Characterization of the Specificity, Functionality, and Durability of Host T‐Cell Responses Against the Full‐Length Hepatitis E Virus
15 Sept 2016
Abstract excerpt
The interplay between host antiviral immunity and immunopathology during hepatitis E virus (HEV) infection determines important clinical outcomes. We characterized the specificity, functionality, and durability of host T‐cell responses against the full‐length HEV virus and assessed a novel “Quantiferon” assay for the rapid diagnosis of HEV infection. Eighty‐nine volunteers were recruited from Oxford, Truro (UK),...
