Immunization of mice with DNA encoding the influenza virus hemagglutinin (HA) affords complete protection against lethal influenza virus infection and the means to investigate the mechanisms of B-cell responsiveness to virus challenge. Using a single-cell enzyme-linked immunospot assay, we sought to determine the localization of HA-specific antibody-forming cells (AFCs) during the development of humoral immunity in mice given HA DNA vaccine by gene gun. At 33 days postvaccination, populations of AFCs were maintained in the spleen and bone marrow. In response to lethal challenge with influenza virus, the AFCs became localized at the site of antigenic challenge, i.e., within the draining lymph nodes of the lung compartment. Immunoglobulin G (IgG)- and IgA-producing AFCs were detected in lymph nodes of the upper and lower respiratory tracts, underscoring their importance in clearing virus from the lungs. Response to challenge required competent CD4+ T cells, without which no AFCs were generated, even those producing IgM. By contrast, in mice vaccinated with an HA-containing subunit vaccine, fewer AFCs were generated in response to challenge, and these animals were less capable of resisting infection. Our findings demonstrate the comparable localization of AFCs in response to challenge in mice vaccinated with either HA DNA or live virus. Moreover, the former strategy generates both IgG- and IgA-producing plasma cells. 相似文献

Lymphotoxin-alpha-deficient mice make delayed,but effective,T and B cell responses to influenza 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

Lymphotoxin-alpha(-/-) (LTalpha(-/-)) mice are thought to be unable to generate effective T and B cell responses. This is attributed to the lack of lymph nodes and the disrupted splenic architecture of these mice. However, despite these defects we found that LTalpha(-/-) mice could survive infection with a virulent influenza A virus. LTalpha(-/-) mice and normal wild-type mice infected with influenza A generated similar numbers of influenza-specific CD8 T cells that were able to produce IFN-gamma and kill target cells presenting influenza peptides. Furthermore influenza-infected LTalpha(-/-) mice produced high titers of influenza-specific IgM, IgG, and IgA. However, both CD8 and B cell immune responses were delayed in LTalpha(-/-) mice by 2-3 days. The delayed cellular and humoral immune response was sufficient to mediate viral clearance in LTalpha(-/-) mice that were infected with relatively low doses of influenza virus. However, when LTalpha(-/-) mice were infected with larger doses of influenza, they succumbed to infection before the immune response was initiated. These results demonstrate that neither LTalpha nor constitutively organized lymphoid tissues, such as lymph nodes and spleen, are absolutely required for the generation of effective immunity against the respiratory virus influenza A. However, the presence of LTalpha and/or lymph nodes does accelerate the initiation of immune responses, which leads to protection from larger doses of virus. 相似文献

The infection of cells which belong to the B-cell lineage is thought to be the primary event leading to the phenotypic and functional alterations seen in the murine AIDS (M. Huang, C. Simard, D. Kay, and P. Jolicoeur, J. Virol. 65:6562-6571, 1991). Using in situ hybridization, we studied the time course of the anatomic distribution of the murine AIDS-infected B cells in C57BL/6 mice inoculated intraperitoneally or in the foot pad with helper-free stocks of the defective murine AIDS virus. The local lymph nodes draining the injection site (the mediastinal or popliteal lymph nodes) were the primary organs in which infected B cells could be detected. From this initial site, the proliferating infected B cells were found to migrate progressively to most of the other lymph nodes and to the spleen. The bone marrow cells (containing the precursor B cells) were not found to be infected by the virus. These results suggest that the defective murine AIDS virus infects mature Ly-1- B cells present in lymph nodes. We compared the concanavalin A response of the T cells at an early time postinoculation, before all lymphoid organs are infiltrated with infected B cells. In lymphoid organs free of infected B cells, T cells were found to be hyperresponsive. In lymphoid organs in which infected B cells were present, T cells were hyporesponsive. These data suggest that infected B cells influence distant T cells, maybe by the release of a circulating factor or through another uninfected cell population activated by the infected B cells. 相似文献

Cellular events in the lymph node and lung of mice with influenza. Consequences of depleting CD4+ T cells. 总被引:22,自引:0,他引:22

The cellularity of the mediastinal lymph nodes of mice infected intranasally with a high dose of an H3N2 influenza A virus increases massively within 5 days. All classes of lymphocytes are involved. A similar, but much smaller, expansion in cell numbers occurs after exposure to a comparable dilution of normal chick allantoic fluid. In the control group, this increase in lymph node size is totally prevented by the in vivo depletion of CD4+ T cells whereas there is only a 50% reduction in the virus-infected mice. The lymphocyte component of the cellular exudate in the lungs of infected mice is dominated by activated, CD8+ T cells, which are also prevalent in the mediastinal lymph nodes. Elimination of the CD4+ subset does not greatly diminish the severity of this inflammatory process. The CD4-depleted mice clear the virus from the lung, and there is little effect on the frequency of virus-specific, cytotoxic T lymphocyte precursors in either the lymph node or the lung. Substantial involvement of CD4+ T cells is not essential for the development of effective cell-mediated immunity in mice with influenza. 相似文献

The developing immune response in the lymph nodes of mice infected with influenza virus has both Th1- and Th2-type characteristics. Modulation of the interactions between antigen-presenting cells and T cells is one mechanism that may alter the quality of the immune response. We have previously shown that the ability of dendritic cells (DC) to stimulate the proliferation of alloreactive T cells is changed by influenza virus due to viral neuraminidase (NA) activity. Here we show that DC infected with influenza virus A/PR/8/34 (PR8) stimulate T cells to produce different types of cytokines in a dose-dependent manner. Optimal amounts of the Th1-type cytokines interleukin-2 (IL-2) and gamma interferon (IFN-gamma) were produced from T cells stimulated by DC infected with low doses of PR8, while the Th2-type cytokines IL-4 and IL-10 were produced only in response to DC infected with high doses of PR8. IL-2 and IFN-gamma levels corresponded with T-cell proliferation and were dependent on the activity of viral NA on the DC surface. In contrast, IL-4 secretion required the treatment of T cells with NA. Since viral particles were released only from DC that are infected with high doses of PR8, our results suggest that viral NA on newly formed virus particles desialylates T-cell surface molecules to facilitate a Th2-type response. These results suggest that the activity of NA may contribute to the mixed Th-type response observed during influenza virus infection. 相似文献

Directed release of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) into the cleft of the virological synapse that can form between infected and uninfected T cells, for example, in lymph nodes, is thought to contribute to the systemic spread of this virus. In contrast, influenza virus, which causes local infections, is shed into the airways of the respiratory tract from free surfaces of epithelial cells. We now demonstrate that such differential release of HIV-1 and influenza virus is paralleled, at the subcellular level, by viral assembly at different microsegments of the plasma membrane of HeLa cells. HIV-1, but not influenza virus, buds through microdomains containing the tetraspanins CD9 and CD63. Consequently, the anti-CD9 antibody K41, which redistributes its antigen and also other tetraspanins to cell-cell adhesion sites, interferes with HIV-1 but not with influenza virus release. Altogether, these data strongly suggest that the bimodal egress of these two pathogenic viruses, like their entry into target cells, is guided by specific sets of host cell proteins. 相似文献

The low precursor frequency of individual virus-specific CD8(+) T cells in a naive host makes the early events of CD8(+) T cell activation, proliferation, and differentiation in response to viral infection a challenge to identify. We have therefore examined the response of naive CD8(+) T cells to pulmonary influenza virus infection with a murine adoptive transfer model using hemagglutinin-specific TCR transgenic CD8(+) T cells. Initial activation of CD8(+) T cells occurs during the first 3 days postinfection exclusively within the draining lymph nodes. Acquisition of CTL effector functions, including effector cytokine and granule-associated protease expression, occurs in the draining lymph nodes and differentially correlates with cell division. Division of activated CD8(+) T cells within the draining lymph nodes occurs in an asynchronous manner between days 3 and 4 postinfection. Despite the presence of Ag for several days within the draining lymph nodes, dividing T cells do not appear to maintain contact with residual Ag. After multiple cell divisions, CD8(+) T cells exit the draining lymph nodes and migrate to the infected lung. Activated CD8(+) T cells also disseminate throughout lymphoid tissue including the spleen and distal lymph nodes following their emigration from draining lymph nodes. These results demonstrate an important role for draining lymph nodes in orchestrating T cell responses during a local infection of a discrete organ to generate effector CD8(+) T cells capable of responding to infection and seeding peripheral lymphoid tissues. 相似文献

Sequential activation of CD8+ T cells in the draining lymph nodes in response to pulmonary virus infection 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

We have used a TCR-transgenic CD8+ T cell adoptive transfer model to examine the tempo of T cell activation and proliferation in the draining lymph nodes (DLN) in response to respiratory virus infection. The T cell response in the DLN differed for mice infected with different type A influenza strains with the onset of T cell activation/proliferation to the A/JAPAN virus infection preceding the A/PR8 response by 12-24 h. This difference in T cell activation/proliferation correlated with the tempo of accelerated respiratory DC (RDC) migration from the infected lungs to the DLN in response to influenza virus infection, with the migrant RDC responding to the A/JAPAN infection exhibiting a more rapid accumulation in the lymph nodes (i.e., peak migration for A/JAPAN at 18 h, A/PR8 at 24-36 h). Furthermore, in vivo administration of blocking anti-CD62L Ab at various time points before/after infection revealed that the virus-specific CD8+ T cells entered the DLN and activated in a sequential "conveyor belt"-like fashion. These results indicate that the tempo of CD8+ T cell activation/proliferation after viral infection is dependent on the tempo of RDC migration to the DLN and that T cell activation occurs in an ordered sequential fashion. 相似文献

Influenza A virus is the causative agent of an acute inflammatory disease of the airway. Although Abs can prevent infection, disease and death can be prevented by T cell-mediated immunity. Recently, we showed that protection against lethal influenza A (PR8/34) virus infection is mediated by central memory CD8 T cells (T(CM)). In this study, using relB(-/-) mice we began to investigate the role of bone marrow (BM)-derived dendritic cells (DCs) in the mechanism of protection. We found that in the absence of functional DCs, memory CD8 T cells specific for the nucleoprotein epitope (NP(366-374)) fail to protect even after adoptive transfer into naive recipients. Through an analysis of Ag uptake, activation of memory CD8 T cells, and display of peptide/MHC complex by DCs in draining LNs and spleen early after virus infection, we established that lack of protection is associated with defective Ag presentation by BM-derived DCs and defective homing of memory T cells in the lymph nodes draining the airway tract. Collectively, the data suggest that protection against the influenza A virus requires that memory CD8 T cells be reactivated by Ag presented by BM-derived DCs in the lymph nodes draining the site of infection. They also imply that protection depends both on the characteristics of systemic adaptive immunity and on the coordinated interplay between systemic and local immunity. 相似文献

The role of the reactive oxygen species-producing NADPH oxidase family of enzymes in the pathology of influenza A virus infection remains enigmatic. Previous reports implicated NADPH oxidase 2 in influenza A virus-induced inflammation. In contrast, NADPH oxidase 1 (Nox1) was reported to decrease inflammation in mice within 7 days post-influenza A virus infection. However, the effect of NADPH oxidase 1 on lethality and adaptive immunity after influenza A virus challenge has not been explored. Here we report improved survival and decreased morbidity in mice with catalytically inactive NADPH oxidase 1 (Nox1*/Y) compared with controls after challenge with A/PR/8/34 influenza A virus. While changes in lung inflammation were not obvious between Nox1*/Y and control mice, we observed alterations in the T cell response to influenza A virus by day 15 post-infection, including increased interleukin-7 receptor-expressing virus-specific CD8+ T cells in lungs and draining lymph nodes of Nox1*/Y, and increased cytokine-producing T cells in lungs and spleen. Furthermore, a greater percentage of conventional and interstitial dendritic cells from Nox1*/Y draining lymph nodes expressed the co-stimulatory ligand CD40 within 6 days post-infection. Results indicate that NADPH oxidase 1 modulates the innate and adaptive cellular immune response to influenza virus infection, while also playing a role in host survival. Results suggest that NADPH oxidase 1 inhibitors may be beneficial as adjunct therapeutics during acute influenza infection. 相似文献

Deletion of the nef gene from simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) strain SIVmac239 yields a virus that undergoes attenuated growth in rhesus macaques and offers substantial protection against a subsequent challenge with some SIV wild-type viruses. We used a recently described model to identify sites in which the SIVDeltanef vaccine strain replicates and elicits immunity in vivo. A high dose of SIVDeltanef was applied to the palatine and lingual tonsils, where it replicated vigorously in this portal of entry at 7 days. Within 2 weeks, the virus had spread and was replicating actively in axillary lymph nodes, primarily in extrafollicular T-cell-rich regions but also in germinal centers. At this time, large numbers of perforin-positive cells, both CD8(+) T cells and CD3-negative presumptive natural killer cells, were found in the tonsil and axillary lymph nodes. The number of infected cells and perforin-positive cells then fell. When autopsy studies were carried out at 26 weeks, only 1 to 3 cells hybridized for viral RNA per section of lymphoid tissue. Nevertheless, infected cells were detected chronically in most lymphoid organs, where the titers of infectious virus could exceed by a log or more the titers in blood. Immunocytochemical labeling at the early active stages of infection showed that cells expressing SIVDeltanef RNA were CD4(+) T lymphocytes. A majority of infected cells were not in the active cell cycle, since 60 to 70% of the RNA-positive cells in tissue sections lacked the Ki-67 cell cycle antigen, and both Ki-67-positive and -negative cells had similar grain counts for viral RNA. Macrophages and dendritic cells, identified with a panel of monoclonal antibodies to these cells, were rarely infected. We conclude that the attenuated growth and protection observed with the SIVDeltanef vaccine strain does not require that the virus shift its characteristic site of replication, the CD4(+) T lymphocyte. In fact, this immunodeficiency virus can replicate actively in CD4(+) T cells prior to being contained by the host, at least in part by a strong killer cell response that is generated acutely in the infected lymph nodes. 相似文献

Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) virions bind to B cells in the peripheral blood and lymph nodes through interactions between CD21 on B cells and complement-complexed virions. B-cell-bound virions have been shown to be highly infectious, suggesting a unique mode of HIV-1 dissemination by B cells circulating between peripheral blood and lymphoid tissues. In order to investigate the relationship between B-cell-bound HIV-1 and viruses found in CD4+ T cells and in plasma, we examined the genetic relationships of HIV-1 found in the blood and lymph nodes of chronically infected patients with heteroduplex mobility and tracking assays and DNA sequence analysis. In samples from 13 of 15 patients examined, HIV-1 variants in peripheral blood-derived B cells were closely related to virus in CD4+ T cells and more divergent from virus in plasma. In samples from five chronically viremic patients for whom analyses were extended to include lymph node-derived HIV-1 isolates, B-cell-associated HIV-1 and CD4+-T-cell-associated HIV-1 in the lymph nodes were equivalent in their divergence from virus in peripheral blood-derived B cells and generally more distantly related to virus in peripheral blood-derived CD4+ T cells. These results indicates virologic cross talk between B cells and CD4+ T cells within the microenvironment of lymphoid tissues and, to a lesser extent, between cells in lymph nodes and the peripheral blood. These findings also indicate that most of the virus in plasma originates from cells other than CD4(+) T cells in the peripheral blood and lymph nodes. 相似文献

The cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) activity of spleen cells from BALB/c (H-2d) mice immunized with the neurotropic JHM strain of mouse hepatitis virus (JHMV) was stimulated in vitro for 7 days. CTL were tested for recognition of target cells infected with either JHMV or vaccinia virus recombinants expressing the four virus structural proteins. Only target cells infected with either JHMV or the vaccinia virus recombinant expressing the JHMV nucleocapsid protein were recognized. Cytotoxic T cell lines were established by limiting dilution from the brains of mice undergoing acute demyelinating encephalomyelitis after infection with JHMV. Twenty of the 22 lines recognized JHMV-infected but not uninfected syngeneic target cells, indicating that they are specific for JHMV. All T-cell lines except one were CD8+. The specificity of the CTL lines was examined by using target cells infected with vaccinia virus recombinants expressing the JHMV nucleocapsid, spike, membrane, and hemagglutinin-esterase structural proteins. Seventeen lines recognized target cells expressing the nucleocapsid protein. Three of the JHMV-specific T-cell lines were unable to recognize target cells expressing any of the JHMV structural proteins, indicating that they are specific for an epitope of a nonstructural protein(s) of JHMV. These data indicate that the nucleocapsid protein induces an immunodominant CTL response. However, no CTL activity specific for the nucleocapsid protein could be detected in either the spleens or cervical lymph nodes of mice 4, 5, 6, or 7 days after intracranial infection, suggesting that the CTL response to JHMV infection within the central nervous system may be induced or expanded locally. 相似文献

Virus-specific CD8(+) T cells play an important role in controlling viral replication during acute primary infection. At this early stage, mucosal tissues represent a major site of viral replication. Therefore, the presence of functional virus-specific CD8(+) effector T cells in the mucosa during primary infection is a key issue in the pathogenesis of infection. In order to evaluate the extent of this response, six rhesus macaques were infected with simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV)mac251 and sacrificed on day 28 following infection. The functional activity of SIV-effector CD8(+) T cells was evaluated by means of a gamma-IFN ELISpot assay with autologous cells expressing SIV env, gag, pol and nef genes as antigen-presenting cells. This evaluation was performed on PBMCs, spleen, peripheral lymph node, gut-associated lymph node and lamina propria lymphocytes isolated from different mucosal sites. In parallel, the cell-associated viral load was quantified in all these tissues. Five macaques had gamma-IFN SIV-specific CD8(+) T cells in PBMCs and/or lymph nodes. However, in these macaques, these CD8(+) T cells were only present in seven mucosal sites out of 24 tested (the lamina propria lymphocytes of the duodenum, jejunum, ileum and colon were evaluated separately for each animal), whereas they were detected in all corresponding gut-associated lymph nodes. In addition, the mean frequency of SIV-specific gamma-IFN-secreting CD8(+) T cells was 117 +/- 228 per 10(6) cells in the lamina propria vs. 958 +/- 1184 in gut associated lymph nodes (P = 0.001). No overall correlation was observed between the CD8(+) T-cell activity and the viral load: among the 17 mucosal sites in which the virus was isolated, no specific activity was detected in 13 sites. In conclusion, these data indicate that the frequencies of SIV-specific gamma-IFN-secreting CD8(+) T cells are low in the mucosa during early primary infection. This may be of importance with regard to the intense viral replication observed in the mucosa at this stage. 相似文献

Reactive changes occurring within lymph nodes draining the subcutaneous site of acute infection with maedi-visna virus (MVV) were studied, and the appearance of infected cells correlated with the immune response. Cells infected with virus were detected in the node by cocultivation from day 4 postinfection (p.i.), with maximum numbers being seen between days 7 and 14, but even then infected cells were rare, with a maximum frequency of 23 50% tissue culture infective doses (TCID50) in 10(6) lymph node cells. At later times, infected cells were still detected, but their numbers fell to 1 to 2 TCID50 per 10(6) cells. Virus-specific CD8+ cytotoxic T-cell precursors (CTLp) were isolated from infected nodes from day 10 p.i. onwards, and T-cell proliferative responses to MVV were first detected on day 7 and consistently detected after day 18. Histological analysis showed a vigorous immune response in the node. There was a marked blast reaction in the T-cell-rich zones, which was greatest at the time when the number of virally infected cells was at its height. At this stage, large numbers of plasma cells were seen in the medullary cords, indicating that extensive T-cell-dependent B-cell activation was occurring in the T-cell-rich zones. Germinal centers were prominent shortly after the onset of the T-zone response and were still present at 40 days p.i. Phenotype studies of isolated lymph node cells failed to detect major changes in the proportion or phenotype of macrophages, CD1+ interdigitating cells, and CD4+ or CD8+ T cells despite the fact that CD8+ lymphoblasts form a major population leaving the node in efferent lymph. This suggests that there is a balanced increase in the number of all cell types in response to the virus within the node and selective migration of CD8+ lymphoblasts containing virus-specific CTLp from the node. Virus-specific immune responses are therefore present within the node when infectious virus isolation is maximal, but cellular immunity may act to control the level of infection from day 18 onwards. 相似文献

During primary varicella-zoster virus (VZV) infection, it is presumed that virus is transmitted from mucosal sites to regional lymph nodes, where T cells become infected. The cell type responsible for VZV transport from the mucosa to the lymph nodes has not been defined. In this study, we assessed the susceptibility of human monocyte-derived dendritic cells to infection with VZV. Dendritic cells were inoculated with the VZV strain Schenke and assessed by flow cytometry for VZV and dendritic cell (CD1a) antigen expression. In five replicate experiments, 34.4% +/- 6.6% (mean +/- SEM) of CD1a(+) cells were also VZV antigen positive. Dendritic cells were also shown to be susceptible to VZV infection by the detection of immediate-early (IE62), early (ORF29), and late (gC) gene products in CD1a(+) dendritic cells. Infectious virus was recovered from infected dendritic cells, and cell-to-cell contact was required for transmission of virus to permissive fibroblasts. VZV-infected dendritic cells showed no significant decrease in cell viability or evidence of apoptosis and did not exhibit altered cell surface levels of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I, MHC class II, CD86, CD40, or CD1a. Significantly, when autologous T lymphocytes were incubated with VZV-infected dendritic cells, VZV antigens were readily detected in CD3(+) T lymphocytes and infectious virus was recovered from these cells. These data provide the first evidence that dendritic cells are permissive to VZV and that dendritic cell infection can lead to transmission of virus to T lymphocytes. These findings have implications for our understanding of how virus may be disseminated during primary VZV infection. 相似文献

Mice infected with LP-BM5 murine leukemia virus develop lymphadenopathy, splenomegaly, hypergammaglobulinemia, and profound immunosuppression associated with enhanced susceptibility to infection. In this study, molecular genetic analyses of spleen and lymph node cells from infected mice showed the early course of disease was associated with polyclonal proliferations of both B and T cells but that by 12 wk oligoclonal expansions of B or T cells could be detected. When near death, the mice were killed and almost all exhibited clonally restricted populations of B cells, and continuous cultures of B lineage cells were established from three of 19 mice. Histologically, lymph nodes with polyclonal lymphoproliferative lesions were indistinguishable from nodes with clonally restricted populations of cells. However, aggressive immunoblastic lymphomas of characteristic morphology were seen in nonlymphoid organs, particularly in the brain. The demonstration of terminal B cell lymphomas in murine AIDS extends the similarities between this syndrome and AIDS in humans. 相似文献

Elevated CD4 T-cell turnover may lead to the exhaustion of the immune system during human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) and simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) infections. However, this hypothesis remains controversial. Most studies of this subject have concerned the blood, and information about the lymph nodes is rare and controversial. We used Ki67 expression to measure cycling T cells in the blood and lymph nodes of uninfected macaques and of macaques infected with a pathogenic SIVmac251 strain or with a nonpathogenic SIVmac251Deltanef clone. During the asymptomatic phase of infection, the number of cycling CD8(+) T cells progressively increased (two- to eightfold) both in the blood and in the lymph nodes of macaques infected with SIVmac251. This increase was correlated with viral replication and the progression to AIDS. In contrast, no increases in the numbers of cycling CD4(+) T cells were found in the blood or lymph nodes of macaques infected with the pathogenic SIVmac251 strain in comparison with SIVmac251Deltanef-infected or healthy macaques during this chronic phase. However, the lymph nodes of pre-AIDS stage SIVmac251-infected macaques contained more cycling CD4(+) T cells (low baseline CD4(+)-T-cell counts in the blood). Taken together, these results show that the profiles of CD4(+)- and CD8(+)-T-cell dynamics are distinct both in the lymph nodes and blood and suggest that higher CD4(+)-T-cell proliferation at the onset of AIDS may lead to the exhaustion of the immune system. 相似文献

Influenza infection stimulates protective host immune responses but paradoxically enhances lung indoleamine 2,3 dioxygenase (IDO) activity, an enzyme that suppresses helper/effector T cells and activates Foxp3-lineage regulatory CD4 T cells (Tregs). Influenza A/PR/8/34 (PR8) infection stimulated rapid elevation of IDO activity in lungs and lung-draining mediastinal lymph nodes (msLNs). Mice lacking intact IDO1 genes (IDO1-KO mice) exhibited significantly lower morbidity after sub-lethal PR8 infection, and genetic or pharmacologic IDO ablation led to much faster recovery after virus clearance. More robust influenza-specific effector CD8 T cell responses manifested in lungs of PR8-infected IDO1-KO mice, though virus clearance rates were unaffected by IDO ablation. Similar outcomes manifested in mice infected with a less virulent influenza A strain (X31). IDO induction in X31-infected lungs was dependent on IFN type II (IFNγ) signaling and was restricted to non-hematopoietic cells, while redundant IFN type 1 or type II signaling induced IDO exclusively in hematopoietic cells from msLNs. Memory T cells generated in X31-primed IDO1-KO mice protected mice from subsequent challenge with lethal doses of PR8 (100×LD50). However recall T cell responses were less robust in lung interstitial tissues, and classic dominance of TCR Vβ8.3 chain usage amongst memory CD8+ T cells specific for influenza nucleoprotein (NP366) did not manifest in IDO1-KO mice. Thus, influenza induced IDO activity in lungs enhanced morbidity, slowed recovery, restrained effector T cell responses in lungs and shaped memory T cell repertoire generation, but did not attenuate virus clearance during primary influenza A infection. 相似文献

Parenteral immunization of mice with a given strain of type A influenza virus generates two subpopulations of cytotoxic T cells in the in vivo primary response. One subpopulation is specific for the immunizing virus; the other subpopulation cross-reacts with target cells infected with type A influenza virus of a different subtype. Both subpopulations are specific for target cells infected with type A influenza virus and optimally lyse only infected targets which are syngeneic at the H-2 gene locus. In vitro stimulation of previously primed spleen cells with cells infected with homologous virus generates both subpopulations in the secondary cytotoxic response. However, in vitro stimulation of primed cells with cells infected with heterologous type A virus of a different subtype specifically selects for the cross-reactive T-cell population. These results are discussed in terms of current models for T-cell recognition of virus-infected cells and possible mechanisms for cross-reaction between type A influenza viruses of different subtypes at the level of cytotoxic T cells. 相似文献
