At an individual protein level, a higher abundance in inflammatory protein levels was seen in TB and TB-DM compared to DM, such as for interferon gamma (IFNγ), interleukin-6 (IL-6), extracellular newly identified receptor for advanced glycation end-products binding protein (EN-RAGE), and C-X-C motif chemokine 10 (CXCL10), while some other proteins (e.g., SCF, TNF-related activation-induced cytokine (TRANCE), delta and notch-like epidermal growth factor-related receptor [DNER], and TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) showed the highest abundance in DM. Here, TNFSF10 is linked to diabetes mellitus.
