ITGAM and tuberculosis: In contrast, the transfer of MSC to TB- mice affected both populations, slightly increasing the frequency of DC (1,3 fold, p<0.05), decreasing the percent of macrophages (1,6 fold, p<0.05) and up-regulating the expression of MHC class II (by both populations, 1.6 and 3,5 fold, p<0.05 and p<0.01, respectively, Fig 3D and 3F) and CD11b (by DC, 2.0 fold, p<0.05, data not shown).
