Detection of IgE Antibody Specific to a Hepatitis C Virus-Derived Peptide Being Recognized by Cellular Immunity in Patients with HCV Infection

The determination of immunogenic peptides of hepatitis C virus (HCV) is pivotal for vaccine development. We previously reported that the majority of patients infected with HCV have significant levels of IgG specific to an HCV-derived peptide at positions 35-44 of core protein (C35-44), a major epito...
