结核分枝杆菌(Mycobacterium tuberculosis,Mtb)的宿主群体的多样性是大多数人类病原体所羡慕的。大约三分之一的人口是皮肤测试阳性的感染,因此被认为是窝藏细菌。在全球范围内,22个“高负担”国家占全世界活动性结核病病例的80%以上,这突出表明该疾病的不公平分布。没有针对感染的有效疫苗,目前的药物治疗充满了问题,主要是由于治疗的长期性质和耐药性的增加。在这里,我们专注于宿主-病原体相互作用的生物学,并讨论新的和不断发展的干预策略。
Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) has a penetrance of its host population that would be the envy of most human pathogens. Approximately 1/3 of the human population is skin test positive for the infection and is thus thought to harbor the bacterium. Globally, 22 “high-burden” countries account for over 80% of the active tuberculosis cases in the world, highlighting the inequitable distribution of the disease. There is no effective vaccine against infection and current drug therapies are fraught with problems, predominantly due to the protracted nature of the treatment and the increasing occurrence of drug resistance. Here we focus on the biology of the host-pathogen interaction and discuss new and evolving strategies for intervention.
