Fig. 4From: Monocyte unresponsiveness and impaired IL1β, TNFα and IL7 production are associated with a poor outcome in Malawian adults with pulmonary tuberculosisTNFα production in response to stimulation with H37Rv and LPS in ‘classical’ CD14hiCD16lo and CD14loCD16hi monocyte populations. A significantly greater percentage of CD14hiCD16lo cells produced TNFα in response to stimulation with H37Rv (p = 0.0002) and LPS (p < 0.0001)Back to article page
