Results of lymphocyte proliferation assays in response to individual peptides contained in pools 2, 5 and 8 of peptides corresponding to HEV ORF2 protein among patients with acute hepatitis E. The bars indicate stimulation indices in the presence of individual 20-mer peptides (10 μg/mL). Panel A indicates stimulation indices with peptides 10 to 18 in four patients, panel B those with peptides 37 to 45 in six patients with acute hepatitis E and panel C those with peptides 64 to 72 in two patients with acute hepatitis E. The horizontal line indicates the cut-off of 2.0, above which stimulation indices were considered as significant.
