Neutrophil CD64 expression levels in IGRA-positive individuals distinguish latent tuberculosis from active disease

Neutrophil CD64 expression levels in IGRA-positive individuals distinguish latent tuberculosis from active disease

BACKGROUND CD64 (FcγR1) is a high-affinity receptor for monomeric IgG1 and IgG3. Circulating neutrophils express very low amounts of CD64 on their surface. OBJECTIVES Our primary aim was to investigate the utility of neutrophil CD64 surface expression as a biomarker of active pulmonary tuberculos...
