Loss of <scp>CXCR5</scp> expression and monocyte epithelial–mesenchymal transition are blood‐borne signatures of sterile granulomatous diseases
We have identified both shared and specific phenotypes in TU and sarcoidosis. Marked CXCR5 down-regulation occurs in active TU and could explain the unique absence of lymphadenopathy. Both TU and sarcoidosis are characterised by inflammatory monocyte phenotypes and transcriptional signatures of EMT.
