![Figure 9. Core-specific CD4+ T-cell clone stimulation by imDCs pulsed with HCV-LPs. Monocyte-derived imDCs were pulsed with corresponding concentrations of recombinant core protein (rCore), HCV-LPs (1-100 μg/mL; equivalent to approximately 0.1-10 μg HCV-LP core/mL), and insect cell control preparations (GUS Ctrl). DCs were then incubated with core-specific CD4+ T cells for 3 days and T-cell proliferation was measured by [3H]thymidine incorporation. Results are shown as counts per minute (cpm; mean ± SD of a representative experiment performed in triplicate).](https://ash.silverchair-cdn.com/ash/content_public/journal/blood/105/9/10.1182_blood-2004-05-1952/6/zh80090577560009.jpeg?Expires=1723350385&Signature=RPXwaN7aGhZGEaePXWNLQClonve4MeRoRkQaUuxzVzuBSatlJWwSKdmBgPJnwe3m7XFUs~9UEPHAyKS7gV9kuhA-f35-ax4fyLW-YxYJzeBqjF9mK7qZ8eL~zdSN-fBwLp7~SV1WYTU3nradNjNzNiggqsjl5p8-zvH7adV0klDR6Ef~lB730LEhXbGNHqpbpdQQ-7RIDZ3ZFdRCiXdFQ9fuBAQkRB8DV6ZjdSnaf8tnS2wF2UbLhORgMCZHIGGe95j0MNcwPpdSnbhWK2E6iEGXl00QU7CQy9DxMwzKtzxn5MSylULGHrt3XkbG~5X7a7EABAPeuDGbGlIO2Ccq6Q__&Key-Pair-Id=APKAIE5G5CRDK6RD3PGA)
