Ultra-low Dose Aerosol Infection of Mice with Mycobacterium tuberculosis More Closely Models Human Tuberculosis

Courtney R. Plumlee et al.

Summary: The study successfully developed a tuberculosis model in mice that more closely resembles human disease by infecting them with an ultra-low dose of bacteria, resulting in highly heterogeneous bacterial burdens and granulomas similar to those in humans. By identifying blood RNA signatures, it was possible to predict infection outcomes in mice and infer the risk of progression to active tuberculosis in humans.
