Virulence factors of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex
The Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC) consists of closely related species that cause tuberculosis in both humans and animals. This illness, still today, remains to be one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality throughout the world. The mycobacteria enter the host by air, and, once in the lungs, are phagocytated by macrophages. This may lead to the rapid elimination of the baci...
متن کاملIMPORTANCE OF CATALASE ENZYME IN VIRULENCE OF ISONIAZID RESISTANT ST RAINS OF MYCOBACTERIUM TUBERCULOSIS IN GUINEAPIGS
In this study, twenty-five strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis resistant to isoniazid (INH) were isolated from patients with tuberculosis (TB). Nine strains (36%) were found to be virulent in guinea-pigs [root index virulence (RIV» 1 ]. The remaining sixteen strains (64%) were non-virulent (RIV <1). Of the nine strains resistant to INH as well as virulent to guinea-pigs, eight of them wer...
متن کاملStructure-Function Relationships of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis Transcription Factor WhiB1
BACKGROUND Members of the WhiB-like (Wbl) protein family possess iron-sulfur clusters and are implicated in the regulation of developmental processes in Actinomycetes. Mycobacterium tuberculosis possesses seven Wbl proteins. The [4Fe-4S] cluster of M. tuberculosis WhiB1 is relatively insensitive to O(2) but very sensitive to nitric oxide (NO). Nitric oxide nitrosylates the WhiB1 iron-sulfur clu...

15 صفحه اولVirulence in isoniazid-resistant clinical isolates of Mycobacterium tuberculosis from south India
Isoniazid, is the only antituberculous drug for which the relation between lack of virulence and acquisition of resistance was associated. INH-resistant mutants were shown to contain defective katG gene. Classical studies showed that INH-resistant south Indian isolates have lower virulence in guinea pigs and higher susceptibility to H2O2. It is of interest to assess the virulence in south India...
