In a blood and CSF biomarker study of childhood TBM tuberculomas, magnetic resonance imaging has been used to note an association between tuberculomas and elevated interleukin (IL) 12p40, interferon-inducible protein 10, and monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 concentrations, whereas infarcts were associated with elevated TNF- α, macrophage inflammatory protein 1α, IL-6, and IL-832. Here, IL6 is linked to meningeal tuberculosis.
