The effect of repeated leishmanin skin testing on the immune responses to Leishmania antigen in healthy volunteers.

Abstract

The leishmanin skin test (LST) is used in immunogenicity studies. The effect of multiple LSTs on immune responses was assessed. None of the volunteers converted to LST positive. IFN-gamma and IL-10 levels remained unchanged. Repetition of LST does not modulate the in vivo or in vitro immune responses to Leishmania antigen.
