Abstract
Fifty patients of bone and joint tuberculosis (age 15-70 years) and 30 healthy controls were studied for levels of immunoglobulin G (IgG), immunoglobulin A (IgA), immunoglobulin M (IgM), T cells and circulating immune complexes (CICs) in different stages of disease. Levels of IgG, IgA, IgM, T cells and CICs were significantly raised in fresh and healed tuberculosis patients, compared to control.
