Assessment of the relationship between serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D3, human alveolar macrophage function, and in vitro and in vivo outcomes of M. tuberculosis exposure

2017-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Approximately 50% of individuals may be resistant to infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M.tb), the causative agent of tuberculosis (TB). Pulmonary innate immunity is likely to be important in shaping this, although it is unclear how this is determined in the human lung. Ethnicity influences infection rates following exposure to TB, and is associated with differential phenotypes in established TB disease; t...
