ESAT6-induced IFNgamma and CXCL9 can differentiate severity of tuberculosis.
<h4>Background</h4>Protective responses against Mycobacterium tuberculosis are dependent on appropriate T cell and macrophage activation. Mycobacterial antigen six kDa early secreted antigenic target (ESAT6) and culture filtrate protein 10 (CFP10) can detect M. tuberculosis specific IFNg...
