Fig. 3From: Patient-derived hepatitis C virus inhibits CD4+ but not CD8+ T lymphocyte proliferation in primary T cellsMeasurement of T cell proliferation after exposure to HCV or control normal human plasma. a Overall comparison of proliferation in total T cell population exposed to NHP 1–3 or CHC 1–3. The data represent the mean percentage CFSE-low cells measured in triplicate cultures at 4 time points throughout the culture period (also see Additional file 2: Figure S2 for details on identification of CFSE-low cells). b Graphical representation of lymphoid cell proliferation after exposure to HCV inocula or NHP. Proliferation represented by the mean percentage CFSE-low and SEM measured in triplicate at 1, 4, 7 and 10 d.p.iBack to article page
