Figure 6.
mRNA transcript analysis of biopsies from TB patients. Granulomatous TB lesion lung biopsies from infiltrative non-cavitary TB patients (n = 4) were analyzed for mRNA expression of MMPs (A) and TIMPs (B). The mRNA levels were normalized to data from lesion-free distal lung parenchyma of the same patients (dotted line) and are expressed as means with SEM.
