Current opinion in immunology, 1993•ElsevierRecent progress in the field of immunity to mycobacteria has centered on T cell subset
responses and the cytokines these cells secrete. In addition, there has been steady progress
in identifying and characterizing several classes of major mycobacterial proteins; included
amongst these are the secreted/export proteins of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, which
several laboratories now believe may represent the key protective immunity-inducing
antigens of the bacillus.
