Extracellular vesicles released by mycobacteria stiffen host cell membranes, disrupting immune defense mechanisms and revealing a new pathway for pathogen survival and potential therapeutic...

Researchers show tuberculosis bacteria use extracellular vesicles to stiffen immune cell membranes, blocking phagosome-lysosome fusion and enabling intracellular survival through lipid...

The rapid diagnosis of tuberculosis (TB) is important for patient treatment and infection control. Current molecular diagnostic techniques for TB have insufficient sensitivity to detect samples with low bacterial loads. The sensitivity of molecular testing...
