Polymorphism in the EREG gene confers susceptibility to tuberculosis

BMC Medical Genetics, 2019
Background Host genetic factors affect the immune response to Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection as well as the progression of the disease. Epiregulin (EREG) belongs to the epidermal growth factor (EGF) family, which binds to the epidermal growth

A solitary pulmonary nodule caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis var. BCG after intravesical BCG treatment: a case report

BMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2021
Background Intravesical instillation of bacillus Calmette–Guérin (BCG) as a treatment for superficial bladder cancer rarely causes pulmonary complications. While published cases have been pathologically characterized by multiple granulomatous lesions due

Trends in the incidence of Rifampicin resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection in northeastern Nigeria

Scientific African, 2022
Mycobacterium tuberculosis is a respiratory bacterial pathogen that causes Tuberculosis. About one-quarter of the global population is infected, most of which are asymptomatic with a 5–15% risk of developing active disease across their lifespan.

An ABC transporter containing a forkhead-associated domain interacts with a serine-threonine protein kinase and is required for growth of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in mice [PDF]

, 2005
Forkhead-associated (FHA) domains are modular phosphopeptide recognition motifs with a striking preference for phosphothreonine-containing epitopes. FHA domains have been best characterized in eukaryotic signaling pathways but have been identified in six

Mycobacterium tuberculosis Metabolism [PDF]

Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine, 2014
Metabolism underpins the physiology and pathogenesis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. However, although experimental mycobacteriology has provided key insights into the metabolic pathways that are essential for survival and pathogenesis, determining the metabolic status of bacilli during different stages of infection and in different cellular ...

In vitro activities of contezolid (MRX-I) against drug-sensitive and drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Microbiology Spectrum, 2023
A novel oxazolidinone for the treatment of Mycobacterium tuberculosis has been developed, but the activity of contezolid (MRX-I) still needs to be clarified.
