Delayed Adaptive Immune Response to Tuberculosis Points to Vaccination Strategies - Genetic Engineering & Biotechnology News

Researchers suggest vaccination strategies against TB should be adjusted to prime T cell responses and kick them into gear at the early stages of infection.

The immune response against tuberculosis (TB) infections develops at least twice as slowly as that triggered by other infectious diseases that affect the lungs. A study in non-human primates by Unive… [+6683 chars]
