Repurposing QuantiFERON for Detection of Neutralizing Interferon-γ Autoantibodies in Patients With Nontuberculous Mycobacterial Infections
2017
: Nontuberculous mycobacterial infections due to autoantibodies targeting interferon-γ are an emerging medical problem. However, case finding is hampered due to highly complex diagnostic procedures not available in routine laboratories. We show that QuantiFERON assays can be exploited as a simple screening tool that may facilitate adequate and timely treatment.
