Mechanisms of Pyrazinamide Action and Resistance [PDF]
ABSTRACT Pyrazinamide (PZA) is a unique antituberculosis (anti-TB) drug that plays a key role in shortening TB therapy. PZA kills nonreplicating persisters that other TB drugs fail to kill, which makes it an essential drug for inclusion in any drug combinations for treating drug-susceptible and drug-resistant TB such as multidrug-

Mutations and insights into the molecular mechanisms of resistance of Mycobacterium tuberculosis to first-line [PDF]
Genetically antimicrobial resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis is currently one of the most important aspects of tuberculosis, considering that there are emerging resistant strains for almost every known drug used for its treatment.

Pyrazinamide resistance in Swedish multidrug-resistant tuberculosis 2003–2013
Aims and objectives: The aim of this study is to determine the prevalence of pyrazinamide (PZA) resistance among multidrug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MDR-TB) strains isolated in Sweden between 2003 and 2013 and to study the correlation between

Pyrazinamide resistance of novel mutations in pncA and their dynamic behavior. [PDF]
We performed several analyses to unveil the pyrazinamide-resistance mechanism of R123P, T76P, G150A, and H71R mutants through molecular dynamics simulations.

Pyrazinamide (PZA) is widely used to treat drug-sensitive or multidrug resistance tuberculosis. However, conventional PZA susceptibility tests of clinical isolates are rather difficult because of the requirement of acid pH.

Counting Pyrazinamide in Regimens for Multidrug-Resistant Tuberculosis [PDF]
Abstract Rationale For treatment of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis, World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines recommend four likely effective drugs plus pyrazinamide (PZA), irrespective of the likely effectiveness of PZA in an individual patient.

Impact of pyrazinamide resistance on multidrug-resistant tuberculosis in Karakalpakstan, Uzbekistan [PDF]
The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends the inclusion of pyrazinamide (PZA) in treatment regimens for multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) unless resistance has been confirmed.To investigate the association between PZA susceptibility and MDR-TB treatment outcome among patients treated with a PZA-containing regimen and whether the duration ...
