“…In this study, many of the inflammatory cytokines that would be expected as part of an innate response to Mtb such as Il-6, IL-1α and Il-1β and TNF-α, and were found in the vitreous, and that in primed vitreous the concentrations were generally higher than in unprimed vitreous ( Paik et al, 2020 ; Cooper et al, 2011 ). In human eyes with presumed TB associated uveitis, and chronic idiopathic uveitis, many of the same cytokines that were identified in this study including IP-10, IL-12, VEGF, MCP-1, MIP-1α, and MIP-1β have been identified ( Errera et al, 2022 ; Curnow et al, 2005 ; El-Asrar et al, 2011 ; Xu et al, 2020 ; Nagata et al, 2012 ; Chen et al, 2015 ; Zhao et al, 2015 ; Fukunaga et al, 2020 ).…”
