New treatment option for latent tuberculosis
This release is available in French . Montreal, December 31st, 2008 Patients who are infected with the latent form of tuberculosis (TB) show no symptoms and are not contagious, yet they pose the biggest challenge when it comes to controlling the disease. The latest study by Dr. Dick Menzi...New Latent TB Drug Saves Lives, Money
Rifampin improved compliance, reduced side effects, saved $10,000 per patient TUESDAY, May 20 (HealthDay News) -- Using the drug Rifampin to treat people with latent tuberculosis saves time, money and lives, new research shows. "We found that using a therapy of four months of Rifa...Rifampin: Latent TB treatment saves time money and lives
ATS 2008, TORONTOA new way to treat patients with latent tuberculosis (TB), who are infected with TB but without symptoms, can effectively treat it in less than half the time and at a lower cost than the current standard treatment, according to researchers who conducted a multi-center, randomized ...New chemical can kill latent tuberculosis bacteria
NEW YORK (March 13, 2008) -- Success in the laboratory suggests that a new compound can point the way to preventing active tuberculosis in people infected with the latent form of the bacterium, says a team led by researchers at Weill Cornell Medical College in New York City. A drug with such prope...High Rates of Latent TB Infection Found in Russian Health Workers
Testing for tuberculosis has revealed that nearly 40% of the doctors in one Russian city have latent infection, with even higher levels// in those who work in TB clinics. The research has been published in PLoS Medicine. TB disease is a growing problem worldwide. Russia is one country where i...Detecting Latent Tuberculosis Effective With Blood Tests
Italian researchers claim the superiority of blood tests over skin tests for detecting people with latent tuberculosis. //According to them blood tests are effective, reliable and therefore holds promise in detecting latent TB.

Researchers at the University of North Carolina have found that administrating Valporic acid can kill dormant HIV persistent in the infected cells.

Most viruses, including herpes, cause both active infections and also hide within the body for long periods of time, causing no immediate infection // but can strike again whenever resistance is lowered.

Tuberculosis drug shows promise against latent bacteria
A new study has shown that an investigational drug (R207910, currently in clinical trials against multi-drug resistant tuberculosis strains) is quite effective at killing latent bacteria.

Upon entering a cell, a virus often becomes dormant, turning off its genes and laying low until awakened by som e trigger from its environment. When that trigger is pulled, the virus quickly ramps up production of proteins through built-in positive-feedback loops that turn up gene transcription. (I...Treating populations infected with HIV and latent TB could speed the emergence of drug-resistant TB
In 2005, 46 regional Ministers of Health in Africa declared that a dramatic rise in tuberculosis (TB) cases was cause for emergency.

When indiv...Experimental TB drug effective against resistant and latent mycobacterium tuberculosis

For a virus to survive, it must elude the ever vigilant immune sentinels of its host. A latent virus can escape immune detection if it resides in nondividing cells and doesn’t produce any proteins.
