Protective Effect of Human Leukocyte Antigen B27 in Hepatitis C Virus Infection Requires the Presence of A Genotype-Specific Immunodominant Cd8+ T-Cell Epitope

9 Sept 2009

Abstract excerpt

UNLABELLED: Human leukocyte antigen B27 (HLA-B27) is associated with protection in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. This protective role is linked to single immunodominant HLA-B27-restricted CD8+ T-cell epitopes in both infections. In order to define the relative contribution of a specific HLA-B27-restricted epitope to the natural course of HCV infection, we compared the...
