BCG vaccination-induced long-lasting control of Mycobacterium tuberculosis correlates with the accumulation of a novel population of CD4+ IL-17+ TNF+ IL-2+ T cells
Highlights • Mice were vaccinated with BCG for 21 or 120 days before challenged with Mtb. • Mice challenged 120 days after BCG vaccination displayed improved control of Mtb. • BCG-mediated control of Mtb correlates with the IL-17 response and is independent of the magnitude of the IFN-γ response in...

Zusammenfassung: | Highlights • Mice were vaccinated with BCG for 21 or 120 days before challenged with Mtb. • Mice challenged 120 days after BCG vaccination displayed improved control of Mtb. • BCG-mediated control of Mtb correlates with the IL-17 response and is independent of the magnitude of the IFN-γ response in the lung. • Long-lasting control of Mtb correlates with the accumulation of CD4+ T cells producing IL-17, TNF and IL-2. |
