Rapid Detection and Immune Characterization of Mycobacterium abscessus Infection in Cystic Fibrosis Patients
Cystic fibrosis patients are highly susceptible to infections with non-tuberculous mycobacteria. Especially Mycobacterium abscessus infections are common but reliable diagnosis is hampered by non-specific clinical symptoms and insensitive mycobacterial culture. In the present study we established novel methods for rapid detection and immune characterization of Mycobacterium abscessus infection ...
متن کاملComplete Genome Sequence of Mycobacterium abscessus subsp. bolletii
We report the complete genome sequence of a Mycobacterium abscessus subsp. bolletii isolate recovered from a sputum culture from an individual with cystic fibrosis. This sequence is the first completed whole-genome sequence of M. abscessus subsp. bolletii and adds value to studies of M. abscessus complex genomics.
متن کاملMycobacterium abscessus and Children with Cystic Fibrosis
We prospectively studied 298 patients with cystic fibrosis (mean age 11.3 years; range 2 months to 32 years; sex ratio, 0.47) for nontuberculous mycobacteria in respiratory samples from January 1, 1996, to December 31, 1999. Mycobacterium abscessus was by far the most prevalent nontuberculous mycobacterium: 15 patients (6 male, 9 female; mean age 11.9 years; range 2.5-22 years) had at least one...
متن کاملMolecular fingerprinting of Mycobacterium abscessus strains in a cohort of pediatric cystic fibrosis patients.
Forty-one Mycobacterium abscessus complex isolates from 17 pediatric cystic fibrosis (CF) patients were typed using a novel variable-number tandem repeat (VNTR) scheme and an automated repetitive-PCR (rep-PCR) system. Both VNTR and rep-PCR typing methods differentiate between members of the M. abscessus complex. The isolates from individual patients are indistinguishable, and the data strongly ...
متن کاملCough swabs should not be used to isolate non-tuberculous mycobacteria in children with cystic fibrosis.
Non-tuberculous mycobacterium (NTM) account for 13% of cystic fibrosis (CF)-related respiratory infections and present a major therapeutic challenge. There is increasing evidence to suggest an adverse prognostic significance of NTM, particularly for Mycobacterium abscessus. A recent large retrospective study of 1216 patients with CF found that growths of NTM were associated with progressive det...
