Virus-specific production of IFN-gamma and IL-17 by CD4+ T cells from patients infected with West Nile virus (128.18)
Abstract
Abstract The mechanisms that underlie the pathology of neuroinvasive West Nile virus (WNV) remain unknown. The goal of this study was to characterize the CD4+ T cell response to WNV in individuals with neuroinvasive and non-neuroinvasive symptoms. WNV-infected subjects were screened for CD4+ T cell reactivity with peptide pools derived from a library spanning the WNV polyprotein. Virus-specific CD4+ T cells were directed primarily against E, …
