Disseminated mycobacterial infections after tumor necrosis factor inhibitor use, revealing inborn errors of immunity

International Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2023
Tumor necrosis factor-a inhibitors can be associated with increased risk of infections, particularly reactivation of latent tuberculosis or nontuberculous mycobacterium (NTM). However, because disseminated NTM is rare, inborn errors of immunity should be

Cutaneous infection by Mycobacterium lentiflavum after subcutaneous injection of lipolytic formula, [PDF]

Anais Brasileiros de Dermatologia, 2020
The incidence of nontuberculous mycobacterial infections is increasing worldwide; by 2017, more than 190 species and subspecies have been documented. Although classically associated with immunosuppression, the recognition of these etiological agents in ...

Mycobacterium intracellulare M.i.198—A Promising Strain for Studying Pathogenesis of Nontuberculous Mycobacterial Pulmonary Disease (NTM‐PD)

Microbiology and Immunology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this review, we introduce a promising strain for studying pathogenesis of nontuberculous mycobacterial pulmonary disease (NTM‐PD), Mycobacterium intracellulare M.i.198. M.i.198 was isolated from a patient with progressive Mycobacterium avium‐intracellulare complex pulmonary disease (MAC‐PD) in whom surgical operation was required to ...

Nontuberculous Mycobacterium infection complicated with Haemophagocytic syndrome: a case report and literature review [PDF]

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2019
Non-tuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) infection is usually observed in patients with immunosuppressive conditions. It may also cause unregulated immune responses. While there have been increasing numbers of reported tuberculosis-related HPS (haemophagocytic syndrome), HPS caused by NTM infection is still very rarely reported.We report a previously ...

Increased Risk of Environmental and Endemic Infectious Diseases in Sjögren's Disease: A Retrospective Analysis (2015–2023)

ACR Open Rheumatology, Volume 8, Issue 8, August 2026.
Objective Sjögren's disease (SjD) is a chronic autoimmune disease with a complex etiology, where pathogens may influence disease development or progression. Although SjD is not communicable, environmental and endemic pathogen exposures may influence its onset or progression.

Mixed Mycobacterium kansasii and Mycobacterium smegmatis infection in an adult‐onset immunodeficiency patient with anti‐interferon‐γ autoantibodies

Respirology Case Reports, 2023
Anti‐interferon‐gamma autoantibody (AIGA) is a rare adult‐onset immunodeficiency disease that increases the risk of occult infection. Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) infections represent a diverse group of species and subspecies, and mixed infections ...

Mechanisms of Resistance, Insights From Case Reports, and Future Prospects in Mycobacteriophage Therapy

Journal of the Royal Society of New Zealand, Volume 56, Issue 4, August 2026.
Evolution of drug‐resistant mycobacterial infections warrants renewed efforts in identifying more efficient preventive and control strategies as well as alternative treatment options. Interest in phage therapy is regaining significant traction, especially in cases of failed conventional therapy.

Dual Mycobacterial Infection: Rare Coinfection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Nontuberculous Mycobacteria. [PDF]

Cureus
There is little research on the subject, despite the rising prevalence of concurrent Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) and nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) infections. We present the case of a 48-year-old immunocompetent man diagnosed with pulmonary tuberculosis with simultaneous sputum cultures positive for NTM.

Mycobacterial cell division arrest and smooth‐to‐rough envelope transition using CRISPRi‐mediated genetic repression systems

FEBS Open Bio, Volume 16, Issue 7, Page 1271-1292, July 2026.
CRISPRI‐mediated gene silencing and phenotypic exploration in nontuberculous mycobacteria. In this Research Protocol, we describe approaches to control, monitor, and quantitatively assess CRISPRI‐mediated gene silencing in M. smegmatis and M. abscessus model organisms.

Nontuberculous Mycobacterial Lung Diseases Caused by Mixed Infection with Mycobacterium avium Complex and Mycobacterium abscessus Complex [PDF]

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2018
Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) and M. abscessus complex (MABC) comprise the two most important human pathogen groups causing nontuberculous mycobacterial lung disease (NTM-LD). However, there are limited data regarding NTM-LD caused by mixed NTM infections.
