Circulating Angiogenic Factors as Biomarkers of Disease Severity and Bacterial Burden in Pulmonary Tuberculosis

BACKGROUND: Angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis are classical features of granuloma formation in pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB). In addition, the angiogenic factor—VEGF-A is a known biomarker for PTB. AIMS/METHODOLOGY: To examine the association of circulating angiogenic factors with PTB, we examined t...
