Journal ArticleDOI

A marked difference in pathogenesis and immune response induced by different Mycobacterium tuberculosis genotypes.

TL;DR: Genetically different M. tuberculosis strains evoked markedly different immunopathological events in mice, and future immunological research, particularly on candidate vaccines, should include a broad spectrum of M. TB genotypes rather than a few laboratory strains.
Journal ArticleDOI

Persistence of DNA from Mycobacterium tuberculosis in superficially normal lung tissue during latent infection.

TL;DR: Findings contradict the dominant view that latent organisms exist in old classic tuberculous lesions, and have important implications for strategies aimed at the elimination of latent and persistent bacilli.
Journal ArticleDOI

Is Adipose Tissue a Place for Mycobacterium tuberculosis Persistence

TL;DR: In vitro, using a combination of adipose cell models, it is shown that after binding to scavenger receptors, M. tuberculosis can enter within adipocytes, where it accumulates intracytoplasmic lipid inclusions and survives in a non-replicating state that is insensitive to the major anti-mycobacterial drug isoniazid.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hormones, peripherally activated prohormones and regulation of the Th1/Th2 balance

TL;DR: An important influence on this shift that has been largely ignored in in vitro work is the endocrine system.
Journal Article

Correlation between the kinetics of Th1, Th2 cells and pathology in a murine model of experimental pulmonary tuberculosis.

TL;DR: The results suggest that T-lymphocyte subset kinetics and the pattern of cytokines produced in the lung during tuberculosis infection changed over time and correlate with the type and magnitude of tissue injury.
