⺠Human classical and inflammatory monocytes have clear differences in their fatty acid profiles. ⺠TB patients have a higher number of inflammatory monocytes. ⺠The classical monocytes display a higher saturation levels. ⺠Lower saturation index correlated with susceptibility to membrane damage. ⺠Differentiation into macrophages also changes the fatty acid profile.
