متن کاملInterferon-c responses to Mycobacterium tuberculosis-specific antigens in diabetes mellitus
Although diabetes mellitus has long been recognised as a risk factor for tuberculosis, it was only recently that strong evidence for this emerged [1]. Persons with diabetes mellitus have a two or three times higher risk of developing tuberculosis disease than nondiabetics; those with tuberculosis and diabetes mellitus have a four times higher risk of death during tuberculosis treatment and a hi...
متن کاملTuberculosis treatment effect on T-cell interferon-gamma responses to Mycobacterium tuberculosis-specific antigens.
The hypothesis that T-cell interferon-gamma responses to Mycobacterium tuberculosis-specific antigens decline as disease activity diminishes with tuberculosis (TB) treatment has generated interest in the interferon-gamma release assays (IGRAs) as treatment-monitoring tools. We studied the effect of TB treatment on these responses as measured by the QuantiFERON-TB Gold In-tube (QFT-IT) and T-SPO...
متن کاملWhole Blood Interferon-Gamma Responses to Mycobacterium tuberculosis Antigens in Young Household Contacts of Persons with Tuberculosis in Uganda
BACKGROUND Due to immunologic immaturity, IFN-gamma-producing T cell responses may be decreased in young children compared to adults, thus we hypothesized that IFN-gamma responses to mycobacterial antigens in household contacts exposed to Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) would be impaired in young children relative to adults. The objective of this study was to compare whole blood IFN-gamma prod...
متن کاملtranscriptional responses to cinnamaldehyde in mycobacterium tuberculosis
results results of the current study showed that the minimum inhibitory concentration value of cinnamaldehyde against m. tuberculosis was 200 µg/ml. moreover, rt-pcr data showed that a total of 25 genes were regulated by the cinnamaldehyde. of these, 12 genes were up-regulated, and 13 genes were down-regulated. conclusions cinnamaldehyde is a pattern to expand the new anti-tb drugs, because the...
