Rare Variable <i>M. tuberculosis</i> Antigens induce predominant Th17 responses in human infection
2024-03-06
Abstract excerpt
CD4 T cells are essential for immunity to M. tuberculosis ( Mtb ), and emerging evidence indicates that IL-17-producing Th17 cells contribute to immunity to Mtb . While identifying protective T cell effector functions is important for TB vaccine design, T cell antigen specificity is also likely to be important. To identify antigens that induce protective immunity, we reasoned that as in other pathogens, effecti...
