The role of TNFRp55 and TNFRp75 in the host immune response to Mycobacterium tuberculosis
Includes abstract. === Includes bibliographical references (leaves 85-97). === Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα) is critical for host protective immunity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection. TNFRp55 and TNFRp75 can both bind TNFα and conduct signaling, however the respect...
