Tuberculosis (TB) is one of the most important AIDS associated infectious diseases worldwide. It is a leading cause of illness and death among people with HIV/AIDS in resource-poor areas of the world. The annual incidence of TB among indigenous Iranians stands at 14 cases per 100,000 inhabitants. This study aimed to identify Mycobacterium infection among Iranian HIV positive patients. Two sputu...
The findings of recent studies addressing the molecular characteristics of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex isolates have initiated a discussion on the classification of M. africanum, especially of those isolates originating from East Africa (cluster F, subtype II) and displaying phenotypic and biochemical characteristics more similar to those of M. tuberculosis. To further address this quest...
“The authors acknowledge Mr. Oliver Shaw for performing the English revision and the support of Dr. Esbrit’s. The authors’ research is supported by research grants from Fondo de Investigación Sanitaria funded by the Instituto de Salud Carlos III (PI12/00144, PI13/00570, CP15/00007, PI14/00016 and PIE13/00024). R.G. is funded by the Instituto de Salud Carlos III through a Miguel Servet programme...
Comparative genomics has identified several regions of differences (RDs) between the infectious Mycobacterium tuberculosis and the vaccine strains of Mycobacterium bovis BCG. We aimed to evaluate the cellular immune responses induced by antigens encoded by genes predicted in 11 RDs. Synthetic peptides covering the sequences of RD1, RD4 to RD7, RD9 to RD13, and RD15 were tested for antigen-induc...
Retinal neuronal cell death underlies many incurable eye diseases such as retinitis pigmentosa (RP) and glaucoma, and causes adult blindness. We have shown that maintenance of ATP levels via inhibiting ATP consumption is a promising strategy for preventing neuronal cell death. Here, we show that branched chain amino acids (BCAAs) are able to increase ATP production by enhancing glycolysis. In c...
One eye of rd12 mice received a sub-retinal injection of a vector carrying normal human RPE65 cDNA at post-natal day 18, and at 6- and 13-months of age. Electroretinograms (ERGs) and visual-evoked potentials (VEPs) were recorded to luminance, and to spatially and temporally modulated stimuli to assess the consequences of delayed treatment on visual pathway function. Early treatment resulted in ...

For over 130 years, invasive pneumococcal disease has been associated with the presence of extracellular planktonic pneumococci, i.e. diplococci or short chains in affected tissues. Herein, we show that Streptococcus pneumoniae that invade the myocardium instead replicate within cellular vesicles and transition into non-purulent biofilms. Pneumococci within mature cardiac microlesions exhibited...
