T cell subsets responsible for clearance of Sendai virus from mouse lungs determined by adoptive transfer of immune spleen cell fractions to infected nude mice. T cells with antiviral activity developed in spleens by 7 days after intranasal infection. Spleen cell fractions depleted of Lyt-2+, Lyt-1+, or L3T4+ cells showed antiviral activity in vivo, although the degree of the activity was lower than that of control whole spleen cells. The antiviral activity of the Lyt-2+ cell-depleted fraction was consistently higher than that of L3T4+ (Lyt-1+)-depleted cells. In vitro cytotoxic activity against Sendai virus-associated, syngeneic lipopolysaccharide-blast cells was detected in stimulated cells from intraperitoneally immunized mice but was lost after depletion of Lyt-2+ cells. Multiple injection of anti-Sendai virus antibody into infected nude mice had no effect on lung virus titer. These results indicate that L3T4+ (Lyt-1+) and Lyt-2+ subsets are cooperatively responsible for efficient clearance of Sendai virus from the mouse lung. 相似文献

In BALB/c mice, acute retinal necrosis occurs in the uninoculated eye 8 to 10 days following uniocular anterior chamber inoculation of the KOS strain of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1). Retinitis in the uninjected eye can be prevented if HSV-1-specific immune effector cells that have been restimulated with virus in vitro are administered intravenously within 1 day of anterior chamber inoculation of virus. We explored further the mechanism of protection afforded by these activated immune effector cells. The results of our studies revealed that optimal protection from retinitis required in vitro restimulation, since infusion of 50 x 10(6) HSV-1-primed but nonrestimulated cells could not protect as well as 10 x 10(6) activated cells. Analysis of both restimulated and nonrestimulated cells showed that only in vitro-restimulated cells were cytotoxic to HSV-1-infected syngeneic target cells. From these studies, we concluded that the ability to kill virus-infected target cells contributed to optimal protection achieved by intravenous administration of activated immune effector cells. Furthermore, T-cell subset depletion of activated immune effector cells demonstrated that both L3T4+ and Lyt-2+ T cells in the transfer inoculum contributed to protection. Additional studies revealed that although the transferred immune effector cells reached the injected eye within 24 h, virus replication in the injected eye was not affected. In the uninjected eye, virus titers were low, consistent with protection of this eye from retinitis. Taken together, the virus recovery results suggest that the interaction of virus with intravenously administered HSV-1-specific immune effector cells which limits virus spread and/or replication of virus probably occurred within the central nervous system and prevented the second wave of virus from entering the uninoculated eye. 相似文献

The fate of interleukin-2 after in vivo administration 总被引:18,自引:0,他引:18
Interleukin 2 (IL 2) activity was measured in the serum of mice, using a bioassay, following various methods of IL 2 administration. IL 2 has a serum half-life of 3.7 min +/- 0.8 min (mean +/- SD) in mice after i.v. injection, and a serum IL 2 titer of 2 units/ml could be sustained for less than 30 min after injection of highly concentrated IL 2 solutions. Intraperitoneal (i.p.) and subcutaneous (s.c.) injection of similar amounts of IL 2 prolonged the duration of serum IL 2 activity at greater than 2 units/ml for 2 and 6 hr, respectively. Administration of IL 2 in a gelatin base was capable of sustaining serum IL 2 levels at greater than 2 units/ml for up to 16 hr. The reason for the short in vivo half-life of i.v. injected IL 2 was studied. No inhibitors of IL 2 could be detected in our cell growth assay of IL 2 activity. Exposure of IL 2 to mouse blood or serum had no impact on IL 2 titers. To evaluate the possibility that IL 2 was binding to lymphoid cells in vivo, the fate of IL 2 was studied in nude mice, in mice 4 days after 1000 rads total body irradiation, and in splenectomized mice. The serum half-life in these modified mice was identical to that in normal mice. The kidney appeared to be the main site of IL 2 clearance. The rates of IL 2 disappearance in mice rose from a control T 1/2 of 2.5 to 3.5 min in sham-operated animals to up to 84 min in mice with ligated renal pedicles. IL 2 was not excreted in an active form in the urine and ureteral ligation had only a small effect on the serum half-life of IL 2, implying probable renal tubular catabolism of filtered IL 2. 相似文献

The successful adoptive immunotherapy of the syngeneic Friend virus-induced murine leukemia FBL-3 was mediated by a proliferative MHC-restricted, tumor-specific CTL clone in combination with recombinant human IL 2. This clone was previously shown to express the L3T4-, Lyt-1+, Lyt-2+ surface phenotype. Activation of the clone for 48 hr in vitro with irradiated tumor cells induced the expression of IL 2 receptors and markedly increased clonal proliferation in response to recombinant IL 2. Intravenous injection of 2 X 10(7) 48 hr in vitro-activated cloned cells, followed by 6 days of systemic (i.p.) administration of IL 2 resulted in the complete regression of tumors and the cure of 50% of the treated mice. IL 2 alone had no effect on tumor growth, whereas the injection of nonactivated (resting) clone plus IL 2 or activated clone without IL 2 had small but insignificant effects on tumor growth and survival. These results indicated that the in vivo effector functions of cloned T cells may be markedly enhanced by the concurrent systemic administration of recombinant IL 2 and by the induction of optimal IL 2 receptor expression on the cloned T cells at the time of cell administration. 相似文献

The in vivo activity of murine cytolytic T lymphocyte-containing effector cell populations generated in vitro was studied in a tumor allograft model system by monitoring the elimination of 131I-IUdR-labeled tumor cells with whole-body counting techniques. Mice were irradiated sublethally and 16 hr later 131I-labeled tumor cells were injected either subcutaneously or i.p. Simultaneously, graded doses of various effector cell populations were injected i.v. and the mice were counted daily to assess the potential elimination of the radiolabeled tumor cells. Thus, allogeneic 2 degrees mixed leukocyte culture cells were observed to eliminate allogeneic but not syngeneic tumor cells in a dose-dependent manner, with as few as 0.2 x 10(6) effector cells causing significant destruction of 2 x 10(6) allogeneic tumor cells. The protective effect of the mixed leukocyte culture cells was considerably reduced when Lyt-2+-bearing lymphocytes were eliminated by treatment with monoclonal antibody plus complement. In additional experiments, Lyt-2+ lymphocytes positively selected by enrichment on antibody-coated petri dishes gave efficient protection, in the absence of Lyt-2- cells. Surprisingly, when several different cloned, specific, long-term allogeneic cytolytic T cells lines were injected either i.p. of i.v., tumor cell destruction was observed only after i.p. injection. 相似文献

Role of L3T4 antigen in the activation of various functions of Lyt-1+2- T cells against vaccinia virus 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The present study defines assay systems for vaccinia virus-reactive Lyt-1+2- T cells mediating various functions and investigates the positivity of L3T4 antigen on these Lyt-1+2- T cells as well as the role of L3T4 antigen in the activation of these T cells with respect to their functions. C3H/He mice were immunized against vaccinia virus by inoculating viable virus intraperitoneally (i.p.). Anti-vaccinia virus reactivity in lymphoid cells from these immunized mice was assessed by proliferative response, helper T cell activities involved in cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) and B cell (antibody) responses, delayed type-hypersensitivity (DTH) response, and production of lymphokines such as interleukin 2 (IL2) and macrophage-activating factor (MAF). The results demonstrate that all of the above anti-vaccinia virus responses were mediated by Lyt-1+2- T cells and that these Lyt-1+2- T cells expressed L3T4 antigens on their cell surfaces. Moreover, such anti-vaccinia Lyt-1+2- T cell responses were inhibited in the presence of anti-L3T4 antigen antibody. These results indicate that there is a reciprocal relationship between Lyt-2 and L3T4 markers, and that L3T4 antigen is closely related to the activation of various functions of anti-vaccinia virus Lyt-1+2- T cells. 相似文献

Mice given herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) (Miyama +GC strain) intragastrically via a stainless-steel cannula were rendered immune to subsequent lethal intraperitoneal (i.p.) challenge with HSV-1. The orally administered HSV-1 was completely inactivated in the stomach within a few minutes of inoculation. However, systemic immunity was established 14 days after oral inoculation with the virus and retained for up to 6 months. The mechanisms of establishing systemic immunity were investigated by means of adoptive transfer comparisons. When splenic cells from HSV-1-immunized mice were transplanted into nonimmunized mice, all of the recipient mice survived after a lethal i.p. challenge with the virus. Immunity was not established in antithymocyte serum-treated mice or by transfer of serum from immunized to nonimmunized mice. In addition, all HSV-1-immunized mice died after lethal challenge with HSV-2 and influenza virus A. These findings suggest that the immunity was virus specific, with T lymphocytes playing a major role in its establishment. The present study therefore supports the possibility of oral immunization with live HSV-1 as a vaccine. 相似文献

Cooperation between humoral factor(s) and Lyt-2+ T cells in effective clearance of Sendai virus from infected mouse lungs 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The mechanism of cooperation between the L3T4+ and Lyt-2+ T cell subsets in effective clearance of Sendai virus from infected mouse lungs was studied by adoptive cell transfer using nude mice. Simultaneous transfer of a long-term-cultured Sendai virus-specific L3T4+ T cell line with L3T4+ cell-depleted immune spleen cell (L3T4-) fraction to infected nude mice could result in viral clearance, although single injection with either of these cells was not effective. Instead of the L3T4+ T cells, culture supernatants of the L3T4- T cell line or concanavalin A-stimulated mouse spleen cells and mouse serum immunized with the virus were also active in the cooperative viral clearance with L3T4- fraction. The role of the Sendai virus-sensitized L3T4- cell fraction in cooperative viral clearance with humoral factors could be replaced by neither T cell-deprived immune spleen cell fraction nor normal spleen cells. The 1,500 units of recombinant mouse interleukin 2 (IL-2), which was more than 12 times the IL-2 activity present in the supernatants of the T cell line or concanavalin A-stimulated spleen cells, failed to clear the virus in combination with the L3T4- fraction. Monoclonal antibodies to Sendai or mouse hepatitis viruses were also effective in the cooperative antiviral activity. IL-2 activity was not detected in these monoclonal antibodies and the mouse immune serum. Single injection of any humoral factors failed to clear the virus. These results indicate that Sendai virus-sensitized Lyt-2+ subset of T cells acts cooperatively with humoral factor(s) other than IL-2 or Sendai virus-specific antibody present in supernatants of the T cell line, of concanavalin A-stimulated spleen cells or hybridomas, and in mouse serum immunized with the virus. 相似文献

The adoptive transfer of specifically sensitized T lymphocytes can effectively mediate the regression of established local and metastatic tumors. Previous experiments using the weakly immunogenic MCA 105 sarcoma indicated that cellular interactions between transferred L3T4+ helper and Lyt-2+ cytotoxic immune T cells were necessary for mediating tumor regression. In this study, the kinetics of T-T cell interactions were analyzed by in vivo depletion of T cell subsets with mAb. The anti-tumor efficacy of transferred immune cells was abrogated by in vivo administration of either L3T4 or Lyt-2 mAb on the day of cellular therapy. However, if mAb were given 3 days after the transfer of immune cells, depletion of Lyt-2+ but not L3T4+ cells abrogated anti-tumor efficacy. T cell depletion on day 6 after transfer of immune cells had no adverse effect on tumor regression, indicating the period required for T cell reactivity in vivo. Furthermore, depletion of Ia+ cells by in vivo mAb treatment abrogated the anti-tumor efficacy of immune cells. It is thus hypothesized that there are two distinct but sequential phases of in vivo T cell interactions leading to the regression of established tumors after adoptive immunotherapy. An initial "helper/inducer" phase apparently requires the interaction of L3T4+ immune cells and the tumor Ag involving Ia+ cells. The inducement of L3T4+ cell activation is to provide helper function via the secretion of IL-2. The second phase designated as an "effector phase" involves differentiation of immune Lyt-2+ cells under the influence of IL-2 secreted during the helper/inducer phase for generation of mature Lyt-2+ effector cells. To further support the hypothesis of a two-phase process we have examined the phenotype and kinetics of tumor regression mediated by effector cells generated by secondary in vitro sensitization (IVS). Although the IVS cells were generated from fresh MCA 105 immune spleen cells, their anti-tumor efficacy was mediated solely by Lyt-2+ lymphocytes. Kinetic studies revealed that the in vivo requirement of IVS Lyt-2+ effector cells to mediate tumor regression was less than 3 days, and the anti-tumor reactivity of these cells was not affected by in vivo depletion of Ia+ cells. Thus, the IVS reaction is likely representative of the in vivo counterpart of the helper/inducer phase leading to the generation of mature Lyt-2+ immune effector cells. Tumor regression after transfer of Lyt-2+ cells generated in IVS therefore required a relatively shorter period of time than that required after the transfer of fresh noncultured MCA 105 immune spleen cells. 相似文献

Depo-Provera (Depo) is a long-acting progestational formulation that is a popular form of contraception for women. In animal models of sexually transmitted diseases, it is used to facilitate infection. Here we report that treatment with Depo, in a mouse model of genital herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2), altered immune responses depending on the length of time that animals were exposed to Depo prior to immunization. Mice immunized intravaginally (i.vag.) with an attenuated strain (TK(-)) of HSV-2 following longer (15 days) exposure to Depo (Depo 15 group) failed to show protection when challenged with wild-type HSV-2. In contrast, mice that were immunized shortly after Depo treatment (5 days; Depo 5 group) were fully protected and showed no genital pathology after HSV-2 challenge. High viral titers were detected in the vaginal washes of the Depo 15 group up to 6 days postchallenge. In contrast, no viral shedding was observed beyond day 3 postchallenge in the Depo 5 group. Following i.vag. TK(-) immunization, high levels of gamma interferon (IFN-gamma) were detected locally in vaginal washes of the Depo 5 group but not the Depo 15 group. After HSV-2 challenge, an early peak of IFN-gamma in the Depo 5 group coincided with clearance of the virus. In Depo 15 animals IFN-gamma was present throughout the 6 days postinfection. HSV-2-specific T-cell cytokine responses measured in the lymph node cells of Depo 5 TK(-)-immunized mice indicated a significantly higher Th1 response than that of Depo 15 TK(-)-immunized mice. The protection after HSV-2 challenge in the Depo 5 group correlated with increased local HSV-2 glycoprotein B (gB)-specific immunoglobulin G (IgG) and IgA responses seen in the vaginal secretions. The Depo 15 group had poor gB-specific antibody responses in the genital tract after HSV-2 challenge. These results indicate that longer exposure to Depo leads to poor innate and adaptive immune responses to HSV-2 that fail to protect mice from subsequent genital challenges. 相似文献

Adult ICR/Slc or BALB/c mice developed hydrocephalus when attenuated herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) (strain Ska) was injected intracerebrally 2 to 4 weeks earlier and then after mice were challenged with the same virus or virulent HSV-1. Initial inoculation of the Ska strain elicited acute meningitis and ependymitis with transient mild hydrocephalus. Viral antigen was seen in the meninges and subependymal areas, and the virus was titrated during the acute phase of infection. After the second virus inoculation, more prominent inflammation was evoked in the same area, and the animals developed hydrocephalus, although viral antigen and infectious virus were hardly detected. When the mice were immunosuppressed with cyclophosphamide, they ceased to develop hydrocephalus. BALB/c nude mice did not show the same pathology, even though they were treated in the same way. When irradiated mice, which had been infected with the Ska strain intracerebrally 2 weeks earlier, received syngeneic immune spleen cells, they developed hydrocephalus. The T-cell nature of the effector cells was confirmed by the elimination of the pathology after treatment of the donor cells with anti-Thy-1.2 plus complement. No hydrocephalic mice were observed after treatment of the donor cells with anti-Lyt-1.2 plus complement, which gave further evidence of the T-cell nature of the effector cells as the Lyt-1+.2+ antigen-bearing subsets. Intervals between priming and challenge virus inoculation could be more than 18 months. The presence of purified HSV-1 envelope protein was feasible for the development of the hydrocephalic animals. 相似文献

Large numbers of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) infiltrated the murine vaginal mucosa within 24 h after intravaginal inoculation with an attenuated strain of herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2). The role of these cells in resolution of a primary genital infection and in protection of HSV-immune animals against challenge with a fully virulent HSV-2 strain was investigated. Depletion of greater than 95% of the PMNs at the vaginal mucosal surface prior to intravaginal inoculation with an attenuated HSV-2 strain resulted in significantly higher virus titers on days 3 to 7 but only slightly delayed resolution of the primary genital infection. These results suggest that neutrophils helped control the infection but that other immune mechanisms ultimately cleared the virus. Interestingly, depletion of PMNs from HSV-immune mice prior to challenge with a fully virulent HSV-2 strain resulted in a rise in virus titers to levels comparable to those of nonimmune mice and a more pronounced diminution of virus clearance from the vaginal mucosa despite the presence of HSV-specific B and T cells. Levels of gamma interferon (IFN-gamma) and HSV-specific antibody were comparable in neutrophil-depleted and control-treated immune mice following HSV-2 challenge, suggesting that RB6-8C5 treatment did not impair T- and B-cell function. Therefore, these results suggest that neutrophils play a role in limiting and clearing HSV-2 vaginal infections and that they are, in association with HSV-specific B and T cells, an important component in immune protection of the vaginal mucosa. 相似文献

Human natural killer cells limit replication of herpes simplex virus type 1 in vitro 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11

Studies were undertaken to determine whether natural killer (NK) cells could inhibit the replication of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) in culture. In the absence of effector cells, HSV-1 was found to replicate in fibroblasts with up to a 100-fold increase in virus titer from 4 to 16 hr after incubation at 37 degrees C. Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells were found to limit virus replication in a dose-dependent manner, with the greatest inhibition being observed at the highest concentration evaluated: i.e., an effector:target ratio of 800:1. The antiviral effect was not observed when nonactivated or virus-activated mononuclear cells were added to the virus preparations at the end (instead of the beginning) of the assay period, indicating that the observed effect was not due to a nonspecific toxicity of soluble factors released from freeze-thawed effectors. Neither was inhibition of HSV-1 replication due to the generation of interferon (IFN) during the NK assay, because the addition of anti-IFN did not abrogate the antiviral effect. Thus, the inhibition of viral replication was most likely due to a cytotoxic effector rather than to release of soluble factors. The effector cells responsible for limiting HSV-1 replication were shown to be NK cells by a number of criteria. Mononuclear cells from both HSV-1 seropositive and seronegative donors limited virus replication; their activity could be boosted by pretreatment of effector cells with IFN; the effector cells which limited virus replication were found in Percoll gradient fractions enriched for large granular lymphocytes; and the effector cells shared the cell surface phenotype of NK cells--they were enriched in populations depleted of T cells by panning with Leu-4 and were depleted of activity by treatment with the anti-NK antibody Leu-11b plus complement. We conclude that human NK cells are capable of recognizing and lysing HSV-1-infected target cells before infectious virus progeny are generated. These results suggest that NK cells, acting early in the course of an infection, might serve to limit HSV-1 replication and therefore reduce the virus load in the host before the development of the adaptive immune response and clearance of the infection. 相似文献

Functional status of interleukin 2 receptors expressed by immature (Lyt-2-/L3T4-) thymocytes 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9

A subpopulation of phenotypically immature (Lyt-2-/L3T4-) thymocytes express receptors for the polypeptide hormone interleukin 2 (IL 2); however, these cells do not proliferate in vitro in response to IL 2. In investigating this phenomenon in greater detail, we observed that the IL 2 receptors (IL 2-R) on freshly isolated immature thymocytes bound IL 2 with about fivefold lower affinity (Kd approximately 100 pM) than IL 2-R on activated mature T cells and T cell lines (Kd approximately 20 pM). Furthermore, in contrast to activated T cells, Lyt-2-/L3T4- thymocytes did not endocytose bound IL 2. When stimulated in short-term culture with a combination of phorbol ester (PMA) and calcium ionophore, Lyt-2-/L3T4- thymocytes proliferated in a largely IL 2-dependent fashion. IL 2-R expression on these activated cells initially disappeared (at 24 hr) and subsequently reappeared (at 48 to 72 hr). Reexpressed IL 2-R on activated thymocytes resembled those on mature T lymphocytes in that they bound IL 2 with high affinity (Kd = 15 to 25 pM) and were capable of endocytosing IL 2. Taken together, these data place certain constraints on the putative physiologic role of IL 2 in intrathymic growth regulation. 相似文献

Frequency analysis of class I MHC-reactive Lyt-2+ and class II MHC-reactive L3T4+ IL 2-secreting T lymphocytes 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

The reactivity of Lyt-2+ or L3T4+ T cells stimulated with either mutant class I or class II MHC alloantigens was studied. Whereas stimulation with class I MHC antigens induced only Lyt-2+ T cells to proliferate and to secrete IL 2, stimulation with class II MHC alloantigens induced L3T4+ but not Lyt-2+ T cells. When the frequencies of precursors of IL 2-secreting T lymphocytes (IL 2TL-p) were determined by limiting dilution analyses, class I MHC-reactive Lyt-2+ T cells displayed frequencies (f = 1/200) as high in magnitude as those within class II MHC-reactive L3T4+ (f = 1/100). Clonally developing IL 2TL of either T cell subset were antigen-specific, as shown in split-culture experiments. Whereas L3T4+ helper TL could be induced to specific IL 2 secretion over a long time period (days 3 to 9), Lyt-2+ TL showed a marked time optimal on day 4; thereafter, the number of TL colonies inducible to secrete IL 2 decreased steadily. IL 2 production and IL 2TL-p frequencies of unseparated T responder cells were not the numerical superposition of the two individual T cell subsets (Lyt-2+ + L3T4+); the latter finding is likely to reflect regulatory influences of Lyt-2+ T cells on IL 2-secreting L3T4+ T cells. 相似文献

Induction and activity of class II-restricted, Lyt-2+ cytolytic T lymphocytes specific for the influenza H5 hemagglutinin 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
In influenza A virus infections, CTL are a significant component of the host immune response which limits viral replication and promotes recovery. To examine the CTL response to the influenza virus A/Ty/Ont/7732/66[H5N9], particularly the H5 hemagglutinin, a long term CTL line was generated from spleen cells of A/Ty/Ont-immune Balb/c [H-2d] mice secondarily stimulated in vitro with A/Ty/Cal/Hurst-2/71[H5N2]. This CTL line was highly specific for influenza viruses of the H5 subtype. From this line, clones were isolated by limiting dilution and shown to be H5 hemagglutinin-specific based on recognition of an H5 vaccinia virus recombinant (H5 Vac). The clones exhibited the classical CTL surface phenotype Lyt-1-2+L3T4-; however, unlike the typically class I-restricted Lyt-2+ CTL, they were restricted in antigen recognition by class II (I-E) MHC molecules based on target cell recognition and antibody blocking of cytotoxicity. The clones recognized both infectious and non-infectious A/Ty/Ont presented by class II+ target cells. In adoptive transfer studies to assess the biologic role of the clones in vivo, these class II-restricted clones did not appear to alter mortality. However, these cells significantly reduced both morbidity and virus titers in the lungs of infected animals at 5 days post-infection. Thus, in the immune response to this virus, class II-restricted Lyt-2+ CTL specific for the H5 hemagglutinin were readily generated and their biologic role in vivo involved viral clearance. 相似文献

Interleukin 2 regulates immune interferon (IFN gamma) production by normal and suppressor cell cultures 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11

A Lyt-2+ lymphocyte is responsible for immune interferon (IFN gamma) production in mitogen-stimulated mouse spleen cell cultures. A Lyt-1+ helper cell is required for the induction of IFN gamma. Interleukin 2 (IL 2) can specifically replace the Lyt 1 cell requirement. IL 2 will also abrogate suppressor cell inhibition of IFN gamma production. IFN gamma production appears to be regulated by a dynamic interaction between helper cells (source of IL 2), suppressor cells (absorption of IL 2?) and IFN gammna-producer cells. 相似文献

The development of virus-specific cell-mediated immune (CMI) memory and effector response was studied in strain 13/N guinea pigs infected with herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) (G). The indirect leukocyte migration inhibition factor (LIF) and the lymphocyte transformation (LT) assays, chosen as probable indicators of effector and memory responses, respectively, were performed simultaneously on spleen cells (SC) obtained at varying times after infection and cultured in the presence of uv-inactivated HSV-2 (G) antigen. Kinetic and dose-response analyses revealed: (i) a time-dependent increase in the magnitude and antigen sensitivity of the LT response as well as a time-dependent decrease in the in vitro “doubling time,” both suggestive of immune maturation, and (ii) a biphasic pattern of LIF production in vitro consisting of an “early” component generated within the first 24 hr in culture, and a “late” component detected between 3 and 6 days in culture. “Late” LIF production correlated well with the lymphoproliferative response and appeared to require the presence of glass-adherent cells and active cell division. 相似文献

We have previously demonstrated that following the adoptive transfer of immune cells, the regression of established pulmonary metastases from a weakly immunogenic sarcoma, MCA 105, required the collaboration of two T cell subsets. In this study, we found that the critical role played by L3T4+ immune cells was to provide a helper function since tumor regression proceeded in the absence of L3T4+ immune cells if exogenous interleukin 2 (IL-2) was administered. To extend these observations, we analyzed the events leading to the induction and generation of L3T4+ and Lyt-2+ immune T cells after immunization of mice with viable tumor cells admixed with Corynebacterium parvum. The basic protocol involved immunization, surgical excision of the immunization site on day 7, and challenge with viable tumor cells on day 21. The ability of mice to reject tumor challenge provided a means to evaluate the occurrence of a systemic antitumor immunity. With the use of this experimental protocol, we have found that depletion of T cell subsets in vivo with either L3T4 or Lyt-2 monoclonal antibodies after active immunization abrogated the development of antitumor immunity. Mice immunized and depleted of L3T4+ but not Lyt-2+ T cells were able to reject tumor challenge if exogenous IL-2 was given for 7 days. However, the rejection of tumor challenge required 3 days of additional exogenous IL-2 administration. These results indicate that the induction of Lyt-2+ immune T cells depended on the helper function of L3T4+ T cells via the secretion of IL-2. In the absence of L3T4+ immune lymphocytes, the expression of antitumor immunity by Lyt-2+ immune cells could be facilitated by in vivo administration of exogenous IL-2. The induction of L3T4+ immune T cells, on the other hand, occurred independently of the Lyt-2+ T cell response because the transfer of spleen cells from Lyt-2+ cell-depleted, immunized animals was able to restore antitumor reactivity in L3T4+ cell-depleted, immunized mice. These results demonstrate the intricate cellular interactions leading to the induction as well as the expression of antitumor immunity. 相似文献

Interleukin (IL) -21 is produced by Natural Killer T (NKT) cells and CD4+ T cells and is produced in response to virus infections, where IL-21 has been shown to be essential in adaptive immune responses. Cells from the innate immune system such as Natural Killer (NK) cells and macrophages are also important in immune protection against virus. These cells express the IL-21 receptor (IL-21R) and respond to IL-21 with increased cytotoxicity and cytokine production. Currently, however it is not known whether IL-21 plays a significant role in innate immune responses to virus infections. The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of IL-21 and IL-21R in the innate immune response to a virus infection. We used C57BL/6 wild type (WT) and IL-21R knock out (KO) mice in a murine vaginal Herpes Simplex Virus type 2 (HSV-2) infection model to show that IL-21 – IL-21R signalling is indeed important in innate immune responses against HSV-2. We found that the IL-21R was expressed in the vaginal epithelium in uninfected (u.i) WT mice, and expression increased early after HSV-2 infection. IL-21R KO mice exhibited increased vaginal viral titers on day 2 and 3 post infection (p.i.) and subsequently developed significantly higher disease scores and a lower survival rate compared to WT mice. In addition, WT mice infected with HSV-2 receiving intra-vaginal pre-treatment with murine recombinant IL-21 (mIL-21) had decreased vaginal viral titers on day 2 p.i., significantly lower disease scores, and a higher survival rate compared to infected untreated WT controls. Collectively our data demonstrate the novel finding that the IL-21R plays a critical role in regulating innate immune responses against HSV-2 infection. 相似文献
