A truncated lipoglycan from mycobacteria with altered immunological properties [PDF]

, 2010
Maintenance of cell-wall integrity in Mycobacterium tuberculosis is essential and is the target of several antitubercular drugs. For example, ethambutol targets arabinogalactan and lipoarabinomannan (LAM) biosynthesis through the inhibition of several ...

The Application Value of Bronchoalveolar Lavage Fluid Metagenomic Next‐Generation Sequencing in Moderate‐to‐Severe Bronchiectasis

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
This study analyzed the clinical data of 52 patients with moderate‐to‐severe bronchiectasis who were admitted to our hospital. It explored the diagnostic value of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) metagenomic next‐generation sequencing (mNGS) in identifying infectious pathogens in patients with moderate‐to‐severe bronchiectasis, and clarified the ...

Evaluation of susceptibility to antimycobacterial drugs in Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex strains isolated from cattle in Poland

Journal of Veterinary Research, 2017
Introduction: Tuberculosis is a highly infectious disease affecting humans and animals. It is caused by the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC) – Mycobacterium bovis and Mycobacterium caprae, which are aetiological factors of bovine tuberculosis ...

Tuberculosis and atypical mycobacterial infections in ruxolitinib-treated patients with primary or secondary myelofibrosis or polycythemia vera

International Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2019
Ruxolitinib is a JAK-1/JAK-2 inhibitor indicated for the treatment of polycythemia vera and primary or secondary myelofibrosis. Only one patient (0.2%) was diagnosed with tuberculosis among the 485 patients receiving ruxolitinib in the four pivotal ...

A rhodanine agent active against non-replicating intracellular Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis. [PDF]

, 2009
BACKGROUND: Antibiotic therapy targeting chronic mycobacterial disease is often ineffective due to problems with the emergence of drug resistance and non-replicating persistent intracellular antibiotic resistant phenotypes.

Distinguishing lung cancer from atypical tuberculosis: Deep transfer learning and imaging omics features

Journal of Intelligent Medicine, EarlyView.
The 3D‐ResNet model demonstrates superior discriminative power in differentiating lung cancer from atypical tuberculosis by leveraging deep omics features derived from volumetric lung cancer imaging, outperforming conventional clinical and radiomic analyses.

Isolated anal tuberculosis presenting as an anal fistula in an immunocompetent child

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Extra‐pulmonary tuberculosis accounts for less than 15% of all tuberculosis cases, while intestinal tuberculosis accounts for less than 1% of extra‐pulmonary forms of the disease. Abdominal organ involvement is more common, but extension to the ano‐perineal region is extremely rare.

Uncovering Key Characteristics of Antibacterial Peptides through Machine Learning

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Machine‐learning (ML) techniques using random forest classification models revealed key characteristics that predict effective antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) targeting Gram‐negative bacteria, Gram‐positive bacteria, and mycobacteria. The ideal cLogP (<$ < $−6) and net‐charge (≤+4) threshold was the same for all three targets with variations in the ...
