Hepatitis C Virus Induces Regulatory T Cells by Naturally Occurring Viral Variants to Suppress T Cell Responses
Figure 2
HCV subjects have an attenuated CD4+ T cell response to rNS3. HCV chronic subjects (black triangle) () (Table 2) had a significantly lower CD4 CFSElow response to rNS3 (1 μg/ml) in comparison to resolved subjects (gray circle) () (Table 2). There was no difference in the H3 (1 μg/ml) response between groups. The * as determined by Student’s t-test.
