Figure 4From: Identification of tuberculosis-associated proteins in whole blood supernatant Comparison of candidate differential proteins using immunoblotting. Samples were first treated to remove 14 major proteins and then analyzed by immunoblotting to facilitate comparison of RBP4, fetuin-A, and VDBP levels. (A) Representative immunoblot of samples from patient with active TB (Patient-1) versus a control subject (Control-1). (B) Band densities were quantified in patients (n = 4) and control subjects (n = 4). The PMT response suggested band densities. (C) Two-dimensional immunoblot of pooled samples with detection of clusterin-α and -β. CLU is clusterin.Back to article page
