Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study was performed in tuberculosis-endemic area in Kenya to address molecular mechanisms of latency and know the fundamental knowledge for prediction of disease progression. We found some M. tuberculosis antigens are well recognized by host immune response, while some other antigens were done in individuals with asymptomatic infection. This suggested that detection of the immune responses to M. tuberculosis antigens can be applied for diagnosis of asymptomatic infection and disease progression. We also found elevated HDL-cholesterol levels in M. tuberculosis-infected individuals. We found human macrophages produces TNF-alpha, a host protective cytokine against tuberculosis, depending on TLR2 upon M. tuberculosis infection. And HDL suppresses TLR2 expression and its cellar signaling. These suggest that higher HDL level may be risk of both asymptomatic and active tuberculosis.
