Abstract


Extraction, fraciionation :md elution of adlut S, numosni worm surfnce antigens '

revealed three well-defined bands in the area 42. The SMI' molecules of 45,42 and

40 KUa clicitC!i lymphoproliferation and/or lFN-y, IL-4 or IL-10 production from PBMC of 0 -• lOll% of donors suggesting that these molecules elicit cell-mediated immunity. While all donors showed detectable humoral responses to SMP by
ELISA, rccoguition of Area 42 antigens by Western blotting was restricted to only

2/22 donors iuriicating that these antigens do not clicitstrong humoral immunity.
