Immune Response Characterization in PBMCs: HCV Core and T Cell Activation Study
This study evaluates the immune response of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) in the context of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. It utilizes specific fluorescent markers for HCV core protein, CD4, and CD8 T cell subsets to measure cell counts and activation status. The analysis reveals significant activation and distribution patterns, with percentages noted for various immune responses. Supplementary figures provide detailed insights into the experimental setup and findings, highlighting the complexity of T cell interactions in response to HCV.
