Type 2 Cytokine Gene Activation and Its Relationship to Extent of Disease in Patients with Tuberculosis

1 Jan 2000

Abstract excerpt

The extent of type 2 cytokine gene expression in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) was studied by use of quantitative nested reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction on freshly isolated peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Interleukin (IL)-4 and IL-13 mRNA expression was significantly greater in patients-median mRNA copy numbers were 1.7 and 1.1 log10 higher, respectively-than in matched...
