A Case Report on Disseminated <i>Mycobacterium avium</i> Complex Infection in an Otherwise Healthy Individual-A Diagnostic Challenge. [PDF]

Clin Case Rep
ABSTRACT Disseminated Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) infection can mimic tuberculosis (TB) in immunocompetent individuals, leading to diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. Clinicians should consider nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) in patients unresponsive to anti‐tubercular therapy (ATT), especially in endemic regions.

Characterization of Rosculus vilicus sp. nov., a rhizarian amoeba interacting with Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Free-living amoebae are described as potential reservoirs for pathogenic bacteria in the environment. It has been hypothesized that this might be the case for Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis, the bacterium responsible for paratuberculosis. In

Why a Mycobacterium Avium Infected Patient Showed a Positive Xpert MTB/RIF Result? [PDF]

Clin Case Rep
ABSTRACT This article discusses whether a MAC‐infected patient with a positive Xpert MTB/RIF test has a co‐infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB). The patient presented with chronic, indolent pulmonary patchy shadows on imaging but lacked typical symptoms. The MTB antigen‐specific interferon‐gamma enzyme‐linked immunospot assay (T‐SPOT.TB) was

Comparative Transcriptomic Analysis of Human Macrophages During Mycobacterium avium Versus Mycobacterium tuberculosis Infection. [PDF]

Mol Microbiol
Human macrophage transcriptomic responses to Mycobacterium avium (Mav), a major cause of nontuberculous lung disease, were compared to Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). Both infections activated overlapping immune pathways, including cytokine signaling and GPCRs involved in lipid metabolism, while phospholipases were more strongly regulated by Mav and ...
