Detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in human tissue via RNA in situ hybridization

k. Nargan, T. Naidoo, M. Msimang, S. Nadeem, G. Wells, R. L. Hunter, A. Hutton, K. Lumamba, J. N. Glasgow, P. V. Benson, A. J. Steyn

This paper uses RNA in situ hybridization to detect Mycobacterium tuberculosis mRNA in human tissue, identifying Mtb in ZN-negative samples and revealing two distinct Mtb populations.

NAD(H) homeostasis is essential for host protection mediated by glycolytic myeloid cells in tuberculosis

H. T. Pacl, K. C. Chinta, V. P. Reddy, S. Nadeem, R. R. Sevalkar, K. Nargan, K. Lumamba, T. Naidoo, J. N. Glasgow, A. Agarwal, A. J. C. Steyn

This study shows that NAD(H) homeostasis in glycolytic myeloid cells is critical for host protection against tuberculosis, with nicotinamide reducing Mtb lung burden.

3D microarchitecture of the human tuberculous granuloma

G. A. Wells, J. N. Glasgow, K. Nargan, K. Lumamba, R. Madansein, K. Maharaj, R. L. Hunter, T. Naidoo, P. Ramdial, L. Coetzer, S. le Roux, A. du Plessis, A. J. Steyn

This study uses 3D X-ray imaging to reveal complex, branched structures of human tuberculous granulomas, challenging the traditional view of spherical granulomas and suggesting implications for TB treatment strategies.
