Reactivation of latent tuberculosis through modulation of resuscitation promoting factors by diabetes

Abstract The evidence of an association between diabetes and latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) remains limited and inconsistent. Thus, the study aims to delineate the role of diabetes in activation of latent tuberculosis infection. Murine model of latent tuberculosis and diabetes was developed, b...
