Recovery from T cell depletion during murine listeriosis and effect on a T-dependent antibody response.

abstract：:Tuberculosis remains a leading killer worldwide, and new approaches for its treatment and prevention are urgently needed. This effort will benefit greatly from a better understanding of gene regulation in Mycobacterium tuberculosis, particularly with respect to this pathogen's response to its host environment. We exam...
