Mimicking B and T cell epitopes between Mycobacterium leprae and host as predictive biomarkers in type 1 reaction in leprosy

Vinay Kumar Pathak et al.

Summary: The study found that mimicking epitopes between Mycobacterium leprae and host components play a key role in inducing autoimmune response in leprosy, and may serve as biomarkers to predict inflammatory episodes. Antibodies against 8 linear B cell epitopes were significantly higher in Type 1 reaction leprosy patients compared to Non-reaction patients, while 5 linear T cell epitopes were associated with lymphocyte proliferation in the Type 1 reaction group.
