This study shows SMURF2 inhibits autophagy against Mycobacterium tuberculosis in macrophages, suggesting it as a potential target for tuberculosis therapy.

This study identifies CMPK2 as a host factor that restricts Mycobacterium tuberculosis replication in human macrophages and alters gene expression related to innate immunity.

This study identifies SNX5 as a regulator of MHC-II antigen presentation during Mtb infection, linking endosomal sorting to immune responses against intracellular pathogens.

This study investigates how HIV affects Th17 and Th22 cell-mediated immunity in the context of Mycobacterium tuberculosis co-infection using a humanized mouse model.

This study shows that airflow constraints can suppress tuberculosis transmission in guinea pigs, even under conditions that would otherwise allow transmission.

This study shows that Mycobacterium tuberculosis sulfolipid-1 (SL-1) increases TRPV1-positive sensory neuron excitability through Gq/11 pathway activation and intracellular Ca2+ release.

This study shows that Mycobacterium tuberculosis produces phenolic glycolipid (PGL) that activates neurons and induces cough by triggering ATP-mediated P2X3 signaling.

The paper develops a method to image phenolic glycolipid (PGL) in mycobacteria using bioorthogonal metabolic labeling and demonstrates its application in studying PGL dynamics.
