Experimental sketch for preclinical examination of sex-differences in responsiveness to HDTs. The experimental strategy would help to determine sex-based differences in clinical, microbiological, immunological and histopathological outcomes in M. tuberculosis infected (i) C3HeB/FeJ male and female mice and (ii) human monocyte-derived macrophages from healthy male and female donors before and after treatment with HDTs. Several untargeted and targeted approaches can be used to investigate the molecular mechanisms associated with the sex-specific anti-TB activity of HDTs. MDMs, monocyte-derived macrophages; shRNA, Small hairpin RNA.
