Adequate Th2-type response associates with restricted bacterial growth in latent mycobacterial infection of zebrafish.
Tuberculosis is still a major health problem worldwide. Currently it is not known what kind of immune responses lead to successful control and clearance of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. This gap in knowledge is reflected by the inability to develop sufficient diagnostic and therapeutic tools to fight...
