The function and immunoregulation of human IgA memory B cells producing anti-influenza virus antibody was analyzed in vitro in antigen-stimulated cultures. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from seven of eight normal adult volunteers naturally immunized to influenza virus produced IgA anti-influenza virus antibody when stimulated in vitro with inactivated A/Aichi/68 [H3N2] influenza virus. This IgA antibody response was approximately one-eighth the IgG antibody response. PBMC from each of five patients with selective IgA deficiency failed to produce any measurable IgA antibody. When tonsillar mononuclear cells (TMC) were studied in a similar manner, a relatively higher IgA antibody response was obtained (one-third the IgG antibody) than with PBMC. Additional studies were undertaken to investigate the immunoregulation of this IgA antibody production and the relatively lower amount produced by PBMC than by TMC. Co-cultures of peripheral blood B cells with irradiated peripheral blood T cells (to possibly inactivate a radiosensitive IgA suppressor cell) did not result in a relative increase in IgA antibody production. Also, co-cultures of B cells with increasing numbers of T cells produced parallel increases of IgG and IgA antibody when plotted on a log scale with slopes of approximately 1, suggesting that a single helper T cell was limiting for both isotypes. Finally, pokeweed mitogen-stimulated co-cultures of peripheral blood and tonsillar B and T cells revealed that the B cell population, but not the T cell population, determined the amount of IgA anti-influenza virus antibody produced. Precursor frequency analyses of tonsillar and peripheral blood B cells in antigen-stimulated cultures confirmed that tonsils contained a higher precursor frequency of B cells for IgA anti-influenza virus antibody production (3.95/10(6) B cells) than did peripheral blood B cells (0.65/10(6) B cells). Thus, IgA memory cells are preferentially found in tonsillar tissue as compared with the peripheral blood, consistent with the role of the tonsils as a mucosal immune organ.  相似文献

Virus specificity of human influenza virus-immune cytotoxic T cells.   总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4  
The virus specificity of human in vitro cytotoxic T cell responses to influenza virus was studied with the use of peripheral blood mononuclear leukocytes from normal adult volunteers. Previous natural exposure of these donors to a variety of type A influenza viruses was documented by HI antibody titers. Cells sensitized in vitro with A/HK or A/PR8 were cytotoxic for autologous target cells infected with A/HK, A/PR8, or A/JAP 305 type A influenza viruses, but not for B/HK-infected or uninfected cells. B/HK-sensitized effector cells lysed target cells infected with B/HK but not targets infected with type A viruses. A/HK- and A/PR8-immune effector populations were shown to recognize cross-reactive antigens on A/HK- and A/PR8-infected target cells by cold target competition. Influenza-immune effector cells were cytotoxic for virus-infected autologous targets but much less so for virus-infected allogeneic targets. This self-restriction suggested that the cytotoxicity was largely T cell-mediated and was confirmed by cell separation analysis. Thus, the human secondary cytotoxic T cell response in vitro to influenza viruses is predominantly directed against cross-reactive determinants on cells infected with serologically distinct type A influenza viruses.  相似文献

Cloned human T lymphocytes induced with influenza A virus (A/Texas/1/77) and maintained in continuous culture with T cell growth factor were assayed for helper function in the in vitro production of anti-influenza antibody. Helper function mediated by both cloned helper T cells and normal peripheral blood lymphocytes was highly antigen dose-dependent, requiring lower concentrations than that necessary to induce blastogenesis. Optimal help was observed with 1 X 10(2) cloned T cells per culture, whereas excess helper cells inhibited the response. After culture with influenza A virus-induced cloned helper T cells, the antibodies formed were directed against influenza A and not B virus. Furthermore, the cloned helper T cells despite being specific for matrix protein collaborated in the production of predominantly anti-hemagglutinin antibody, suggesting associative recognition of the two discrete antigens. Cellular interactions between cloned helper cells from an HLA-Dw1,3 DR1,3 individual and erythrocyte rosette-negative cells required HLA-Dw1; DR1 compatibility for the production of specific antibody. This was confirmed by using subclones. Finally, it was observed that supernatants of the cloned helper T cells contained functional activity capable of replacing the parent cells in the production of anti-influenza A virus antibody.  相似文献

PY206 is an Id associated with a BALB/c murine mAb described as being specific for the influenza A virus hemagglutinin. However, production of this Id by BALB/c mice immunized with influenza is low. This report shows that the PY206 Id is a dominant component of the anti-influenza antibody response in C57BL/6J strain mice infected intranasally with the influenza A/Hong Kong/168/(H3N2)[R] X-31 virus. High PY206 Id expression was linked to the IgHb Ig allotype locus. PY206 Id+ antibody-forming cells were identified in situ in cryostat sections of lymphoid tissues and idiotypic heterogeneity was identified among PY206+ B cells. Uninfected adult C57BL/6J mice had PY206 Id in their serum that lacked influenza binding specificity. In situ analysis of prenatal and neonatal spleen of uninfected C57BL/6J mice showed that the expansion of PY206 Id+ B cells occurred early in development. PY206+ cells were demonstrated in the lungs of influenza-infected mice but not in normal mice, establishing the capability to study this B cell population in the lung. This model offers the opportunity to manipulate the anti-influenza A virus hemagglutinin B cell response and to study the proliferation and migration of influenza-specific B cells in their native tissue environments.  相似文献

Ethanolic extracts of 20 medicinal plants were screened for influenza virus NA inhibition and in vitro antiviral activities using MDCK cells in an MTT assay. The vaccine proteins of influenza virus A/New Caledonia/20/99 (H1N1), mouse-adapted influenza virus A/Guizhou/54/89 (A/G)(H3N2) and mouse-adapted influenza virus B/Ibaraki/2/85 (B/I) were used in the NA inhibition assay, and mouse-adapted influenza viruses A/PR/8/34 (H1N1), A/G and B/I were used in the in vitro antiviral assay. The results of the in vitro antiviral assay indicated that the A/G virus was the most susceptible and an extract of the leaf of CS possessed the highest in vitro anti-A/G virus activity (41.98%). Therefore, the A/G virus and the CS extract were selected for studying in vivo anti-influenza virus activity. BALB/c mice were treated with CS extract (100 mg/kg per day, 5 times) orally from 4 hr before to 4 days after infection. CS extract elicited significant production of anti-influenza virus IgG1 antibody in BAW and increased mouse weight compared to oseltamivir (0.1 mg/kg per day) on day 19 or water on days 17–19 of infection. Moreover, CS extract produced a higher anti-influenza virus IgA antibody level in BAW compared to oseltamivir, and a tendency towards an increase in anti-influenza virus IgA compared to water was shown. The results suggest that CS extract has a protective effect against influenza virus infection.  相似文献

Resembling the in vitro antibody response of the newborn cultures of cord blood lymphocytes stimulated with pokeweed mitogen (PWM) generated fewer plasma cells (PC) than comparable adult lymphocyte cultures and the response was almost exclusively of the IgM class. We investigated the cellular basis of this difference by preparing mixed cultures of newborn T or B lymphocytes with adult B or T cells. Substitution of adult for newborn T cells enhanced the response of newborn B cells, particularly of the IgG and IgA classes. The response of second trimester fetal spleen cells was also increased by adult T cells, although no IgA PC appeared. Conversely, adult B cells generated fewer PC particularly of the IgG and IgA classes when cultured with newborn T cells. The relatively poor IgA and IgG responses of newborn cells seems partially but not entirely due to deficiency of T cell helper function. Suppressor activity of newborn T cells was investigated by adding excess unrelated newborn or adult T cells to adult T + B cells: adult T cells improved the response whereas newborn T cells were variably suppressive. The results indicate that newborn T cells, although capable of helper function, are balanced toward suppression.  相似文献

In our study, we have measured in vitro proliferation and IL-2 production by human PBL to characterize the interactions between Th cells and accessory cells (AC) involved in responses to either conventional Ag or alloantigens. IL-2 production and proliferative responses to conventional Ag, such as influenza or tetanus, are exclusively dependent on the presence of CD4+ T cells and AC. In contrast, IL-2 and proliferative responses to alloantigen can be mediated by either CD4+ or CD8+ T cells. CD4+ T cells respond to alloantigen using either autologous AC (self-restricted), or allogeneic AC (allo-restricted), whereas CD8+ T cells respond to alloantigen using allogeneic AC only. The understanding of Th cell-AC interactions involved in in vitro allogeneic responses will be important for delineating the Th cell-AC interactions involved in transplantation immunity as well as in clinical disorders characterized by T cell dysfunction such as human immunodeficiency virus infection and systemic lupus erythematosus.  相似文献

Blood mononuclear cells of two individuals having immunodeficiency with thymoma (ID-THY) were cocultured with normal mononuclear cells or treated mononuclear cell fractions in an attempt to correct an imbalance of regulatory cells postulated to be responsible for the failure of pokeweed mitogen-induced Ig synthesis in vitro. Treatment included abrogation of suppressor cell activity by irradiation or incubation with prednisilone in vitro. T cell help was provided by cocultivating lymphocytes of related and unrelated persons, and in some cases autologous treated cells. Ig secretion failed to be induced by any experimental maneuver suggesting that the primary problem in the above ID-THY cells was related to defective or deficient B cells rather than an imbalance of T regulatory cells. Prednisilone treatment in vitro decreased suppressor cell activity in allogeneic cocultures of two ID-THY persons (S1 and S2) but not of an individual (S3) with variable immunodeficiency suggesting heterogeneity of suppressor cells.  相似文献

Influenza is a ssRNA virus that has been responsible for widespread morbidity and mortality; however, the innate immunological mechanisms that drive the adaptive anti-influenza immune response in vivo are yet to be fully elucidated. TLRs are pattern recognition receptors that bind evolutionarily conserved pathogen-associated molecular patterns, induce dendritic cell maturation, and consequently aid the development of effective immune responses. We have examined the role of TLRs in driving effective T and B cell responses against influenza virus. We found TLR3 and its associated adapter molecule, Toll/IL-R domain-containing adaptor-inducing IFN-beta, did not play a role in the development of CD4(+) or CD8(+) T cell responses against influenza virus, nor did they influence influenza-specific B cell responses. Surprisingly, TLR7 and MyD88 also played negligible roles in T cell activation and effector function upon infection with influenza virus; however, their signaling was critical for regulating anti-influenza B cell Ab isotype switching. The induction of appropriate anti-influenza humoral responses involved stimulation of TLRs on B cells directly and TLR-induced production of IFN-alpha, which acted to reduce IgG1 and increase IgG2a/c class switching. Notably, direct TLR signaling on B cells or T cell help through the CD40-CD40L interaction was sufficient to support B cell proliferation and IgG1 production, whereas IFN-alpha was critical for fine-tuning the nature of the isotype switch. Taken together, these data reveal that TLR signaling is not required for anti-influenza T cell responses, but through both direct and indirect means orchestrates appropriate anti-influenza B cell responses.  相似文献

The lymphocyte function-associated antigen 1 (LFA-1) has been shown to play a role in various T cell functions in mice and humans including cytotoxicity, and proliferation to allogeneic cells and foreign antigens. These functions have been defined with specific monoclonal antibodies and were additionally confirmed by the investigation of patients with inherited deficiency in membrane LFA-1 expression. In this paper, we report our studies on the potential role of the LFA-1 molecule in T lymphocyte-dependent antibody responses. In a patient with a complete lack of membrane expression of LFA-1, there was no in vivo antibody response to vaccinal antigens such as tetanus, diphtheria toxoids, and polio virus, and no in vivo or in vitro antibody production to influenza virus, whereas serum immunoglobulin levels and antibodies to polysaccharides (isohemagglutinins, antibody to mannan, and a polysaccharide from Candida albicans) were detected in correlation with in vitro production of anti-mannan antibody. The defective antibody response to polypeptides was not secondary to poor antigen-specific T proliferation, because the latter was found to be present. Similarly, in vitro antibody production to influenza virus of normal cells was blocked by several anti LFA-1 monoclonal antibodies specific for the alpha subunit of the molecule, if they were added from the beginning of the culture. The antibody production blockade could be achieved with monoclonal antibody concentrations that partially preserved T cell proliferation. The helper effect of an influenza virus-specific helper T cell clone was also blocked. The targets of the blockade were shown by incubation experiments to be T cells and monocytes. In contrast, anti-LFA-1 monoclonal antibodies had no effect on pokeweed mitogen-induced B cell maturation into immunoglobulin-containing cells and on the anti-mannan antibody production. These combined data demonstrate that the LFA-1 molecule plays a role in T cell dependent antibody production to polypeptidic antigens but not in the antibody response to polysaccharides, although the antibody response to mannan is T cell dependent. It is proposed that the LFA-1 molecule is required to some extent for a antigen-presenting cells-T lymphocyte interaction and for the maintenance of a close association between antigen-specific helper T cells and small resting B lymphocytes. Polysaccharidic antigens that exhibit repetitive antigenic determinants might cross-link membrane immunoglobulins on B lymphocytes, thus allowing B cells to pass through a first step of activation requiring cognate T-B cell interaction.  相似文献

The role of human fetal thymocytes in the regulation of IgG and IgM production was examined. In pokeweed mitogen (PWM)-driven cocultures between thymocytes and normal adult peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMs) significantly enhanced secretion of both IgM (350% expected; P < 0.02) and IgG (450% expected; P < 0.001) was observed. In contrast, adult PBMs or adult T cells neither suppressed nor enhanced IgM or IgG production in coculture with allogeneic adult PBMs. Enhanced immunoglobulin secretion was not found when fetal thymocytes were cocultured with the T-cell-depleted fraction of adult PBMs. These results suggest that human fetal thymocytes (as early as 12 weeks gestational age) can provide helper cell function for both IgM and IgG secretion in PWM-driven cell cultures; however, a more mature T-cell effector is required for expression of this helper function.  相似文献

The fine specificity of anti-influenza antibody produced in vitro by human PBM stimulated with different strains of influenza virus was examined by competition binding in solid phase enzyme immunoassay. Most of the antibody produced in vitro is directed to strain-specific or cross-reactive determinants on the hemagglutinin molecule. The extent of cross-reactivity is dependent on the strain of virus used to stimulate PBM as well as the individual tested and presumably on his previous exposure to influenza viruses. PBM from some individuals produced antibody that bound to the stimulating strain of influenza virus but not to other strains of the same subtype. In other individuals, antibody was produced in vitro that cross-reacted with all viruses in the same subtype (e.g., H3N2; A/X31, A/X47, and A/Texas) but did not bind to other (H2N1 or H1N1) subtypes, and in a few individuals, extensive cross-reaction between subtypes was seen. The presence of antibody to hemagglutinin in these culture supernatants was confirmed by competition binding to highly purified hemagglutinin. This in vitro culture system allows the immunologic memory of individuals to a wide range of stimulating virus strains to be examined simultaneously in terms of specificity of the antibody response by human PBM to influenza virus after natural infection or immunization.  相似文献

Earlier studies have demonstrated that T cells activated in mixed lymphocyte reactions can exert positive as well as negative allogeneic effects on B cells expressing the appropriate alloantigens on their surface. We investigated the effect of in vivo priming of T cells with alloantigens on their capacity to help or suppress allogeneic B cell cultures against sheep erythrocytes. We used immunization protocols that have been shown to be optimal for induction of alloantigen-specific delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) and alloantigen-specific suppressor T (Ts) cells for DTH. The results show that in vivo stimulation with alloantigens, depending on the immunization route and the lymphoid organ studied, can be as effective as in vitro stimulation in increasing the frequency of alloantigen-specific helper T (Th) cells and Ts cells. Subcutaneous immunization induced a 10-fold frequency raise of Th cells as well as of Ts cells in the lymph nodes. In the spleen the Th cell population was hardly affected by s.c. immunization, whereas the Ts cell population increased by at least a factor 20. Intravenous immunization, on the other hand, selectively expanded the Th cell population in the spleen, whereas the splenic Ts cell population and the Th and Ts cells in the lymph nodes were not affected. Comparison of these results with our previous data concerning characteristics and the requirements of in vivo activation of alloantigen-specific DTH reactive T cells and of alloantigen-specific Ts cells suggest that different Ts cell populations are involved in suppression of alloantigen-specific DTH in vivo and of allogeneic suppression of in vitro induced sheep erythrocytes specific antibody formation.  相似文献

Activation of alloreactive T cells by APCs such as dendritic cells (DC) has been implicated as crucial step in transplant rejection. In contrast, it has been proposed that macrophages (Mphi) maintain tolerance toward alloantigens. It was therefore the aim of this study to further analyze the T cell-stimulatory capacity of mature DC and Mphi in vitro using the model of allogeneic MLR. There was a strong proliferative response in T cells cocultured with DC, which was further increased upon restimulation in a secondary MLR. In contrast, T cells did not proliferate in cocultures with Mphi despite costimulation with anti-CD28 and IL-2. Cytokine analysis revealed considerable levels of IL-10 in cocultures of T cells with Mphi, whereas high amounts of IL-2 and IFN-gamma were present in cocultures with DC. There was only minimal T cell proliferation in a secondary MLR when T cells were rescued from primary MLR with Mphi and restimulated with DC of the same donor, or DC of an unrelated donor (third party), whereas a strong primary proliferative response was observed in resting T cells, demonstrating induction of T cell anergy by Mphi. Functional analysis of T cells rescued from cocultures with Mphi demonstrated that anergy was at least partly mediated by IL-10-producing regulatory T cells induced by Mphi. These results demonstrate that Mphi drive the differentiation of regulatory T cells and mediate anergy in allogeneic T cells, supporting the concept that Mphi maintain peripheral tolerance in vivo.  相似文献

The in vitro generation of allospecific CTL by human PBMC was enhanced 4- to 16-fold by sequential plastic and nylon wool adherence, which depleted the PBMC of macrophages and B cells. The enhanced CTL response was suppressed by adding back irradiated, unfractionated PBMC or adherent cells to the depleted cells. This finding suggests that the enhanced CTL response was not simply a consequence of enrichment of T cells, but was instead due to active suppression by radioresistant cells contained in the adherent fraction. Of note is the finding that, unlike the CTL response, the proliferative response to allostimulation was not affected by the removal of adherent cells. The suppressor function could be abrogated by preincubation of irradiated PBMC with influenza A virus before the coculture with depleted cells. Furthermore, costimulation of unfractionated PBMC with influenza A virus and allogeneic stimulators augmented allospecific CTL activity. Thus, in the adherent fraction of human PBMC, there appears to be a native suppressor population that can be functionally inactivated by virus. This result may account for the clinical observation of increased allograft rejection after certain viral infections.  相似文献

T lymphocytes from neonates proliferated significantly more than peripheral blood T lymphocytes from adults in autologous mixed lymphocyte reactions (AMLR). AMLR-activated cord, as compared to adult T lymphocytes, exerted significantly less nonspecific cytotoxic activity on PHA-stimulated adult mononuclear cells and Epstein-Barr virus-transformed target cells. The impaired generation of cytotoxicity of cord T cells was not corrected by Interleukin-2. Blood T lymphocytes from adults activated in AMLR synthesized a helper factor that supported PWM-induced proliferation and immunoglobulin production in both adult and cord B lymphocytes. In contrast, cord blood T lymphocytes failed to produce the helper factor for B lymphocytes. T cells from AMLR cultures established with neonatal lymphocytes showed suppressor activity, as assessed in PWM-stimulated immunoglobulin synthesis of adult peripheral-blood mononuclear cells, significantly higher than that exhibited by T cells from AMLR cultures performed with lymphocytes from adults. Finally, neonatal B lymphocytes could be activated to the production of IgM but not IgG by either adult AMLR-derived helper factor plus PWM or by Epstein-Barr virus, whereas adult B cells secreted both IgM and IgG under the same type of stimulation.  相似文献

Athymic nude mice implanted with F1 thymus glands were used to investigate genetic restrictions regulating T cell-macrophage (M phi) interactions in the development of antibody responses to GAT. Spleen cells from conventional mice developed comparable primary plaque-forming cell (PFC) responses when stimulated by syngeneic and allogeneic GAT-M phi. However, spleen cells from strain A nude mice implanted with (A X B)F1 thymus glands were tolerant of strain B alloantigens and developed GAT-specific PFC responses to strain A GAT-M phi and allogeneic strain C GAT-M phi, but failed to respond to strain B GAT-M phi. The lack of primary GAT-specific PFC responses by spleen cells from (A X B)thy----A nude mice stimulated by strain B GAT-M phi was not due to detectable suppressor mechanisms. However, an allogeneic effect stimulated by H-2- or non-H-2-disparate GAT-pulsed or unpulsed M phi was able to overcome the inability of spleen cells from (A X B)F1 thy----A nude mice to respond to strain B GAT-M phi. Furthermore, the inability to respond to strain B GAT-M phi was overcome by the addition of supernatant fluids from independent cultures of H-2-disparate cells. These results 1) demonstrate that T cells from A nude mice implanted with (A X B)F1 thymus glands did not recognize nominal antigen in the context of B MHC antigens, and 2) suggested that the T cell repertoire was altered in strain A nude mice implanted with (A X B)F1 thymus glands, such that T cells that could recognize GAT in association with strain B MHC antigens were functionally deleted.  相似文献

The spleen of neonatal mice is known to be a rich source of cells capable of suppressing a variety of immune functions of adult lymphocytes in vitro. From such observations has emerged the concept that the gradual development in ability to express immune functions after birth is due in part to the parallel normal physiological decay of naturally occurring regulatory suppressor cells. There is, however, some confusion in the literature as to the exact nature of the newborn of the newborn inhibitory cell type(s). In contrast to most previous reports which detect only a single type of neonatal suppressor cell, usually a T cell, we show here that newborn spleen harbors both T and non-T inhibitory cells. Both types of suppressor cells could be shown to suppress the proliferative response of adult spleen to alloantigens as well as newborn T cells reacting against self-Ia antigen in the autologous mixed lymphocyte reaction (AMLR). Newborn suppressor T cells were characterized as being non-adherent to Ig-anti-Ig affinity columns, soybean agglutinin receptor negative (SBA-), and susceptible to lysis by anti-T-cell specific antiserum plus complement. Non-T suppressor cells were identified as non-phagocytic, SBA receptor positive (SBA+), and resistant to cytotoxic treatment with anti-T-cell antibodies and complement. The apparent controversy surrounding previous reports as to the T versus non-T nature of newborn suppressor cells can be reconciled by the present observation that both types of inhibitory cells coexist in the spleen. Furthermore, the demonstration that newborn suppressor cells can effectively regulate T-cell proliferative activity mediated by other newborn cells provides more direct support for the contention that such inhibitory cells play a physiological role in controlling immune responsiveness during early ontogeny.  相似文献

The mechanisms whereby CD4 T cells contribute to the protective response against lethal influenza infection remain poorly characterized. To define the role of CD4 cells in protection against a highly pathogenic strain of influenza, virus-specific TCR transgenic CD4 effectors were generated in vitro and transferred into mice given lethal influenza infection. Primed CD4 effectors conferred protection against lethal infection over a broad range of viral dose. The protection mediated by CD4 effectors did not require IFN-gamma or host T cells, but did result in increased anti-influenza Ab titers compared with untreated controls. Further studies indicated that CD4-mediated protection at high doses of influenza required B cells, and that passive transfer of anti-influenza immune serum was therapeutic in B cell-deficient mice, but only when CD4 effectors were present. Primed CD4 cells also acquired perforin (Pfn)-mediated cytolytic activity during effector generation, suggesting a second mechanism used by CD4 cells to confer protection. Pfn-deficient CD4 effectors were less able to promote survival in intact BALB/c mice and were unable to provide protection in B cell-deficient mice, indicating that Ab-independent protection by CD4 effectors requires Pfn. Therefore, CD4 effectors mediate protection to lethal influenza through at least two mechanisms: Pfn-mediated cytotoxicity early in the response promoted survival independently of Ab production, whereas CD4-driven B cell responses resulted in high titer Abs that neutralized remaining virus.  相似文献

Intracameral inoculation of allogeneic B16F10 melanoma cells (C57BL/6) into LP/J mice resulted in progressively growing intraocular tumors and impaired delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) reactivity. Additional experiments showed that DTH responses were specifically down-regulated by splenic T suppressor cells. By contrast, subcutaneous inoculation of B16F10 melanoma cells induced significant DTH responses to the alloantigens expressed on the tumor cells and stimulated brisk rejection of the subcutaneously injected tumor cells. In spite of the T suppressor cell inhibition of DTH reactivity, significant cytotoxic T lymphocyte activity could be demonstrated in lymphoid cell suspensions from hosts harboring allogeneic intraocular tumors. The demonstrated cytotoxic T lymphocyte activity is particularly noteworthy because it occurs in the face of severely suppressed DTH responsiveness and thus implies that the intracameral presentation of alloantigens evokes a precise immunoregulatory process that selectively and concomitantly modulates specific cellular immune components; one immune process (cytotoxic T lymphocyte function) is stimulated whereas the other (DTH responsiveness) is down-regulated.  相似文献
