Immunopathogenesis of pulmonary tuberculosis.

A M Dannenberg1.   

Abstract

Antimicrobial therapy quickly eradicates susceptible bacilli, but the fight against drug-resistant disease must be waged entirely by host defenses. Knowledge of the two main types of immune response against tuberculosis and of how to manipulate those mechanisms--leading to precisely designed recombinant BCG vaccines--is essential to mounting an effective attack on the current epidemic.
