Bioinformatic and empirical analysis of novel hypoxia-inducible targets of the human antituberculosis T cell response.

Only registered users can translate articles

We analyzed whole genome-based transcriptional profiles of Mycobacterium tuberculosis subjected to prolonged hypoxia to guide the discovery of novel potential Ags, by a combined bioinformatic and empirical approach. We analyzed the fold induction of the 100 most highly induced genes at 7 d of

[A case of tuberculous meningitis with pleural effusion as a manifestation of a paradoxical reaction during anti-tuberculosis therapy].

Only registered users can translate articles

We present a case of tuberculous meningitis (TBM), wherein pleural effusion developed as a manifestation of paradoxical reaction during anti-tuberculosis therapy. An 87-year-old diabetic man was referred to our clinic for fever and impaired consciousness. He did not obey vocal commands. No ocular

Acetylation of lysine 182 inhibits the ability of Mycobacterium tuberculosis DosR to bind DNA and regulate gene expression during hypoxia.

Only registered users can translate articles

The DosR regulon is believed to be a key factor in latency adaptation of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and is strongly induced by multiple stresses, including hypoxia. Previous studies have revealed reversible acetylation of the conserved core DNA-binding lysine residue 182 (K182) of DosR in M.

Essentiality of succinate dehydrogenase in Mycobacterium smegmatis and its role in the generation of the membrane potential under hypoxia.

Only registered users can translate articles

Succinate:quinone oxidoreductase (Sdh) is a membrane-bound complex that couples the oxidation of succinate to fumarate in the cytoplasm to the reduction of quinone to quinol in the membrane. Mycobacterial species harbor genes for two putative sdh operons, but the individual roles of these two

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug sensitizes Mycobacterium tuberculosis to endogenous and exogenous antimicrobials.

Only registered users can translate articles

Existing drugs are slow to eradicate Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) in patients and have failed to control tuberculosis globally. One reason may be that host conditions impair Mtb's replication, reducing its sensitivity to most antiinfectives. We devised a high-throughput screen for compounds that

Isoniazid Bactericidal Activity Involves Electron Transport Chain Perturbation.

Only registered users can translate articles

Accumulating evidence suggests that the bactericidal activity of some antibiotics may not be directly initiated by target inhibition. The activity of isoniazid (INH), a key first-line bactericidal antituberculosis drug currently known to inhibit mycolic acid synthesis, becomes extremely poor under

[The role of antioxidant defense system in the development of glycemic disorders in patients with lung tuberculosis].

Only registered users can translate articles

The development of different carbohydrate metabolism disorders in patients with lung tuberculosis occurs against a background of significant derangements in oxidation-reduction system, caused by hypoxia and intoxication. The classical antituberculosis treatment within 2 months doesn't succeed in

[A case of miliary tuberculosis associated with acute respiratory failure during pregnancy].

Only registered users can translate articles

A case of miliary tuberculosis associated with acute respiratory failure during pregnancy was reported. A 39-year-old, 29-week pregnant woman was admitted to our hospital with complaints of nonproductive cough and fever on June 12. On admission, her temperature was 38.2 degrees C; pulse rate was

Benzaldehyde thiosemicarbazone derivatives against replicating and nonreplicating Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

Only registered users can translate articles

In this article, we report a series of benzaldehyde thiosemicarbazone derivatives possessing high activity toward actively replicating Mycobacterium tuberculosis strain with minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values in the range from 0.14 to 2.2 μM. Among them, two

[Case of interstitial pneumonia induced by intravesical administration of Bacillus Calmette-Guerin].

Only registered users can translate articles

An 81-year-old man with superficial bladder cancer, which was detected after he complained of hematuria and pain on urination, was treated 5 times with intravesical bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) administration. Since he complained of a dry cough and dyspnea associated with severe hypoxemia, and had

Serial lobar lung lavage in pulmonary alveolar proteinosis.

Only registered users can translate articles

Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) is a rare disease with worldwide distribution and an estimated incidence of 0.36 cases per million. We report a case of a PAP coexisting with Pneumocystis jiroveci pneumonia and Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection. The patient was treated with serial lobar lung

Pulmonary arteriovenous malformation: An uncommon disease with common presentation.

Only registered users can translate articles

A 45-year-old male presented with massive hemoptysis, clubbing in all limbs, disproportionate hypoxia and persistent ill-defined shadow in left lower zone in chest radiograph since his childhood. The patient received empirical anti-tuberculosis treatment and the chest X-ray finding was

Models of latent tuberculosis: their salient features, limitations, and development.

Only registered users can translate articles

Latent tuberculosis is a subclinical condition caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, which affects about one-third of the population across the world. To abridge the chemotherapy of tuberculosis, it is necessary to have active drugs against latent form of M. tuberculosis. Therefore, it is imperative

[A case of miliary tuberculosis complicated by disseminated intravascular coagulation and acute respiratory distress syndrome successfully treated with recombinant human soluble thrombomodulin].

Only registered users can translate articles

A 67-year-old woman was referred to our hospital for persistent fever and dyspnea. Chest X-ray revealed diffuse reticulonodular shadows and high-resolution computed tomography showed randomly distributed small nodules. Examination of sputum and urine revealed acid-fast bacilli, which were later

[Pulmonary thromboembolism with pulmonary tuberculosis].

Only registered users can translate articles

Out of 77 patients who were admitted to our hospital because of pulmonary tuberculosis from January 2007 to October 2009, 3 patients (3.9%) suffered from pulmonary thrombotic embolism (PTE) and/or deep venous thrombosis (DVT). Case 1: An 80-year-old male with elevated D-dimer was diagnosed with PTE
