Platelets correlate with false negative T-SPOT.TB results by inhibiting interferon-γ production in T cells via degranulation

BACKGROUND: T-SPOT.TB (T-SPOT) is widely used for the detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection by detecting interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) release in T lymphocytes. This assay is performed on peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) separated by Ficoll density gradient centrifugation, which oft...
