dc.description.abstractBackground Tuberculosis causes 2 million deaths per year and is the most important opportunistic infection in patients infected with HIV. During the co-infection of HIV/TB, natural regulatory T cells (CD4+ FOXP3+) down regulate Th1/Th2 responses. Our study analysed the regulatory Tcell phenotypes amongst participants dually infected with HIV/TB, HIV or TB alone and healthy HIV negative controls and used it as the basis for analysing anti-TB responses and gene expression in HIV infected participants.en_ZA
