A sugar on mycobacteria binds to the immune receptor dectin-1 on host macrophages, helping the bacteria survive and driving ...

A novel iPSC-derived lung-on-chip model mimics human alveolar tissue, revealing macrophage-driven tuberculosis responses.

A histone acetylome-wide associations study (HAWAS) performed in immune cells from patients with active Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection versus those from healthy controls, has for the first time ...

The ability of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB), a serious respiratory infection, to form snake-like cords was first noted nearly 80 years ago. In a study published October 20 in the journal Cell, ...

New observations of the early stages of tuberculosis infection may turn scientists' understanding of the bug's pathogenesis on its head: clumps of immune cells, called granulomas, long thought to ...

Disseminated tuberculosis is a type of tuberculosis (TB) where mycobacteria spread via blood to other organs beyond the lungs. It can cause severe multiple-organ damage in the absence of early ...

Down-regulation of plasma exosome-derived apolipoproteins APOA1, APOB, and APOC1 indicates DR-TB status and lipid metabolism regulation in pathogenesis. Group case-controlled study assessed 17 drug ...
