Abstract excerpt
Natural Killer (NK) cells can recognize and kill Mtb -infected cells in vitro, however their role after natural human exposure has not been well-studied. To identify Mtb -responsive NK cell populations, we analyzed the peripheral blood of healthy household contacts of active Tuberculosis (TB) cases and source community donors in an endemic region of Port-au-Prince, Haiti by flow cytometry.
