ABSTRACT

Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is responsible for causing tuberculosis (TB) [1], a chronic reemerging infectious disease with a major impact on public health worldwide [2]. Primary TB occurs by inhalation of microdroplets containing Mtb bacilli [3]. If the innate immune response is not efficient to control and eliminate the mycobacteria, then adaptive T cell responses might contain the bacteria resolving the infection [3-5].
