Figure 6. Mycobacterium-specific IFNγ secretion post-infection.

Figure 6

Both PPD and ESAT6-CFP10 fusion protein, but not Ag85A, induce relatively high levels of IFNγ from in vitro stimulated fresh PBMC after infectious challenge with M. tuberculosis. Treatment group means (+standard errors) are plotted in time for PPD (A), Ag85A (C) and ESAT6/CFP10 fusion protein (E), and as individual responses (with group medians) at the peak of the mean response as indicated (B, D and F, respectively). For legends of colouring and symbols see legend to Figure 2.
