Background

Currently, there are serious limitations in the direct diagnosis of active tuberculosis (ATB). We evaluated the levels of the IL-18/IL-37/IP-10 signalling complex proteins in Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M.tb)-specific antigen-stimulated QuantiFERON® Gold In-Tube (QFT) cultures and in serum samples from ATB patients, healthy individuals with latent M.tb infection (LTBI) and healthy controls (HC) to examine whether combined analyses of these proteins were useful in the differentiation of M.tb states.

Methods

The concentrations of IL-18, IL-18BP, IFN-γ, IL-37 and IP-10 in the serum and QFT supernatants were measured using specific enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits. Free IL-18 levels were calculated using the law of mass action.

Results

Increased concentrations of total and free IL-18, IL-18BP, IFN-γ and IP-10 in the sera of ATB patients were detected. These increases were not counterbalanced by the overproduction of IL-37. Complex co-expression of serum IL-18BP and IL-37, IP-10 and IFN-γ was identified as the highest discriminative biomarker set for the diagnosis of ATB.

Conclusions

Our results suggest that the IL-18 signalling complex might be exploited by M. tuberculosis to expand the clinical manifestations of pulmonary TB. Therefore, direct analysis of the serum components of the IL-18/IL-37 signalling complex and IP-10 may be applicable in designing novel diagnostic tests for ATB.
