Recent advances in our understanding of human host responses to tuberculosis.

Respiratory research - 1 Jan 2001

Schluger N W

Abstract excerpt

Tuberculosis remains one of the world's greatest public health challenges: 2 billion persons have latent infection, 8 million people develop active tuberculosis annually, and 2-3 million die. Recently, significant advances in our understanding of the human immune response against tuberculosis have occurred. The present review focuses on recent work in macrophage and T-cell biology that sheds light on the human...
