摘要

Objectives: In the performance of interferon gamma release assays (IGRA) for the diagnosis of tuberculosis (TB) infection, false-negative results are a major obstacle. In active TB patients, treatment-dependent changes of the negative test results remain unknown. Methods: The treatment course of 19 smear-positive/culture-confirmed TB patients who had IGRA-negative results by QuantiFERON-TB in-tube (QFT-IT) method at the time of diagnosis (month 0) in a previous study, were monitored in the present study. Blood was further collected at months 2 and 7, and the concentrations of 27 immune molecules were measured in the plasma supernatants remaining after performing the IGRA, using a suspension array system. Results: After initiating treatment, eight of the 19 QFT-IT-negative patients showed positive conversion, whereas the remaining 11 (58%) did not; the interferon gamma (IFN-@c) response was restored to levels higher than 1 IU/ml in only three of the eight patients with positive conversion. Plasma concentrations of interleukin 1 receptor antagonist, interleukin 2, and interferon gamma-induced protein 10 remained low after Mycobacterium tuberculosis-specific antigen stimulation at months 2 and 7 in the continuously QFT-IT-negative group, whereas the parameters were elevated only in the transiently QFT-IT-negative group. Conclusions: It was demonstrated that a majority of active TB patients showing negative IGRA results did not regain sufficient levels of immune responsiveness despite successful treatment.
