A differential DNA methylome signature of pulmonary immune cells from individuals converting to latent tuberculosis infection
Abstract Tuberculosis (TB), caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, spreads via aerosols and the first encounter with the immune system is with the pulmonary-resident immune cells. The role of epigenetic regulations in the immune cells is emerging and we have previously shown that macrophages capacity...
