There was a higher rate of CD3+ than CD19+ lymphoblasts, predominance of CD4+ over CD8+ lymphoblasts, IFN-γ, TNF-α and IL-2 production, low production of the Th17-associated IL-17, and discrete or no production of Th2/B cell-associated cytokines soluble CD40 ligand (CD40L), IL-4 and IL-5, indicating a Th1-dominated phenotype and infection restricted to the lungs. Here, IFNG is linked to infection.
