Novel Genetic Locus Associated with Resistance to <i>M. tuberculosis</i> Infection: A Multi-Ancestry Genome-Wide Association Study

2026-03-07

Abstract excerpt

Understanding host susceptibility to Mycobacterium tuberculosis ( Mtb) is critical for the development of new vaccines. Certain individuals “resist” becoming infected with Mtb despite intensive exposure; however, it is unknown whether there is a genetic basis for “resistance” to Mtb infection across populations. Here we conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of resistance to Mtb infection by careful...
