EVALUATION OF SPECIFIC ANTIGENS AT THE EARLY STAGE OF TUBERCULOUS INFECTION IN CHILDREN
More specific antigens are still being searched for in order to increase informativeness of techniques for early diagnostics of tuberculous infection. Aimed at the investigation of proteins of tuberculous mycobacteria (PPD-L, ESAT 6, 85, hybrid of ЕSAT 6

Killing of Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus-infected fibroblasts during latent infection by activated natural killer cells. [PDF]
Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) establishes life-long infection by evading clearance by the host immune system. In de novo infection and lytic replication, KSHV escapes cytotoxic T cells and NK cells through downregulation of MHC class-I ...

Increased frequency of CD4+CD25+FoxP3+ circulating regulatory T cells (Treg) in tuberculous patients
Background: CD4+CD25+FoxP3+ circulating regulatory T cells (Treg) play a fundamental role in the control of immune responses by down-regulating the function of effector CD4+ or CD8+ T cells.
