Figure 3. Candidate miRNA expression after activation of naïve T cells and PPD-specific PBMC stimulation.

Figure 3

MiRNA expression was analyzed three and seven days after in vitro activation of naïve T cells from healthy donors (n = 4) with αCD3/CD28 and for PBMCs of LTBI (n = 3) stimulated with M. tuberculosis purified protein derivative (PPD). Expression of the miRNAs was normalized to the housekeeping gene RNU48 and is shown relative to the respective non-stimulated control (dotted line). Median expression and range is shown. Significant differences are indicated as asterisks (* for P<0.05, Kruskal-Wallis test).
