Abstract excerpt
One approach to study the role of distinct cellular mechanisms in susceptibility/resistance to tuberculosis (TB) is to compare parameters of response to infection in the lungs of mouse strains exhibiting genetically determined differences in TB susceptibility/severity. Interstrain differences in antimycobacterial macrophage reactions, T cell responses & inflammation in the lungs of TB-susceptible I/St,...
