Emergence and spread of a human-transmissible multidrug-resistant nontuberculous mycobacterium.

Josephine M. Bryant, +90 more
- 11 Nov 2016 - 
TL;DR: Using whole-genome analysis of a global collection of clinical isolates, it is shown that the majority of M. abscessus infections are acquired through transmission, potentially via fomites and aerosols, of recently emerged dominant circulating clones that have spread globally.

Emergence and spread of a human-transmissible multidrug-resistant nontuberculous mycobacterium

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used whole-genome analysis of a global collection of clinical isolates to show that the majority of M. abscessus infections are acquired through transmission, potentially via fomites and aerosols, of recently emerged dominant circulating clones.
Journal ArticleDOI

Clofazimine inhalation suspension for the aerosol treatment of pulmonary nontuberculous mycobacterial infections

TL;DR: Clofazimine inhalation suspension is a well tolerated and effective novel therapeutic candidate for the treatment of NTM infections in mouse models and was shown to significantly improve bacterial elimination from the lungs of both acute and chronic NTM-infected mouse models.
Journal ArticleDOI

Truncated hemoglobin, HbN, is post-translationally modified in Mycobacterium tuberculosis and modulates host-pathogen interactions during intracellular infection.

TL;DR: The involvement of HbN in modulating the host-pathogen interactions and immune system of the host apart from protecting the bacilli from nitrosative stress inside the activated macrophages, consequently driving cells toward increased infectivity and intracellular survival is suggested.
