Mycobacterium tuberculosis Dissemination Plays a Critical Role in Pathogenesis

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2020
Mycobacterium tuberculosis is primarily a respiratory pathogen. However, 15% of infections worldwide occur at extrapulmonary sites causing additional complications for diagnosis and treatment of the disease. In addition, dissemination of M.

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 ...

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.

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.

DNA repair systems and the pathogenesis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis: varying activities at different stages of infection [PDF]

, 2010
Mycobacteria, including most of all MTB (Mycobacterium tuberculosis), cause pathogenic infections in humans and, during the infectious process, are exposed to a range of environmental insults, including the host's immune response.

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
