However, significant association was observed between i) circulating IP-10 levels and time to Mycobacterium Growth Indicator Tube (MGIT) culture conversion (p =0.032); ii) smear grade among active TB patients and circulating IP-10 levels (p =0 .032).
IL-2 rs2069762 (recessive comparison), IL-4rs2243250 (recessive and allele comparisons), IL-6 rs1800795 (dominant, recessive and allele comparisons), IL-8 rs4073 (dominant, recessive and allele comparisons), IL-10 rs1800871 (dominant, recessive and allele comparisons) and IL-10 rs1800896 (recessive comparison) polymorphisms were all significantly associated with TB in the total population.
This study suggests that NAT2*13A and NAT2*6B variant alleles are risk factors for developing hepatotoxicity, and PLWHA with genotypes NAT2*13A/NAT2*13A and NAT2*13A/NAT2*6B should be targeted for specific care to reduce the risk of hepatotoxicity during treatment for tuberculosis.
Moreover, to enhance vaccine immunogenicity, two toll-like receptors 4 (TLR4) agonists, resuscitation-promoting factors of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (RpfE and RpfB), were employed as the built-in adjuvants.
We assessed the number of patients that developed typical (Mycobacterium tuberculosis [MTB]) and atypical mycobacterial infections (AMI) while on treatment with ruxolitinib by utilizing the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) adverse events reporting system (FAERS).
The IFN-γ release responses to Rv1986-P9, P15, P16, Rv1988-P4, P11, and Rv1987-P11 were significantly higher in the active TB group than in the control groups (p<0.05).
Moreover, it was observed that nicotine decreases the production of interleukin (IL)-6 and C-C chemokine ligand (CCL)5 during Mtb infection in epithelial cells (EpCs), whereas in macrophages derived from human monocytes (MDMs) there is a decrease in IL-8, IL-6, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, IL-10, CCL2, C-X-C chemokine ligand (CXCL)9 and CXCL10 only during infection with Mtb.
IFN-γ release assays (IGRAs) have suboptimal sensitivity for detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection and cannot discriminate between tuberculosis (TB) patients and healthy -potentially Mtb infected- contacts (HCs).
IL-2rs2069762 (recessive comparison), IL-4 rs2243250 (recessive and allele comparisons), IL-6 rs1800795 (dominant, recessive and allele comparisons), IL-8 rs4073 (dominant, recessive and allele comparisons), IL-10 rs1800871 (dominant, recessive and allele comparisons) and IL-10 rs1800896 (recessive comparison) polymorphisms were all significantly associated with TB in the total population.

Collectively, this meta-analysis proved that IL-6 rs1800795, IL-18rs1946518 and IL-18rs187238 polymorphisms may confer susceptibility to TB, especially for Asians.

Examination of the interactions has shown that many of the key residues for inhibitor binding were found in mutations of the InhA gene in the isoniazid-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
Taken together, our results demonstrated that PAS resistance and mutations in katG, inhA promoter or oxyR-ahpC intergenic region in INH resistant M. tuberculosis has little effect on pasiniazid susceptibility.
