Investigating Immune Correlates of Protection to Tuberculosis Using an Ultra-Low Dose Infection in a Mouse Model
BACKGROUND: Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M.tb) is the leading infectious cause of mortality; however, there is no vaccine that confers lasting protection. To investigate the immune response to M.tb, we have developed an ultra-low dose (ULD) infection model in mice that better reflects the heterogeneo...
