Serodiagnostic evaluation of fusion proteins from multiple antigens of Mycobacterium tuberculosis for active TB

Summary: Tuberculosis remains a global health problem, especially in developing countries. This study focused on developing fusion molecules involving multiple M. tuberculosis antigens to enhance the sensitivity of serodiagnostic assays. By analyzing plasma samples from pulmonary TB patients, it was found that fusion proteins showed higher sensitivity compared to individual antigens, with HspX-EspC-CFP7-PPE57 being the most promising for further development.
