Bifidobacterium adolescentis is resistant to pyrazinamide, isoniazid, and streptomycin

open access: yesScientific Reports
The current study aims to understand the resistance of Bifidobacterium adolescentis to different anti-tubercular drugs (first-line oral tuberculosis drugs). The bacteria were grown with anti-tubercular drugs such as isoniazid, pyrazinamide, and streptomycin to better understand the resistance phenomena.

Initial resistance to companion drugs should not be considered an exclusion criterion for the shorter multidrug-resistant tuberculosis treatment regimen

open access: yesInternational Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2020
Objectives: We investigated whether companion drug resistance was associated with adverse outcomes of the shorter multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) treatment regimen in Bangladesh after adjustment for fluoroquinolone resistance.

Thiazolidinedione–Pyrazolopyrimidinone Molecular Hybrids With Alkyl Spacers: Potential Antitubercular Agents Complemented by Molecular Modeling

open access: yesChemistrySelect, Volume 11, Issue 24, 25 June 2026.
We report the synthesis of 21 novel thiazolidinedione–pyrazolopyrimidinone derivatives (12a–u), prepared by coupling thiazolidinedione and pyrazolopyrimidinone pharmacophores through various alkyl linkers. The compounds were characterized spectroscopically and evaluated against the Mtb H37Rv strain, identifying compounds 5c and 5d as potent ...

Prevalence and genetic profiles of isoniazid resistance in tuberculosis patients: A multicountry analysis of cross-sectional data.

open access: yesPLoS Medicine, 2020
BackgroundThe surveillance of drug resistance among tuberculosis (TB) patients is central to combatting the global TB epidemic and preventing the spread of antimicrobial resistance. Isoniazid and rifampicin are two of the most powerful first-line anti-TB

CYP2E1 and CYP2D6 in Anti‐Tuberculosis Drug‐Induced Liver Injury: Mechanisms, Epigenetic Regulation, and Translational Implications

open access: yesClinical and Translational Science, Volume 19, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Tuberculosis (TB) continues to be a significant global health issue, with anti‐tuberculosis drug‐induced liver injury (ATDILI) representing the most frequent and severe adverse event associated with first‐line therapy. Despite extensive investigation, the mechanistic basis of ATDILI remains incompletely understood.

The paradox of pyrazinamide: an update on the molecular mechanisms of pyrazinamide resistance in Mycobacteria.

open access: yesThe Journal of communicable diseases, 2007
Pyrazinamide (PZA) is an important front line anti-tuberculosis drug because of its sterilizing activity against semi-dormant tubercle bacilli. In spite of its remarkable role in shortening the treatment duration from 9 months to 6 months when used in combination with Rifampicin and Isoniazid, PZA remains a difficult paradox because of its incompletely
