Stress-induced proteins and the immune response to leprosy
1MRC Tuberculosis and Related Infections Unit, Hammersmith Hospital, London, UK.
Abstract:
Mycobacterial antigens which play a major role in humoral and cell-mediated immune recognition are related to proteins which are induced in response to stress stimuli. The potential involvement of stress-induced proteins in infectious disease and in autoimmune responses is discussed.
