Chronic viral hepatitis depends on the inability of the T-cell immune response to eradicate antigen. In the case of recombinant Adeno-Associated-Virus, used for therapeutic gene transfer, conflicting reports describe tolerance induction to different transgene products while other studies have shown conventional cytotoxic CD8 T cell responses with a rapid loss of transgene expression.

Introduction: Cellular characteristics of induced sputum (IS) are not investigated in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients.
Objectives: This pilot study, conducted on 17 expectorating CF adolescents, compared sputa obtained the same day, in a stable period, by autogenic drainage (expectorating sputum, ES) and 4 h later after inhaling hypertonic saline (IS).
Results: No difference was noted concerning weight, volume, and percentage of dead cells between the two collection methods.
