No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Tuberculosis (TB), caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), is a deadly infectious disease and major global public health problem. Recent evidence from animal studies suggests that the microbiome plays a role in TB pathogenesis and immune response. However, until now, no similar study has been performed in humans and thus any influence of the microbiota on TB or vice versa remains unknown.
