Induction of heat shock protein 60 expression in human monocytic cell lines infected with Mycobacterium leprae.

Monocytic cell lines (HL-60 and THP-1) were infected with viable Mycobacterium leprae. Levels of human hsp60 were estimated by Western blot (immunoblot) assay and a sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.
