Prediction of rifampicin resistance beyond the RRDR using structure-based machine learning approaches.

Scientific reports
Rifampicin resistance is a major therapeutic challenge, particularly in tuberculosis, leprosy, P. aeruginosa and S. aureus infections, where it develops via missense mutations in gene rpoB. Previously we have highlighted that these mutations reduce p...

Dynamics of Th1/Th17 responses and antimicrobial pathways in leprosy skin lesions.

The Journal of clinical investigation
BACKGROUNDReversal reactions (RRs) in leprosy are acute immune episodes marked by inflammation and bacterial clearance, offering a model to study the dynamics of host responses to Mycobacterium leprae. These episodes are often severe and difficult to...
