The humoral immune response to HSV-1 and HSV-2 proteins was examined in patients with primary first-episode genital herpes. Ten patients had culture-proven HSV-1 infections, 37 had HSV-2 infections, and all were seronegative to HSV proteins before developing their infections. Development of serum an

p53 aberrations are frequent in colorectal carcinogenesis (40-70%). Because p53 gene mutations typically result in increased p53 protein concentration in tumor cells, this cellular protein might become immunogenic during tumor development. To test this hypothesis, serum p53 antibodies were quantitat
To investigate the involvement of T-cell response against hepatitis C virus (HCV) antigens in viral clearance after interferon therapy, we measured interleukin-2 (IL-2) production by peripheral mononuclear cells in response to HCV core in patients with chronic hepatitis C. In a cohort of 43 patients
## Abstract __Mycobacterium tuberculosis__ bacilli are seldom demonstrated in tuberculous pleural effusion (TPE) by conventional bacteriological methods. In this study, an indirect enzymeβlinked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed to detect IgG against four mycobacterial recombinant antigens
Antibody responses to the hepatitis C virus (HCV) envelope proteins E l and E2 were analyzed using two original assays in sera from 86 patients in different stages of disease. A Western blot assay and an immunofluorescence assay (IFA) were developed using envelope proteins produced, respectively, in
