We present a mathematical model of the activation and proliferation of a clone of T helper cells in response to a replicating antigen. This is able to show types of behaviour akin to persistent infection and to immune memory. This model is expanded to include the infection and destruction of activat

## Functional dichotomy of CD4+ T helper lymphocytes in asymptomatic human immunodeficiency virus infection The majority of asymptomatic, human immune deficiency virus seropositive (HIV+) individuals exhibit a defect in CD4+ T helper cell (Th) function that is selective for responses to recall ant
HCV encodes two glycoproteins, E1 and E2, that are believed to be exposed on the surface of virions. These molecules are likely to be involved in viral interactions with the host immune response and responsible for mediating viral entry into target cells. They are obvious major components for protot
