Genetic regulation of acquired immune responses to antigens of Mycobacterium tuberculosis: a study of twins in West Africa.

Genetic regulation of acquired immune responses to antigens of Mycobacterium tuberculosis: a study of twins in West Africa.

The role of genetic factors in clinical tuberculosis is increasingly recognized; how such factors regulate the immune response to Mycobacterium tuberculosis in healthy individuals is unclear. In this study of 255 adult twin pairs residing in The Gambia, West Africa, it is apparent that memory T-cell...
