title: Th1 T-cell and monocyte defects.
abstract: Mutations predisposing to infections with intracellular pathogens and affecting Th1 T-cells and monocytes have been identified in the past few years. In this article, the authors review the interaction of T cells and monocytes in the context of host defense against intracellular pathogens. Known genetic defects in these pathways are summarized.
