Clinical Study

T Cell Reactivity against Mycolyl Transferase Antigen 85 of M. tuberculosis in HIV-TB Coinfected Subjects and in AIDS Patients Suffering from Tuberculosis and Nontuberculous Mycobacterial Infections

Figure 3

Individual IFN- production (pg/mL) by PBMC in response to different antigens from HIV-positive (a) or HIV-negative (b) patients with active tuberculosis. A negative response was considered as less than mean 2SD of the IFN- production by PBMC from tuberculin-positive/HIV-positive (a) and tuberculin-positive/HIV-negative (b) controls. The circle patients with active tuberculosis. The grey rectangle mean 2SD of the IFN- produced by PBMC from tuberculin-positive/HIV-positive or HIV-negative controls.
