Establishment of a biosafe murine model of skeletal tuberculosis using Mycobacterium smegmatis

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This study developed a biosafe, accessible, and versatile murine model of bone TB using Mycobacterium smegmatis, a fast‐growing, nonpathogenic mycobacterial species with high genomic homology to Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Three infection routes—subperiosteal calvarial injection, intratibial injection, and intracardiac (left ventricular) inoculation ...

Nontuberculous mycobacterium M. avium infection predisposes aged mice to cardiac abnormalities and inflammation [PDF]

Aging Cell, 2019
AbstractBiological aging dynamically alters normal immune and cardiac function, favoring the production of pro‐inflammatory cytokines (IL‐1β, IL‐6, and TNF‐α) and increased instances of cardiac distress. Cardiac failure is the primary reason for hospitalization of the elderly (65+ years).

Nontuberculous Mycobacterium Infections in Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients

, 2012
Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are a large, diverse group of ubiquitous environmental organisms found in tap water, soil, dust, plants, animals, and food. NTM infection can cause various diseases, such as pulmonary disease (PD), which are most frequently observed in immunocompromised individuals.
