Immunogenicity of dormancy-related antigens in individuals infected with <i>Mycobacterium tuberculosis</i> in Japan
15 May 2013
Abstract excerpt
SETTING: DosR regulon genes are considered essential for Mycobacterium tuberculosis dormancy, and their products are demonstrated to have immunogenicity in M. tuberculosis-infected individuals, suggesting that DosR regulon-encoded proteins are suitable targets for vaccines to control the reactivation of dormant M. tuberculosis. OBJECTIVE: Prospective analysis of T-cell and antibody responses against DosR...
