Is susceptibility to tuberculosis acquired or inherited?

Journal of internal medicine - 1 Feb 2007

Schurr E

Abstract excerpt

Tuberculosis is an ongoing major public health problem on a global scale. One of the striking features of the disease is that only an estimated 10% of immunocompetent persons infected by the causative pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis will develop clinical signs of disease. This well-established epidemiological observation has prompted an intense search for the factors that trigger advancement of infection to...
