Resumen

Single-cell and spatial transcriptomics of human TB lung tissues from individuals in South Africa revealed that MMP1+CXCL5+ fibroblasts and SPP1+ macrophages are linked to TB disease and TB lung granuloma, uncovering targetable cellular cross talk underlying TB immunopathology and potential avenues for host-directed therapies.
