Repartition of alveolar macrophages of normal subjects (hatched bars, n = 10) and patients with TB (solid bars, n = 12) in the different Percoll gradient fractions: 1, <1.030 g/ml; 2, to g/ml; 3, to g/ml; 4, to g/ml; .5, >1.070 g/ml. Values are means ±SEM. Asterisk = p<0.05.

3. FIGURE 2
Repartition of alveolar macrophages in smokers and nonsmokers either in patients with TB or in normal subjects in the different Percoli gradient fractions: 1, <1.030 g/ml; 2, to g/ml; 3, to g/ml; 4, to g/ml; 5, >1.070 g/ml. Values are means ± SEM. Asterisk = p<0.05; number sign = p<0.05 compared with corresponding smoker or nonsmoker subgroups in normal subjects, respectively.
