C1q in non-immune human serum has a non-redundant complement function towards clinical Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex strains

2024-11-03

Abstract excerpt

The Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC) includes three human-adapted species: Mycobacterium tuberculosis , Mycobacterium africanum , and Mycobacterium canettii . With their genetic diversity and inherent virulence, these bacteria interact with host factors to influence tuberculosis (TB) transmission and pathogenesis. A critical yet poorly understood aspect of the immune response in TB involves the role o...
