Small protein tyrosine phosphatase (PtpA) of Mycobacterium tuberculosis is attributed to the development of latent tuberculosis infection, and hence bocomes an interesting target for drug development. In this communication, inhibition of PtpA by naturally occurring fatty acids cis-2 and
Tuberculosis (TB) is a globally prevalent infectious disease. The mechanisms of latent TB infection (LTBI) remain to be fully elucidated and may provide novel approaches for diagnosis. As therapeutic targets and molecular diagnostic markers, microRNAs (miRs) have been studied and utilized in various
