Prior analysis has characterized the clonal characteristics of effector CD8(+) T cells specific for the prominent influenza A virus nucleoprotein (NP) and acid polymerase (PA) peptides presented by H2D(b). Using a single-cell approach and determination of CDR3beta profiles, a limited, predominantly "public" repertoire was found for CD8(+)D(b)NP(366)(+)Vbeta8.3+ cells, whereas diverse and "priva...

INTRODUCTION Different serum levels of the IgG/IgE for Paracoccidioides brasiliensis high mass molecular (hMM) fraction (~366 kDa) in the acute and chronic forms of the disease have been reported. Considering the nonexistence of hMM fraction investigation involving clinical isolates of P. brasiliensis, the present study aimed to investigate the presence of the hMM fraction (~366 kDa) in cell fr...
