... structures persisted for 96h, and then began to disappear. Microarray analysis revealed the strong activation of genes of the innate immune response and antigen presentation pathways in response to mycobacterial cells. Among activated genes we found TLR-2, TNF-R1, IL-1, IL6, CXCR4, and several chemo ...
