Comparison of in vitro CFUs of M. bovis BCG after overexpression of IFITs at 12-hours and 96-hours (A); and knock-down of IFITs at 12-hours and 96-hours (B). Compared to M. bovis BCG, we observed significant reduction of CFUs after overexpression of IFITs and significant increase of CFUs after knock-down of IFITs. The results indicate the association of IFITs with in vitro survival of Mycobacteria. BCG, Bacillus Calmette-Guerin; IFIT, interferon-induced protein with tetratricopeptide. Table 2 depicts the %-increase or decrease in CFUs after in vitro knock-down and overexpression respectively. ***p<0.001.
