The Role of Viral and Bacterial Infections in the Etiology of Behçet's Disease

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, Volume 40, Issue 1, January 2026.
Bacterial and viral pathogens may play a key role in Behçet's disease (BD) pathogenesis by triggering autoimmunity, molecular mimicry, or microbiome disruption. These infectious agents could initiate inflammatory pathways, contributing to BD's diverse clinical manifestations.

Host markers in Quantiferon supernatants differentiate active TB from latent TB infection: preliminary report [PDF]

, 2009
Includes bibliographyBackground: Interferon gamma release assays, including the QuantiFERON® TB Gold In Tube (QFT) have been shown to be accurate in diagnosing Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection. These assays however, do not discriminate between latent

Modular Nanosensing Platforms for Tuberculosis and Beyond: Engineering Biomaterials Toward Cross‐Pathogen Diagnostic Universality

MedComm – Biomaterials and Applications, Volume 4, Issue 4, December 2025.
Modular nanosensing platforms utilize nanomaterials and functionalized interfaces to amplify trace different pathogens (like tuberculosis) antigen capture, suppress matrix interference, and enable multiplex detection. Their portability and cost‐effectiveness support rapid screening in resource‐limited settings and real‐time monitoring, advancing high ...

Latent Tuberculosis Infection Is Associated with an Enrichment of Short-Chain Fatty Acid-Producing Bacteria in the Stool of Women Living with HIV

Microorganisms
Latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) is common in people living with HIV (PLHIV) in high-TB-burden settings. Active TB is associated with specific stool taxa; however, little is known about the stool microbiota and LTBI in PLHIV.

Inflammasome Activation Differences Underpin Different Mycobacterium tuberculosis Infection Outcomes

MedComm, Volume 6, Issue 12, December 2025.
Summary: PAMPS of Mtb interacts with PRRs of host cells and activates intracellular signaling, leading to activation of the inflammasome complex, which differentially contributes to the progressive or nonprogressive Mtb infection. We report a novel mechanism of inflammasome activation mediated by GBP1 and HIF‐1α, which orchestrates differential ...

Advancing Tuberculosis Chemotherapy: Targeted Nanomedicines for the Mycobacterium TB Granuloma

Small, Volume 21, Issue 49, December 10, 2025.
This graphical abstract illustrates nanosystems used for targeted drug delivery into tuberculosis granulomas. It shows how targeting is influenced by size, pH, redox sensitivity, and surface charge. Various nanoparticles are incorporated with drugs to enhance penetration, stability, and release.

Global trends and gaps in research related to latent tuberculosis infection

BMC Public Health, 2020
Background There is a global commitment to eliminating tuberculosis (TB). It is critical to detect and treat cases of latent TB infection (LTBI), the reservoir of new TB cases. Our study assesses trends in publication of LTBI-related research. Methods We
