Lesions of primary and secondary syphilis contain activated cytolytic T cells.

Abstract

This study demonstrates that CD8+ cytotoxic lymphocytes (CTL) are found in both primary and secondary syphilis lesions. CD8+ T cells were detected by immunohistology, and mRNAs for granzyme B and perforin were detected by reverse transcription and PCR, suggesting that CD8+ cytotoxic lymphocytes are activated.
