MtrAB two-component system is crucial for the intrinsic resistance and virulence of Mycobacterium abscessus

J. Zhang, Y. Ju, L. Li, H. M. Adnan, B. Yusuf, Y. Gao, C. Fang, X. Tian, J. Ding, W. Ma, X. Chen, S. Wang, T. Zhang

This study shows that disrupting MtrA or MtrB in Mycobacterium abscessus increases antibiotic susceptibility and reduces virulence by affecting cell division and permeability.

High-throughput Screening of Compounds against Autoluminescent Nonreplicating Mycobacterium tuberculosis under Diverse Conditions

X. Tian, W. Ma, B. Yusuf, C. Li, H. M. A. Hameed, X. Wang, N. Zhong, J. Hu, T. Zhang

This paper develops an autoluminescent model to assess anti-tuberculosis drugs against nonreplicating M. tuberculosis, showing real-time light output correlates with colony-forming units and reveals drug efficacy differences under anaerobic vs aerobic conditions.

Endothelial integration of mechanosensory signals by the spectrin cytoskeleton

S. Mylvaganam, B. Yusuf, R. Li, C.-Y. Lu, L. A. Robinson, S. A. Freeman, S. Grinstein

This study shows that the spectrin cytoskeleton in endothelial cells is essential for sensing and transmitting shear stress to mechanosensors, leading to vasoactive responses.
