The relationship between acquired specific resistance and delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) in immunity to tuberculosis has long been a topic of debate. Here, Ian Orme and Andrea Cooper propose that the events are separate mechanisms; protection is cytokine driven and initially controls the infection, whereas DTH is primarily chemokine driven and functions to wall off the infection and prevent further dissemination.
在结核病免疫中,获得性特异性抗性与迟发型超敏反应(DTH)之间的关系长期以来一直是一个争论的话题。在此,伊恩·奥姆和安德里亚·库珀提出,这两种情况是不同的机制;保护性反应由细胞因子驱动,最初控制感染,而迟发型超敏反应主要由趋化因子驱动,其作用是隔离感染并防止进一步扩散。
