Aerosolized Gamma Interferon (IFN-γ) Induces Expression of the Genes Encoding the IFN-γ-Inducible 10-Kilodalton Protein but Not Inducible Nitric Oxide Synthase in the Lung during Tuberculosis

Gamma interferon (IFN-γ) is critical in the immune response against Mycobacterium tuberculosis. In an ongoing trial of aerosol IFN-γ in conjunction with standard drug therapy, we have observed activation of IFN signaling in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) cells from tuberculosis (TB) patients. We hypot...
