Antigens recognized by T cells are expressed as peptides bound to major histocompatibility
complex (MHC) molecules. Microcapillary high-performance liquid chromatography-…

Of several thousand peptides presented by the major histocompatibility molecule HLA-A2.1,
at least nine are recognized by melanoma-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs). Tandem …

Between 650 and 2000 different peptides are associated with the major histocompatibility
complex class II molecule IA d . Sequences for nine of these were obtained by a combination …

Although 20%‐40% of persons with acute hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection demonstrate
spontaneous clearance, the time course and factors associated with clearance remain poorly …

Background Neither previous hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection nor vaccination with HCV-derived
antigens protects against reinfection. However, HCV infection and vaccination in …

BACKGROUND & AIMS: We followed patients with ongoing hepatitis C virus (HCV) exposure
following control of an initial HCV infection to determine whether primary control conferred …

Purpose: Listeria monocytogenes (Lm)-based vaccines stimulate both innate and adaptive
immunity. ANZ-100 is a live-attenuated Lm strain (Lm ΔactA/ΔinlB). Uptake by phagocytes in …

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection frequently persists despite substantial virus-specific cellular
immune responses. To determine if immunologically driven sequence variation occurs with …

Background & Aims: Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1 infection has been associated
with enhanced microbial translocation, and microbial translocation is a mechanism through …

Background . More than two-thirds of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infections in Western countries
are caused by injection drug use, but prospective clinical data regarding the most common …
