BACKGROUND This study aimed to determine the efficacy and safety of recombinant Mycobacterium tuberculosis ESAT-6 protein for diagnosis of pulmonary tuberculosis (TB). MATERIAL AND METHODS A phase II trial was performed in 158 patients with pulmonary TB (145 initially-treated and 13 re-treated) and 133 healthy subjects. Skin testing was carried out by injecting purified protein derivative (PP...

Assessing C-reactive protein concentration in lung TB as a predictor of sputum conversion and identifying the link active Serum-C severity disease. Newly diagnosed tuberculosis patients age group & gender compared to healthy people control group. A high-dose experimental test C-ELISA was used measure Serum-C-reactive protein. ANOVA t tests have been determine mathematical significance. In w...

Background: Protective immune responses induced in the majority of people infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis enable them to control TB infection. Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate CD56 and CD16 positive peripheral blood mononu-clear cells (PBMCs) and leukocyte subsets from multi-drug resistant pulmonary tuber-culosis (MDR-TB), and compare them with nonresistant (NR) TB p...

OBJECTIVE Matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMP) have been found in high concentrations in pleural effusions. Because MMP and TIMP may play a part in the causation of the fibrosis seen in tuberculous (TB) pleuritis their occurrence was examined. DESIGN Pleural effusion fluid and plasma concentrations of MMP-1, MMP-2, MMP-3, MMP-8, MMP-9, TIMP-1 and ...

Group-specific component (Gc) variants of vitamin D binding protein differ in their affinity for vitamin D metabolites that modulate antimycobacterial immunity. We conducted studies to determine whether Gc genotype associates with susceptibility to tuberculosis (TB). The following subjects were recruited into case-control studies: in the UK, 123 adult TB patients and 140 controls, all of Gujara...

BSA is unfolded by the surfactant CPB and is complexed with Tb (Tb–BSA–CPB). At the excitation wavelength of 290 nm, both BSA and CPB get excited. The CPB emission, which is comparatively blue shifted (310 nm) than that of BSA (340 nm), overlaps with the absorption band of BSA resulting in the energy transfer from CPB to BSA. BSA transfers its energy to Tb, which emits at 490 and 545 nm. When G...

OBJECTIVES We report the incidence of tuberculosis (TB) across certolizumab pegol (CZP) clinical trials in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA), before and after the introduction of stricter TB screening. METHODS TB incidence rates (IRs) were assessed and stratified according to screening guidelines used at the time of CZP trials....

BACKGROUND Serum antibody-based target identification has been used to identify tumor-associated antigens (TAAs) for development of anti-cancer vaccines. A similar approach can be helpful to identify biologically relevant and clinically meaningful targets in M. tuberculosis (MTB) infection for diagnosis or TB vaccine development in clinically well defined populations. METHOD We constructed a ...

BACKGROUND Tuberculosis (TB) is an important cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Toll-like-receptors (TLRs) are important for the recognition of the causative agent Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Negative regulation of TLRs is necessary to control deleterious inflammatory damage, but could provide a means of immune evasion by M. tuberculosis as well. METHODS To obtain insight in the exte...

Drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB), the causative pathogen of tuberculosis (TB), has become a serious threat to global public health. Yet the development of novel drugs against MTB has been lagging. One potentially powerful approach to drug development is computation-aided repositioning of current drugs. However, the effectiveness of this approach has rarely been examined. Here we ...
