In contrast, following HBHA stimulation, the proportion of IL-17+ CD4+ T cells was significantly increased in participants with LTBI compared to those with active TB (median [IQR] 0.64 [0.147-1.223] for TB and 1.00 [0.355-2.12]) for LTBI; p=0.0076; Figure 1F). The gene discussed is IL17A; the disease is tuberculosis.
