Peptides Derived from Mycobacterium leprae ML1601c Discriminate between Leprosy Patients and Healthy Endemic Controls

Figure 2

IFN-γ production by PBMC induced by ML1601c peptides (see Table 1) in Brazilian MB ( 𝑛 = 1 1 ), PB ( 𝑛 = 1 1 ), HHC ( 𝑛 = 1 9 ), TB ( 𝑛 = 8 ), and EC ( 𝑛 = 1 7 ) as well as Dutch NEC ( 𝑛 = 2 1 ). Values were corrected for background values. All background values were typically <20 pg/mL. Horizontal bars indicate median responses.
