Distinct Human T Cell Repertoires Mediate Immediate and Delayed-Type Hypersensitivity to the Trichophyton Antigen, Tri r 2

The 29-kDa subtilase homologue, Tri r 2, derived from the dermatophyte fungus Trichophyton rubrum, exhibits unique immunologic characteristics in its ability to elicit immediate (IH) and delayed-type (DTH) hypersensitivity skin tests in different individuals. Thus, Tri r 2 provides a model for compa...
