Prolonged B-Lymphocyte-Mediated Immune and Inflammatory Responses to Tuberculosis Infection in the Lungs of TB-Resistant Mice
During tuberculosis (TB) infection, B-lymphocytes migrate to the lungs and form B-cell follicles (BCFs) in the vicinity of TB granulomata. B-cell-lacking mice display enhanced susceptibility to TB infection, and early B-cell depletion in infected non-human primates alters T-lymphocyte cytokine respo...
