An evolutionary recent IFN-IL-6-CEBP axis is linked to monocyte expansion and tuberculosis severity in humans
2019-01-09
Abstract excerpt
Monocyte counts are increased during human tuberculosis (TB) but it has not been determined whether Mycobacterium tuberculosis ( Mtb ) directly regulates myeloid commitment. We demonstrated that exposure to Mtb directs primary human CD34 + cells to differentiate into monocytes/macrophages. In vitro myeloid conversion did not require type I or type II IFN signaling. In contrast, Mtb enhanced IL-6 responses by...
