ABSTRACT: Insights into Mycobacterium tuberculosis DNA extraction for targeted deep sequencing using the Deeplex Myc-TB assay: Lessons for improved drug resistance diagnosis
Project description:Efforts to eradicate TB are largely threatened by drug-resistant tuberculosis, particularly, multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB). It is imperative to find one or more specific biomarkers for diagnosing MDR-TB earlier and declining the incidence. Growing evidences have showed lncRNAs are widely expressed and take part in the genesis and development of many diseases, including tuberculosis. Therefore, to screen the differential lncRNAs among MDR-TB, drug-sensitive tuberculosis(DS-TB) and healthy controls(HCs) is a good strategy to acquire potential biomarkers for MDR-TB diagnosis and partly describe the mechanism of MDR-TB. Here, the present study aimed to investigate the differential expression profile of lncRNAs in serum among patients with MDR-TB ,DS-TB and HCs using lncRNA microarray
