The correlation of Foxp3 + gene and regulatory T cells with scar BCG formation among children with Tuberculosis
Tuberculosis infection causes a complex immunological response, where interactions between the pathogen and the host are unique, making it difficult to treat and control this disease. According to WHO, an estimated 1 million children became ill with TB, and 233,000 children died of TB in 2017. Bacil...
