Next, we measured the distributions of MXF, LVX, and GTX from plasma into uninvolved lung tissue, cellular and necrotic granulomas, and cavity caseum (see Data Set S1 in the supplemental material) in rabbits that were infected with M. tuberculosis HN878 until mature lesions developed, or 13 to 22 weeks postinfection. Here, NKX6-2 is linked to Granuloma.
