Protective versus deleterious roles of pyroptosis in Mycobacterium avium and Mycobacterium marinum infections [PDF]
Cell Death and DiseaseMycobacterium avium, a slow-growing nontuberculous mycobacterium (NTM), is the main cause of life-threatening NTM infections, which are globally on the rise. Unlike Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycobacterium marinum, M.

Red-eared slider turtle–Mycobacterium marinum infection model [PDF]
Infection and ImmunityMycobacterium marinum serves as an ideal model organism for studying tuberculosis due to its genetic similarity to Mycobacterium tuberculosis. However, there is a need for more suitable animal models to study M. marinum infections.

Rapid diagnosis of Mycobacterium marinum infection using targeted nanopore sequencing: a case report
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023 Mycobacterium marinum (M. marinum) is a non-tuberculous mycobacterium (NTM) that can cause infectious diseases in aquatic animals and humans. Culture-based pathogen detection is the gold standard for diagnosing NTM infection. However, this method is time-
