Bovine tuberculosis (BTB) is an infectious disease of livestock and wildlife species that is caused by pathogenic members of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex such as Mycobacterium bovis. Due to the introduction of M. bovis-infected bison in the 1920s, BTB is now endemic in wood bison (Bison bison athabascae) population within the Wood Buffalo National Park (WBNP) in northern Canada.

Background: Tuberculosis is one of the leading causes of death from infectious diseases in the world, with approximately 25% of the global population having latent tuberculosis infection. Secondhand smoke exposure has been recognised as a significant risk factor in the development of active Tuberculosis in individuals with latent tuberculosis infection.
Study Design And Methods: This study used the Systematic Literature Review method based on PRISMA guidelines.
The mycomembrane of mycobacteria has long been regarded as the primary barrier to the accumulation of molecules within these bacteria. Understanding accumulation beyond the mycomembrane of ( ) is crucial for developing effective antimycobacterial agents. This study investigates two design principles commonly found in natural products and mammalian cell-permeable peptides - backbone -methylation and macrocyclization - aimed at enhancing accumulation.

The efficacy of many compounds against is often limited when administered via conventional oral or injection routes due to suboptimal pharmacokinetic characteristics. Inhalation-based delivery methods have been investigated to achieve high local therapeutic doses in the lungs. However, previous models, typically employing wild-type strains, were intricate, time-consuming, labor-intensive, and with poor reproducibility.
