Lymphadenopathy caused by Mycobacterium colombiense.
We report the case of a 3-year-old girl with lymphadenopathy caused by the recently described species Mycobacterium colombiense. M. colombiense is a nonpigmented slow grower that is included in the Mycobacterium avium complex. Partial sequencing of the 16S rRNA gene was used for species identification.
متن کاملDisseminated Cutaneous Infection of Mycobacterium colombiense in a Patient with Myelodysplastic Syndrome
Mycobacterium colombiense (M. colombiense) is a member of the Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC). To our knowledge, this is the third case report of an M. colombiense infection. An 80-year-old man, immunocompromised by myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), developed a skin rash with exfoliation and eruption on his face and scalp. Mycobacteria were detected in pus samples. Broad-range polymerase chain ...
متن کاملSliding Motility, Biofilm Formation, and Glycopeptidolipid Production in Mycobacterium colombiense Strains
Mycobacterium colombiense is a novel member of the Mycobacterium avium complex, which produces respiratory and disseminated infections in immunosuppressed patients. Currently, the morphological and genetic bases underlying the phenotypic features of M. colombiense strains remain unknown. In the present study, we demonstrated that M. colombiense strains displaying smooth morphology show increase...
متن کاملDeciphering the virulence factors of the opportunistic pathogen Mycobacterium colombiense
Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) contains clinically important nontuberculous mycobacteria worldwide and is the second largest medical complex in the Mycobacterium genus after the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex. MAC comprises several species that are closely phylogenetically related but diverse regarding their host preference, course of disease, virulence and immune response. In this study...
متن کاملGenome sequence of the Mycobacterium colombiense type strain, CECT 3035.
We report the first whole-genome sequence of the Mycobacterium colombiense type strain, CECT 3035, which was initially isolated from Colombian HIV-positive patients and causes respiratory and disseminated infections. Preliminary comparative analyses indicate that the M. colombiense lineage has experienced a substantial genome expansion, possibly contributing to its distinct pathogenic capacity.
