Clinical Trial: Autoantibodies Against Specific Cytokines in Adults With Severe Mycobacterial Infection
Study Status: Completed
Recruit Status: Unknown status
Study Type: Observational
Official Title:
Brief Summary: In adult, the prevalence of mycobacterial infections is increased with age is largely unknown. IFN-gamma-IL-12/23 axis or NF-kappaB pathways might also plays crucial roles in adult against mycobacteria. Based on this hypothesis, the investigators had applied a functional assay to these pathways in patients with mycobacterial infection.
