Article Synopsis
- Tuberculosis (TB) remains a significant global health issue despite BCG vaccination efforts, warranting research into improved vaccine strategies.
- A study found that administering BCG via intravenous (IV) route instead of intradermal (ID) enhanced protection against TB in a non-human primate model.
- Depletion of specific lymphocyte types, particularly CD4 T cells and innate CD8α+ lymphocytes, compromised this protection, indicating their crucial role in developing more effective TB vaccines.
