Immunological and Genetic Features of the Human Body Associated with Respiratory Mycobacteriosis (Literature Review)

https://doi.org/10.58838/2075-1230-2025-103-1-94-101

Abstract

This review presents publications on the immunopathogenesis of nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTMB). The publications were selected according to the PRISMA design from international and Russian databases (PubMed, elibrary) using the keywords “non-tuberculous mycobacteriosis”, “immunology”, “genetics”, “diagnostics” in accordance with the MeSH classifier. A total of 50 literature sources were found and analyzed. We identidied main directions in the study of mycobacterial infection pathogenesis, risk factors among immunocompetent individuals, and genetic features of predisposition to mycobacteriosis.
