Conventional diagnostic tests based on purified protein derivative (PPD) do not achieve the required diagnostic sensitivity. Therefore, in this study, we have evaluated the immunogenic properties of Rv1168c, a member of the PPE family, in comparison with PPD, which is routinely used in the tuberculin test, and Hsp60 and ESAT-6, well-known immunodominant antigens of\n            <jats:italic>Mycobacterium tuberculosis<\/jats:italic>\n            . In a conventional enzyme immunoassay, the recombinant Rv1168c protein displayed stronger immunoreactivity against the sera obtained from patients with clinically active TB than did PPD, Hsp60, or ESAT-6 and could distinguish TB patients from\n            <jats:italic>Mycobacterium bovis<\/jats:italic>\n            BCG-vaccinated controls. Interestingly, Rv1168c antigen permits diagnosis of smear-negative pulmonary TB as well as extrapulmonary TB cases, which are often difficult to diagnose by conventional tests. The immunodominant nature of Rv1168c makes it a promising candidate to use in serodiagnosis of TB. In addition, our studies also show that Rv1168c is a potent T-cell antigen which elicits a strong gamma interferon response in sensitized peripheral blood mononuclear cells obtained from TB patients.\n          <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1128\/cvi.00485-07","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2008,4,10]],"date-time":"2008-04-10T01:41:50Z","timestamp":1207791710000},"page":"974-980","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1128\/asmj-crossmark-policy-page","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":43,"title":["Association of Strong Immune Responses to PPE Protein Rv1168c with Active Tuberculosis"],"prefix":"10.1128","volume":"15","author":[{"given":"Nooruddin","family":"Khan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre For DNA Fingerprinting and Diagnostics, ECIL Road, Hyderabad, India"},{"name":"Mahavir Hospital and Research Centre, Hyderabad, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kaiser","family":"Alam","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre For DNA Fingerprinting and Diagnostics, ECIL Road, Hyderabad, India"},{"name":"Mahavir Hospital and Research Centre, Hyderabad, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Shiny","family":"Nair","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre For DNA Fingerprinting and Diagnostics, ECIL Road, Hyderabad, India"},{"name":"Mahavir Hospital and Research Centre, Hyderabad, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Vijaya Lakshmi","family":"Valluri","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre For DNA Fingerprinting and Diagnostics, ECIL Road, Hyderabad, India"},{"name":"Mahavir Hospital and Research Centre, Hyderabad, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kolluri J.
