Log₁₀ CFU counts of M. tuberculosis H₃₇Rv in THP-1 cells infected with active and latent bacilli in the presence of different glucose concentrations at different time intervals. (A) On day 0 of infection. (B) On day 1 of infection. (C) On day 3 of infection. (D) On day 6 of infection. Values are Mean ±SE of three independent experiments. *p ≤0.05, **p ≤0.01, and ***p ≤0.001 represent the comparison between different glucose concentrations in the active group. ^##p ≤0.01 and ^###p ≤0.001 represent the comparison between different glucose concentrations in the latent group.
