Association between serum anti-glycopeptidolipid-core IgA antibody titers and clinical characteristics of Mycobacterium avium complex pulmonary disease
Objectives: Mycobacterium avium complex pulmonary disease (MAC-PD) can be serologically diagnosed according to the presence of anti-glycopeptidolipid (GPL)-core IgA antibodies. However, few studies have examined the association between serum anti-GPL-core IgA antibody titers and the clinical charact...
