Abstract
Both murine peritoneal macrophages and human alveolar lavage cells inhibited growth of M. tuberculosis in a medium containing 10% foetal calf serum. However, whereas addition of recombinant gamma interferon or crude lymphokine reproducibly activated further strong anti-mycobacterial mechanisms in the murine cells, these stimuli had weak and variable effects on human alveolar cells.Entities:
