Human Genetics, 2020Buruli ulcer, the third most common mycobacterial disease worldwide, is caused by Mycobacterium ulcerans and characterized by devastating necrotizing skin lesions. Susceptibility to Buruli ulcer is thought to depend on host genetics, but very few genetic studies have been performed.
