CCR4-dependent reduction in the number and suppressor function of CD4(+)Foxp3(+) cells augments IFN-γ-mediated pulmonary inflammation and aggravates tuberculosis pathogenesis

Chronic pulmonary inflammation marked predominantly by CD4(+)IFN-γ(+) cells is the hallmark of tuberculosis pathogenesis in immunocompetent adults, who are substantially affected by this disease.
