    • BoLA-DRB3 exon2 polymorphisms among tuberculous cattle: Nucleotide and functional variability and their association with bovine tuberculosis pathology 

      Eirin, Maria Emilia; Carignano, Hugo Adrian; Shimizu, Ernesto; Pando, Maria de los Angeles; Zumarraga, Martin Jose; Magnano, Gabriel; Macías, Analía; Garbaccio, Sergio Gabriel; Huertas, Pablo Sebastian; Morsella, Claudia Graciela; Ferrara Muñiz, Ximena; Cataldi, Angel Adrian; Paolicchi, Fernando; Poli, Mario Andres (Elsevier, 2020-06)
      Bovine tuberculosis (bTB) is caused by Mycobacterium bovis and disseminated worldwide. In Argentina, the highest prevalence occurs in dairy areas. BoLA DRB3.2 is related to the adaptive immunity in mycobacterial infections. ...

    • Mycobacterium bovis ESAT-6, CFP-10 and EspC antigens show high conservation among field isolates 

      Encinas, Micaela; Marfil, Maria Jimena; Garbaccio, Sergio Gabriel; Barandiaran, Soledad; Huertas, Pablo Sebastian; Morsella, Claudia Graciela; Macias, Analía; Magnano, Gabriel; Zapata, L.; Bigi, Fabiana; Cataldi, Angel Adrian; Paolicchi, Fernando; Zumarraga, Martin Jose; Eirin, Maria Emilia (Elsevier, 2018-07)
      ESAT-6, CFP-10 and EspC are virulence factors that have been extensively assayed for bovine and human tuberculosis diagnosis due their potent T-cell inducing activities. While polymorphisms of ESAT-6 and CFP-10 were analyzed, ...

    • Polymorphisms of 20 regulatory proteins between Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycobacterium bovis 

      Bigi, María Mercedes; Blanco, Federico Carlos; Araujo, Flabio Ribeiro de; Thacker, Tyler C.; Zumarraga, Martin Jose; Cataldi, Angel Adrian; Soria, Marcelo Abel; Bigi, Fabiana (2016)
      Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycobacterium bovis are responsible for tuberculosis in humans and animals, respectively. Both species are closely related and belong to the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTC). M. ...

    • Single nucleotide polymorphisms may explain the contrasting phenotypes of two variants of a multidrug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis strain 

      Bigi, María Mercedes; López, Beatriz; Blanco, Federico Carlos; Sasiain, María del Carmen; De La Barrera, Silvia Susana; Marti, Marcelo Adrián; Sosa, Ezequiel Jorge; Fernandez Do Porto, Darío Augusto; Ritacco, Viviana; Bigi, Fabiana; Soria, Marcelo Abel (2017)
      Globally, about 4.5% of new tuberculosis (TB) cases are multi-drug-resistant (MDR), i.e. resistant to the two most powerful first-line anti-TB drugs. Indeed, 480,000 people developed MDR-TB in 2015 and 190,000 people died ...
