Host control of <i>Mycobacterium tuberculosis</i> infection is not influenced by the gut microbiome

2026-08-06

Abstract excerpt

Tuberculosis (TB) is a life-threatening disease with heterogenous presentation. Approximately one-quarter of the global population is infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), yet a much smaller fraction develops active TB disease. Host genetics, immune system function, and environmental factors have all been implicated in susceptibility to Mtb, yet no one factor fully explains TB heterogeneity. Strikingly,...
