The importance of humoral immunity in combating TB has gained extensive recognition. In this study, a subunit vaccine named Ag85A-LpqH (AL) was prepared by fusing the antigen Ag85A proved to induce robust T cell immune responses, and LpqH was shown to produce protective antibodies. The prevention and BCG prime-boost mouse models were established to test the vaccine efficacy.

Background And Purpose: The use of 'bath salts' drug preparations has been associated with high rates of toxicity and death. Preparations often contain mixtures of drugs, including multiple synthetic cathinones or synthetic cathinones and caffeine. Little is known about the interactions of 'bath salts' constituents and adverse effects often reported by users.

Background: Mycobacterium bovis BCG is the human tuberculosis vaccine and is the oldest vaccine still in use today with over 4 billion people vaccinated since 1921. The BCG vaccine has also been investigated experimentally in cattle and wildlife by various routes including oral and parenteral. Thus far, oral vaccination studies of cattle have involved liquid BCG or liquid BCG incorporated into a lipid matrix.

Tuberculosis (TB) is a chronic infectious disease caused by (MTB). Tuberculous granuloma is the central and key pathological structure of tuberculosis and is characterized by tissue hypoxia and ineffective drug delivery. To address these issues, this study fabricated a composite nanoparticle loaded with catalase (CAT) and levofloxacin (LEV) (CAT@LEV-NPs) and then combined it with ultrasound (US) to investigate the bactericidal effect and underlying mechanisms using TB spheroids.
