New observations of the early stages of tuberculosis infection may turn scientists' understanding of the bug's pathogenesis on its head: clumps of immune cells, called granulomas, long thought to ...

Researchers have identified a lipid-driven biophysical mechanism that allows tuberculosis-causing mycobacteria to survive inside human immune cells, a discovery that could inform novel ...

Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease that kills more than a million people worldwide every year. The pathogen that causes the disease, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, is deadly in part because of ...

Disseminated tuberculosis is a type of tuberculosis (TB) where mycobacteria spread via blood to other organs beyond the lungs. It can cause severe multiple-organ damage in the absence of early ...

Untreated tuberculosis may result in several long-term complications, such as permanent lung damage. It’s vital for the condition to be treated early to prevent the infection from traveling to other ...
