Background: Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTb) is a highly infectious pathogen and a global health threat due to its resilient cell wall and immune evasion strategies. Despite the availability of the antituberculosis Bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccine, its efficacy varies (0%–80%) and gradually decreases over time.
