FCGR1A and tuberculosis: The higher expression of FcγR1A and LTF in TB patients has been reported previously in Germany [12] with microarray analysis of PBMCs from TB patients and healthy donors and in Gambia and Paraguay with MLPA [15] and a recent study showed expression of significantly higher level expression of FcγR1A in participants with active TB than in those with LTBI before treatment regardless of HIV status or genetic background [20].
