Resumen:
Our main aim is to investigate whether M. tuberculosis (Mtb)latency antigens regulate antigen presenting cell (APC)functions. Therefore, our specific objectives were:To analyze if Rv2626c and HspX antigens modulate the expression ofthe receptors TIM-3, PD-L1 and MHC class I on APCs from healthydonors (HD), subjects latently infected with Mtb (LTBI) andtuberculosis patients (TB).To investigate the effect of Rv2626c and HspX antigens on theproduction of cytokines by APCs from HD, TB and LTB
