Inhibition of macrophage invasion by monoclonal antibodies specific to Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis promastigotes and characterisation of their antigens

, 2001
Monoclonal antibodies that specifically recognise Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis promastigotes were produced and termed SST-2, SST-3 and SST-4. SST-2 recognises a conformational epitope present in a 24-28 kDa doublet and in a 72 kDa component as ...
