The role of non-coding RNAs in the etiology of tuberculosis. Several ncRNAs enhance host effector killing functions against mycobacterium tuberculosis and favor the bacterium survival and persistence within the infected host. There is knowledge gap about 1- host ncRNAs that regulate the bacterium engulfment within phagosomes and release in extracellular vesicles such as exosomes; 2- the role of Mtb-derived ncRNAs on the outcome of Mtb-macrophage interaction.
