Background: South Africa faces emerging resistance to TB drugs like bedaquiline. Phenotypic drug susceptibility testing (DST), the current reference standard for bedaquiline DST, has long turnaround times. Targeted next-generation sequencing (tNGS) offers a comprehensive alternative, potentially delivering faster results.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disease in which dysregulated interferon regulatory factor 5 (IRF5) may amplify pro-inflammatory pathways; prior genetic studies of IRF5 single-nucleotide variants (SNVs) in RA are inconsistent across populations and have not included mestizo Mexicans or evaluated rs59110799 in RA. We aimed to test whether four IRF5 SNVs (rs2004640G/T, rs2070197T/C, rs10954213G/A, rs59110799G/T) confer susceptibility to RA in women from Central Mexico. In a case-control study of 239 women with RA and 231 female controls (all self-identified Mexican-Mestizos, ≥3 generations), genotyping was performed by real-time PCR with TaqMan® probes; 80% of samples were duplicated (100% concordance) and control genotypes conformed to Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.

X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) is a rare inborn error of immunity caused by loss-of-function mutations in the gene encoding Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK). XLA patients lack mature B cells and have negligible antibody levels, leaving them susceptible to recurrent bacterial and chronic viral infections. Autologous hematopoietic stem cell gene therapy with gene-corrected HSC may serve as a promising treatment of XLA; this therapy would provide a one-time cure and would replace lifelong immunoglobulin replacement therapy.
