Description
Yan Hu and co-authors hunt blood protein markers for tuberculosis diagnosis and prognosis in a 2025 paper. Telling tuberculosis apart from a related lung infection, and active disease from latent infection, defeats current tests too often. Plasma protein patterns might separate the groups more cleanly.
The team profiled blood from five groups: active and latent tuberculosis, the related infection, cured patients, and healthy donors. More than a thousand proteins were measured. Well over one hundred differed across the key comparisons, clustering in outer cell regions. Some tied to inflammation and surface barrier roles, offering candidate markers for stage and treatment response.
