Upon stimulation with M. tuberculosis for 6 h, several of the MMP transcripts including MMP-1, MMP-3, MMP-7, and MMP-10 (pcorr ≤ 0.05) increased in abundance in both TB-IRIS and non-IRIS patients when compared with those of unstimulated cultures (Supporting Information Table 3). Here, MMP1 is linked to tuberculosis.
