The importance of mycobacteria as opportunistic pathogens, particularly members of the M. avium complex (MAC), in patients with progressive HIV infection was recognized early in the AIDS epidemic. It took longer to appreciate the global impact and devastation that would result from the deadly synergy that exists between HIV and M. tuberculosis.

Pediatric Annals, 1978
The atypical mycobacteria are common human saprophytes. Their presence, particularly in a healthy person, is not associated with disease. In the child they cause two conditions, cervical adenitis and swimming-pool granuloma. Both of these diseases tend to be localized and nonprogressive. The former can be treated with reasonably nontoxic drugs; if this

Immunology Today, 1988
Abstract Autoimmune disease appears to be influenced by multiple factors, including the genetic, hormonal and immunological status of the individual. However, environmental agents have also been implicated in the initiation of these diseases, and mycobacteria have for a long time been listed among these agents.

The American Journal of the Medical Sciences, 2001
The nontuberculous mycobacteria are for the most part ubiquitous environmental organisms that only rarely cause disease in humans. Therefore, the normal host defense against these organisms must be quite robust, as exposure is universal and disease is rare.

Hospital Practice, 1970
Disease caused by atypical mycobacteria frequently mimics that due to M. tuberculosis, yet the chemotherapeutic response and prognosis differ markedly. Differentiation is thus a key problem. Although awareness of the atypical forms dates back to the last century, only in the past 15 years has progress been made in establishing the pathogenicity of the ...

The Physiology of the Mycobacteria
1976Publisher Summary The chapter discusses the physiology of the mycobacteria. The chapter discusses physiology to cover not only the mycobacterial cell, its structure and organization, but also the properties that the organisms must have—first to enable them to survive once having gained entry to a host, and secondly to bring about the various changes ...

Among the 130 species that constitute the genus Mycobacterium, the great majority are harmless saprophytes. However, a few species have very efficiently adapted to a pathogenic lifestyle. Among them are two of the most important human pathogens, Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycobacterium leprae, and one emerging pathogen, Mycobacterium ulcerans ...
