Lung cell responses to M. tuberculosis in genetically susceptible and resistant mice following intratracheal challenge.

abstract：:It has been postulated that IgA nephropathy (IgAGN) is caused by deposition within the glomerular mesangium of IgA polymers and IgA containing immune complexes which are overproduced in response to antigens presented at mucosal surfaces. To test this, the concentrations of specific antibodies to capsular polysaccharid...
