THBD and tuberculosis: Our results demonstrate changes in frequencies of monocytes (classical, CD14++CD16-, intermediate, CD14++CD16+ and non-classical, CD14+/-CD16++) and dendritic cells (DC) (HLA-DR+CD11c+ myeloid DCs, cross-presenting HLA-DR+CD14-CD141+ myeloid DCs and HLA-DR+CD14-CD16-CD11c-CD123+ plasmacytoid DCs) together with elevated Monocyte to Lymphocyte ratios (MLR)/Neutrophil to Lymphocyte ratios (NLR) and alteration of cytokine levels between DS-TB and DR-TB groups.
