Establishment of a biosafe murine model of skeletal tuberculosis using Mycobacterium smegmatis

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This study developed a biosafe, accessible, and versatile murine model of bone TB using Mycobacterium smegmatis, a fast‐growing, nonpathogenic mycobacterial species with high genomic homology to Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Three infection routes—subperiosteal calvarial injection, intratibial injection, and intracardiac (left ventricular) inoculation ...

A Multiepitope‐Based Lateral Flow Assay for Leprosy Antibodies

Analysis &Sensing, EarlyView.
An innovative lateral flow assay for leprosy diagnosis is based on gold nanoparticles and synthetic Mycobacterium leprae epitopes conjugated to keyhole limpet hemocyanin protein to enhance antibody detection. This strategy provides a rapid, accurate, and low‐cost approach for resource‐limited settings, enabling the early detection of infection. Leprosy

Population pharmacokinetics of TBAJ‐587 and its main metabolites—Evaluation of different loading dose strategies and early dose selection

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Aim The rise of drug‐resistant tuberculosis (TB) poses a need for new drugs and combinations. TBAJ‐587, a new diarylquinoline (DARQ), has shown promising efficacy in preclinical studies. This work aimed to describe the pharmacokinetics (PK) of TBAJ‐587 and its metabolites M2 and M3 after single ascending dosing in healthy volunteers and ...

Pharmacokinetics of dolutegravir, tenofovir and lamivudine during venous–venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV‐ECMO): A case report

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
While providing potentially life‐saving cardiorespiratory support for critically ill patients, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) may detrimentally affect pharmacokinetic (PK) performance and concurrent drug efficacy and safety. We describe a patient with Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP) in the context of acquired immunodeficiency ...

Prevention of urinary tract infection in spinal cord-injured patients: safety and efficacy of a weekly oral cyclic antibiotic (WOCA) programme with a 2 year follow-up--an observational prospective study.

, 2006
POPULATION: Spinal cord injury (SCI) patients with neurogenic bladder have an increased risk for symptomatic urinary tract infection (UTI). Recurrent UTI requires multiple courses of antibiotic therapy, markedly increasing the incidence of multidrug ...

The transcriptome of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in a lipid-rich dormancy model through RNAseq analysis [PDF]

, 2017
Tuberculosis (TB) is currently the number one killer among infectious diseases worldwide. Lipids are abundant molecules during the infectious cycle of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) and studies better mimicking its actual metabolic state during ...

Engineering of 2‐ketoacid Decarboxylases for Production of Isobutanol and Other Fusel Alcohols in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Isobutanol is a fusel alcohol that can be produced microbially for use as a biofuel or upgraded into sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). A key enzyme in the isobutanol biosynthetic pathway is 2‐ketoacid decarboxylase (KDC), which irreversibly decarboxylates 2‐ketoisovalerate (KIV) to yield isobutyraldehyde.

Detecting Mutations in the Mycobacterium tuberculosis Pyrazinamidase Gene pncA to Improve Infection Control and Decrease Drug Resistance Rates in Human Immunodeficiency Virus Coinfection. [PDF]

, 2016
Hospital infection control measures are crucial to tuberculosis (TB) control strategies within settings caring for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive patients, as these patients are at heightened risk of developing TB.
