Characterization of antigenic variants of hepatitis C virus in immune evasion

BACKGROUND: Antigenic variation is an effective way by which viruses evade host immune defense leading to viral persistence. Little is known about the inhibitory mechanisms of viral variants on CD4 T cell functions. RESULTS: Using sythetic peptides of a HLA-DRB1*15-restricted CD4 epitope derived fro...
