Diversity of the CD8+T-Cell Response to Herpes Simplex Virus Type 2 Proteins among Persons with Genital Herpes
12 May 2006
Abstract excerpt
Cytolytic T cells play a major role in controlling herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) infections in humans. In an effort to more thoroughly evaluate the response to HSV-2 directly, ex vivo, we developed an enzyme-linked immunospot (ELISPOT) assay that utilized pools of overlapping synthetic peptides presented by autologous dendritic cells to purified CD8(+) T cells. Donor response rates to individual open...
