Fat, lazy and indifferent - profiling persistent drug-tolerant tubercule bacilli from patient sputa during treatment predicts drug efficacy


ABSTRACT: Amplified M.tb RNA derived from 15 subjects at multiple time intervals before and during chemotherapy (totalling 52 samples) was profiled alongside M.tb H37Rv RNA extracted from in vitro log phase bacilli (2 biological replicates hybridised in duplicate) as a standardised comparator. Amplified mycobacterial RNA (2 µg) were directly labelled with Cy3 fluorophore using the Universal Linkage System (ULS, Kreatech Diagnostics). Microarray hybridisations were conducted as previously described using an M.tb complex pan-genome microarray generated by the Bacterial Microarray Group at St. George’s (ArrayExpress accession number A-BUGS-41).

<h4>Background</h4>New treatment options are needed to maintain and improve therapy for tuberculosis, which caused the death of 1.5 million people in 2013 despite potential for an 86 % treatment success rate. A greater understanding of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M.tb) bacilli that persist through drug therapy will aid drug development programs. Predictive biomarkers for treatment efficacy are also a research priority.<h4>Methods and results</h4>Genome-wide transcriptional profiling was used to  ...[more]
