| geographical variation in serological responses to recombinant pneumocystis jirovecii major surface glycoprotein antigens. | the use of recombinant fragments of the major surface glycoprotein (msg) of pneumocystis jirovecii has proven useful for studying serological immune responses of blood donors and human immunodeficiency virus (hiv)-positive (hiv(+)) patients. here, we have used elisa to measure antibody titres to msg fragments (msga, msgb, msgc1, msgc3, msgc8 and msgc9) in sera isolated in the usa (n=200) and spain (n=326), to determine whether geographical location affects serological responses to these antigens ... | 2009 | 19416292 |
