Gene expression signatures identify biologically and clinically distinct tuberculosis endotypes

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: , animal model and clinical evidence suggests that tuberculosis is not a monomorphic disease, and that host response to tuberculosis is protean with multiple distinct molecular pathways and pathologies (endotypes). We applied unbiased clustering to identify separate tuberculosis endotypes with classifiable gene expression patterns and clinical outcomes. METHODS: A cohort comprised of microarray gene...
