Mycobacterium intracellulare M.i.198—A Promising Strain for Studying Pathogenesis of Nontuberculous Mycobacterial Pulmonary Disease (NTM‐PD)

Microbiology and Immunology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this review, we introduce a promising strain for studying pathogenesis of nontuberculous mycobacterial pulmonary disease (NTM‐PD), Mycobacterium intracellulare M.i.198. M.i.198 was isolated from a patient with progressive Mycobacterium avium‐intracellulare complex pulmonary disease (MAC‐PD) in whom surgical operation was required to ...

Genetic characterization of Mycobacterium avium isolates recovered from humans and animals in Australia [PDF]

, 1996
Genetic relationships amongst 115 mainly Australian isolates of Mycobacterium avium were assessed using multilocus enzyme electrophoresis (MEE). The isolates were divided into 58 electrophoretic types (ETs), with a mean genetic diversity of 0·29 ...

Dermatologic Best Practices for Manicures and Nail Care: A Systematic Review

JEADV Clinical Practice, Volume 5, Issue 3, Page 821-828, September 2026.
This systematic review shows emerging evidence that nail cosmetic practices pose significant dermatologic consequences, particularly among individuals with regular nail salon use. Emerging concerns include infectious complications, an expanding spectrum of acrylate‐related contact allergens, structural disruption and loss of normal nail unit anatomy ...

A protein chaperone can stabilize the intein‐containing precursor to indirectly promote protein splicing

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Intervening proteins (inteins) interrupt host protein sequences and are removed by a self‐mediated protein splicing reaction. Inteins are abundant in the microbial world and are often found within essential genes involved in DNA replication, recombination, and repair.

Increased Risk of Environmental and Endemic Infectious Diseases in Sjögren's Disease: A Retrospective Analysis (2015–2023)

ACR Open Rheumatology, Volume 8, Issue 8, August 2026.
Objective Sjögren's disease (SjD) is a chronic autoimmune disease with a complex etiology, where pathogens may influence disease development or progression. Although SjD is not communicable, environmental and endemic pathogen exposures may influence its onset or progression.

Surface-Shaving Proteomics of Mycobacterium marinum Identifies Biofilm Subtype-Specific Changes Affecting Virulence, Tolerance, and Persistence

mSystems, 2021
Mycobacteria are naturally resilient, and mycobacterial infections are notoriously difficult to treat with antibiotics, with biofilm formation being the main factor complicating the successful treatment of tuberculosis (TB).

[Nontuberculous Mycobacterium pulmonary infection with pleural effusion caused by Mycobacterium kansasii].

Kekkaku : [Tuberculosis], 1993
A 28 year-old man was admitted to our hospital because of fever, cough and chest pain. A chest X-ray film taken on admission showed infiltrate in the left upper lung field with ipsilateral pleural effusion. Microscopical examinations of stained specimens of sputa and pleural effusions disclosed no acid-fast bacilli.

Pulmonary Infection Caused by an Unusual, Slowly Growing Nontuberculous Mycobacterium [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2001
ABSTRACT Mycobacterium triplex , a recently described slowly growing nontuberculous mycobacterium, was isolated from a Finnish patient with pulmonary mycobacteriosis. The disease was successfully treated with antimycobacterial drugs.

Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia: A Suggested Pathway to Transition From Pediatric to Adult Care

Pediatric Pulmonology, Volume 61, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a rare, genetically heterogeneous disorder characterized by motile ciliary dysfunction that impairs mucociliary clearance. Symptoms of PCD can include unexplained neonatal respiratory issues, chronic sino‐otopulmonary symptoms, recurrent infections, bronchiectasis, and subfertility.
