Enterovirus 71 infection of human airway organoids reveals VP1-145 as a viral infectivity determinant.

abstract：:Pyrazinamide (PZA) is a key antibiotic in current anti-tuberculosis regimens. Although the WHO has stressed the urgent need to obtain data on PZA resistance, in high tuberculosis burden countries, little is known about the level of PZA resistance, the genetic basis of such resistance or its link with Mycobacterium tub...
