Expression of Hsp70 and survival of human peripheral blood monocytes in response to in vitro exposure to Mycobacterium tuberculosis

M.Sc. === The induction of heat shock proteins (HSPs) in human monocytes during a pathogen challenge is a sophisticated selective response and plays an important role in cytoprotection from inflammation-related stress, including oxidative injury. We investigated the accumulation of the inducible iso...
