How does the body defends itself against the TB bacteria?
The immune system attacks the foreign antigen as if it were any bacterial infection. The B-cell lymphocytes mark the TB with antibodies that helps it remember the bacteria in the future. The macrophage then consumes the TB bacteria and keeps it latent, and the TB is unable to infect the body or be contagious. However, if the immune system fails to contain the TB, or it becomes weakened by age, malnutrition or another disease like AIDS, the TB bacteria can escape and infect the body, which is why people can get TB during old age or without a TB infected person coming in contact with them.

How does the tuberculosis infection invade and attack the body?
TB is an ancient infectious disease that has been around for over 30, 000 years. It is Caused by infection from Mycobacterium tuberculosis and in most cases affects the lungs. It is found worldwide. The bacilli spores are transmitted through the air when an infected person coughs or sneezes, but you have to spend quite a long time with an infected person in order to catch TB. It cannot be transmitted by objects such as bed linen or clothes, although it is possible to contract TB by drinking unpasteurised milk products from an infected cow. Written by Anisa Zulfqar
If were treated for latent tb can still develope active tb?
Latent TB can develop into Active TB. When the TB is latent, the mycobacteria causing the infection has been targeted and effectively "trapped" within calcified lumps in the affected organ / tissue. If the immune system becomes weakened for some reason (eg. old age, other disease) then the TB bacteria is often able to break through the lumps, and so becomes active.
