Spoligotyping andMycobacterium tuberculosis [PDF]

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2005
We evaluated the clinical usefulness of spoligotyping, a polymerase chain reaction-based method for simultaneous detection and typing of Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains, with acid-fast bacilli-positive slides from clinical specimens or mycobacterial cultures. Overall sensitivity and specificity were 97% and 95% for the detection of M.

Mechanisms of Drug-Induced Tolerance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Clinical Microbiology Reviews, 2020
Successful treatment of tuberculosis (TB) can be hampered by Mycobacterium tuberculosis populations that are temporarily able to survive antibiotic pressure in the absence of drug resistance-conferring mutations, a phenomenon termed drug tolerance.

Mapping and characterization of G-quadruplexes in Mycobacterium tuberculosis gene promoter regions [PDF]

, 2017
Mycobacterium tuberculosis is the causative agent of tuberculosis (TB), one of the top 10 causes of death worldwide in 2015. The recent emergence of strains resistant to all current drugs urges the development of compounds with new mechanisms of action ...

Mycolicibacterium smegmatis, Basonym Mycobacterium smegmatis, Expresses Morphological Phenotypes Much More Similar to Escherichia coli Than Mycobacterium tuberculosis in Quantitative Structome Analysis and CryoTEM Examination

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018
A series of structome analyses, that is, quantitative and three-dimensional structural analysis of a whole cell at the electron microscopic level, have already been achieved individually in Exophiala dermatitidis, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Mycobacterium ...

Assessment of treatment response in tuberculosis [PDF]

, 2016
Antibiotic treatment of tuberculosis has a duration of several months. There is significant variability of the host immune response and the pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic properties of Mycobacterium tuberculosis sub-populations at the site of disease. A

Immunity toMycobacterium tuberculosis [PDF]

Clinical and Developmental Immunology, 2011
Tuberculosis (TB) remains a major cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide. Currently, a third of the world's population is infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the causative agent of TB, and annually there are 10 million new cases of clinical TB and approximately 2 million deaths [1]. TB kills more individuals each year than any other bacterial
