Background. Cameroon this last decade continues to present a low contribution of M. africanum and M. bovis in human tuberculosis (TB), while M. bovis was prevalent in cattle but all these pieces of information only concerned West and Center regions. Methods. We carried out the first study in Adamaoua, one of the most rearing regions of Cameroon, on the genetic structure and drug susceptibility ...
Multiple-locus variable-number tandem repeat analysis (MLVA) is useful to establish transmission routes and sources of infections for various microorganisms including Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTC). The recently released SITVITWEB database contains 12-loci Mycobacterial Interspersed Repetitive Units--Variable Number of Tandem DNA Repeats (MIRU-VNTR) profiles and spoligotype patterns f...
Rao et al. (3) described a method to identify Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains of the Beijing genotype. The authors suggested using simple PCR of mycobacterial interspersed repetitive unit–variable-number tandem repeat (MIRU-VNTR) locus 26 to identify these strains. This suggestion is based on the authors’ assumption that MIRU locus 26 has a specific seven-copy signature in these strains. Rao...
Deciphering the structure of pathogen populations is instrumental for the understanding of the epidemiology and history of infectious diseases and for their control. Although Mycobacterium tuberculosis is the most widespread infectious agent in humans, its actual population structure has remained hypothetical until now because: (i) its structural genes are poorly polymorphic; (ii) adequate samp...
SETTING Existing tuberculosis control strategies in Vietnam are based on symptomatic patients attending health services for investigation. This approach has not resulted in substantial reductions in the prevalence of tuberculosis disease, despite the National Tuberculosis Program achieving high treatment completion rates. Alternative approaches are being considered. OBJECTIVE To determine the...
We conducted a molecular epidemiology study on 120 Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates from patients presenting pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) in Burkina Faso. Classical antibiogram studies and genetic characterization, using mycobacterial interspersed repetitive-unit-variable-number tandem-repeat (MIRU-VNTR) typing and spoligotyping, were applied after culture. Molecular analysis of specific sign...
BACKGROUND Non-tuberculous mycobacterial lung disease, most commonly caused by Mycobacterium avium infection, tends to show variable disease progression, and significant disease predictors have not been adequately established. METHODS Variable numbers of tandem repeats (VNTR) were evaluated in 16 mycobacterial interspersed repetitive unit (MIRU) loci from M avium isolates cultured from respir...
BACKGROUND Tuberculosis (TB) is a serious problem in China. While there have been some studies on the nationwide genotyping of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis), there has been little detailed research in Beijing, the capital of China, which has a huge population. Here, M. tuberculosis clinical strains collected in Beijing during 2009 were genotyped by classical methods. METHODOLOG...
اهداف: باسیل کالمت-گرین (bcg) تنها واکسن در دسترس علیه بیماری سل است. سویه bcg مورد استفاده به عنوان واکسن در ایران نامشخص است. هدف این مطالعه تایید و کنترل کیفی واکسن bcg مورد استفاده در ایران و تعیین پلی مورفیسم ژنی این سویه بود. روش ها: 28 واکسن bcg لیوفلیزه (انیستیتو پاستور؛ ایران) با شماره سریال های متفاوت طی یک سال (91-1390) جمع آوری و تحت شرایط دمایی °c4 به آزمایشگاه انتقال داده شدند. از...
