Relative permissiveness of macrophages from black and white people for virulent tubercle bacilli

1 Mar 1990

Abstract excerpt

Epidemiological, clinical, and histopathological evidence suggests that black people are more susceptible to tuberculosis than are white people. The cellular basis of this putative susceptibility was investigated in vitro by comparing responses of blood-derived macrophages from black and white donors to experimental infection with virulent tubercle bacilli. Phagocytes from pairs of black and white donors were...
