Immunosuppression and mycobacteria other thanMycobacterium tuberculosis: results from patients with and without HIV infection [PDF]

Epidemiology and Infection, 1989
SUMMARYInfections caused by mycobacteria other thanMycobacterium tuberculosis(MOTT) have often been described as common in AIDS patients. To evaluate whether infections with MOTT are specific for HIV related immunosuppression or are also frequent in patients with immunosuppression of different aetiology, data on the frequency of isolation from ...

Containment of aerogenic Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection in mice does not require MyD88 adaptor function for TLR2, -4 and -9.

, 2008
The role of Toll-like receptors (TLR) and MyD88 for immune responses to Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection remains controversial. To address the impact of TLR-mediated pathogen recognition and MyD88-dependent signaling events on anti ...

Evaluation of DNA primase DnaG as a potential target for antibiotics [PDF]

, 2014
Mycobacteria contain genes for several DNA-dependent RNA primases, including dnaG, which encodes an essential replication enzyme that has been proposed as a target for antituberculosis compounds.

Special Issue on Molecular evolution, epidemiology and pathogenesis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and other mycobacteria

Infection, Genetics and Evolution, 2012
Editorial from Guest Editors: The recent years witnessed an impressive breakthrough in epidemiological and evolutionary studies of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex and other mycobacterial species. This development was promoted by the implementation and wide use of new generation approaches such as whole-genome sequencing and microarrays. Based on

Mixed Mycobacterium tuberculosis Lineage Infection in 2 Elephants, Nepal

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2019
Tuberculosis in elephants is primarily caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. We identified mixed M. tuberculosis lineage infection in 2 captive elephants in Nepal by using spoligotyping and large sequence polymorphism. One elephant was infected with Indo-

Synthetic (p)ppGpp analogue is an inhibitor of stringent response in mycobacteria [PDF]

, 2017
Bacteria elicit an adaptive response against hostile conditions such as starvation and other kinds of stresses. Their ability to survive such conditions depends, in part, on stringent response pathways.
