Abstract
Tuberculosis has remained a global concern for public health affecting the lives of people for ages. Approximately 10 million people are affected by the disease and 1.5 million succumb to the disease worldwide annually. The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the role of early diagnosis to win the battle against such infectious diseases. Thus, advancement in the diagnostic approaches to provide early detection forms the foundation to eradicate and manage contagious diseases like tuberculosis. The conventional diagnostic strategies include microscopic examination, chest X-ray and tuberculin skin test. The limitations associated with sensitivity and specificity of these tests demands for exploring new techniques like probe-based assays, CRISPR-Cas and microRNA detection. The aim of the current review is to envisage the correlation between both the conventional and the newer approaches to enhance the specificity and sensitivity. A significant emphasis has been placed upon nanodiagnostic approaches manipulating quantum dots, magnetic nanoparticles, and biosensors for accurate diagnosis of latent, active and drug-resistant TB. Additionally, we would like to ponder upon a reliable method that is cost-effective, reproducible, require minimal infrastructure and provide point-of-care to the patients.

Exosomal ncRNAs profiling of mycobacterial infection identified miRNA-185-5p as a novel biomarker for tuberculosis. Brief Bioinform 2021; 22:6309357. [PMID: 34169968 DOI: 10.1093/bib/bbab210] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/03/2021] [Revised: 05/07/2021] [Accepted: 05/11/2021] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND There are ever increasing researches implying that noncoded RNAs (ncRNAs) specifically circular RNAs (circRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs) in exosomes play vital roles in respiratory disease. However, the detailed mechanisms persist to be unclear in mycobacterial infection. METHODS In order to detect circRNAs and miRNAs expression pattern and potential biological function in tuberculosis, we performed immense parallel sequencing for exosomal ncRNAs from THP-1-derived macrophages infected by Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Ra, Mycobacterium bovis BCG and control Streptococcus pneumonia, respectively and uninfected normal cells. Besides, THP-1-derived macrophages were used to verify the validation of differential miRNAs, and monocytes from PBMCs and clinical plasma samples were used to further validate differentially expressed miR-185-5p. RESULTS Many exosomal circRNAs and miRNAs associated with tuberculosis infection were recognized. Extensive enrichment analyses were performed to illustrate the major effects of altered ncRNAs expression. Moreover, the miRNA-mRNA and circRNA-miRNA networks were created and expected to reveal their interrelationship. Further, significant differentially expressed miRNAs based on Exo-BCG, Exo-Ra and Exo-Control, were evaluated, and the potential target mRNAs and function were analyzed. Eventually, miR-185-5p was collected as a promising potential biomarker for tuberculosis. CONCLUSION Our findings provide a new vision for exploring biological functions of ncRNAs in mycobacterial infection and screening novel potential biomarkers. To sum up, exosomal ncRNAs might represent useful functional biomarkers in tuberculosis pathogenesis and diagnosis.

Multicenter analysis of sputum microbiota in tuberculosis patients. PLoS One 2020; 15:e0240250.

Abstract
The impact of tuberculosis and of anti-tuberculosis therapy on composition and modification of human lung microbiota has been the object of several investigations. However, no clear outcome has been presented so far and the relationship between M. tuberculosis pulmonary infection and the resident lung microbiota remains vague. In this work we describe the results obtained from a multicenter study of the microbiota of sputum samples from patients with tuberculosis or unrelated lung diseases and healthy donors recruited in Switzerland, Italy and Bangladesh, with the ultimate goal of discovering a microbiota-based biomarker associated with tuberculosis. Bacterial 16S rDNA amplification, high-throughput sequencing and extensive bioinformatic analyses revealed patient-specific flora and high variability in taxon abundance. No common signature could be identified among the individuals enrolled except for minor differences which were not consistent among the different geographical settings. Moreover, anti-tuberculosis therapy did not cause any important variation in microbiota diversity, thus precluding its exploitation as a biomarker for the follow up of tuberculosis patients undergoing treatment.
