Research progress of association between gene mutation and pyrazinamide resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis / 中国人兽共患病学报

ABSTRACT

Pyrazinamide (PZA) is an important anti-tuberculosis drug especially for treating multidrug-resistant tuberculo sis (MDR-TB).In recent years,the incidence of Mycobacterium tuberculosis' resistance to pyrazinamide has increased.At present,the mechanism of drug resistance has not been clearly elucidated.In this review,the association between gene mutation and pyrazinamide resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis will be summarized.
