Comparative Analysis of Cytokine mRNA Expressions in Human Tissues With Mycobacterium Tuberculosis Infection
2021-01-21
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> One of the widely used diagnostic methods for Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) infection is the acid-fast bacilli staining of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues; however, this method cannot discriminate between MTB and nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) species.
