Through the promotion of phagolysosome formation, autophagy has emerged as a crucial mechanism to eradicate intracellular (Mtb). A cell-autonomous host defense mechanism called lysosome biogenesis and autophagy transports cytoplasmic cargos and bacterial phagosomes to lysosomes for destruction during infection. Similar occurrences occurred in stressful or starvation circumstances and led to autophagy, which is harmful to the cell. It is interesting to note that under both hunger and infection states, the transcription factor EB (TFEB) acts as a master regulator of lysosomal activities and autophagy. This review highlighted recent research on the multitier regulation of TFEB-induced autophagy by a variety of host effectors and Mtb sulfolipid during Mtb infection and starvation. In general, the research presented here sheds light on how lysosome biogenesis and autophagy are differentially regulated by the TFEB during Mtb infection and starvation.

Spread of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) to the larynx is exceedingly rare and can be obscured by more common conditions such as laryngeal cancer or oropharyngeal candidiasis, complicating an accurate diagnosis. Risk factors for chronic laryngeal disease, such as smoking and toxin exposure, place TB infection comparatively lower for consideration on a physician's differential. However, identifying these lesions is crucial from a medical and public health perspective to prevent community spread.

Background: Immune imbalance is crucial in tuberculosis pathogenesis and may be modulated by mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). However, how MSCs regulate the host's response to Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is unclear.

Methods: Human umbilical cord-derived MSCs were co-cultured with Mtb-infected THP-1 macrophages.

The great variety of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) profiles among tuberculosis (TB) patients necessitates a comprehensive detection method. This study developed culture-independent, long amplicon-based targeted next-generation sequencing (tNGS) methods for predicting AMR across 16 drugs within the complex (MTBC). Multiplex PCR amplification was employed to enrich 20 gene regions, with sequencing performed on either the Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) or Illumina platforms.
