Figure 1

Direct ex vivo peripheral blood frequency of HCV specific CD8+ T cells by ex vivo pentamer staining in patient 1. Four different time points at week 2, 4, 164 and 251 after onset of acute disease are given. Pentamers with specifity for KLSGLGINAV, KLSGLGINAI, KLSGLGLNAV and KLLGLGINAV were used. The percentages of NS3 1406 specific CD8+ T cells/CD8+ T cell total are given. The percentages of CD38+ specific CD8+ T cells/NS3 1406 specific CD8+ T cells are given in brackets.
