Analysis of the T-cell receptor beta-chain variable-region (Vbeta) repertoire in chronic human Chagas' disease.

Tissue antigens - 1 Jul 2002

Fernández-Mestre M T, Jaraquemada D, Bruno R E, Caro J, Layrisse Z

Abstract excerpt

Previous studies have shown that infection with the protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi (Chagas' disease) is associated with genetic components [human leukocyte antigen (HLA) genes and T-cell receptor (TCR) genes]. We studied the TCR Vbeta repertoire of peripheral blood lymphocytes of 23 unrelated serologically positive subjects using reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The patients, previously...
