Abstract
To detect TB specific T cell responses by using the recombinant ESAT-6 protein as stimulus in Chinese HIV infected patients. ELISPOT-IFN-gamma assay by using the recombinant ESAT-6 protein as stimulus to detect specific T cell responses in HIV+ patients with or without clinical manifestation of TB diseases. Recombinant ESAT-6 protein specific T cell responses show significant high frequencies in both of TB patients with or without HIV infection than that in the healthy control and HIV+ group without clinical TB diseases.
