Immune profiling of <i>Mycobacterium tuberculosis</i>-specific T cells in recent and remote infection
2020-11-16
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> Recent Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M.tb) infection is associated with a higher risk of progression to tuberculosis disease, compared to persistent infection after remote exposure. However, current immunodiagnostic tools fail to distinguish between recent and remote infection. We aimed to characterise the immunobiology associated with acquisition of M.tb infection and identify a biomarker that c...
