Decreased Interleukin-1 Family Cytokine Production in Patients with Nontuberculous Mycobacterial Lung Disease

Decreased Interleukin-1 Family Cytokine Production in Patients with Nontuberculous Mycobacterial Lung Disease

ABSTRACT Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) cause pulmonary disease in individuals without obvious immunodeficiency. This study was initiated to gain insight into the immunological factors that predispose persons to NTM pulmonary disease (NTMPD). Blood was obtained from 15 pairs of NTMPD patients and...
