Severe combined immunodeficient (SCID) mice lack both functional T and B cells. These mice develop chronic rotavirus infection following an oral inoculation with the epizootic diarrhea of infant mice (EDIM) rotavirus. Reconstitution of rotavirus-infected SCID mice with T lymphocytes from immunocompetent mice allows an evaluation of a role of T-cell-mediated immunity in clearing chronic rotavirus infection. Complete rotavirus clearance was demonstrated in C.B-17/scid mice 7 to 9 days after the transfer of immune CD8+ splenic T lymphocytes from histocompatible BALB/c mice previously immunized intraperitoneally with the EDIM-w strain of murine rotavirus. The virus clearance mediated by T-cell transfer was restricted to H-2d-bearing T cells and occurred in the absence of rotavirus-specific antibody as determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, neutralization, immunohistochemistry, and radioimmunoprecipitation. Temporary clearance of rotavirus was observed after the transfer of immune CD8+ T cells isolated from the intestinal mucosa (intraepithelial lymphocytes [IELs]) or the spleens of BALB/c mice previously infected with EDIM by the oral route. Chronic virus shedding was transiently eliminated 7 to 11 days after spleen cell transfer and 11 to 12 days after IEL transfer. However, recurrence of rotavirus infection was detected 1 to 8 days later in all but one SCID recipient receiving cells from orally immunized donors. The viral clearance was mediated by IELs that were both Thy1+ and CD8+. These data demonstrated that the clearance of chronic rotavirus infection in SCID mice can be mediated by immune CD8+ T lymphocytes and that this clearance can occur in the absence of virus-specific antibodies. 相似文献

The immune response of lymphocytes to subcutaneously administered pneumococcal vaccine was studied in five patients without spleens and in five healthy subjects. Seven days after immunisation circulating B cells synthesising IgG antipneumococcal capsular polysaccharides (anti-PCP) appeared in both groups. Twenty one days after vaccination this B cell population had disappeared and a B cell subset which secreted IgM and IgG anti-PCP in the presence of pokeweed mitogen was detected in the normal but not in the splenectomised subjects. In the splenectomised group polyclonal IgM synthesis induced by pokeweed mitogen was defective. It was concluded that the early events of the immune response to PCP may be mediated by lymph nodes but that, later, the spleen acquires a central role in producing lymphocyte subsets capable of synthesising specific antibodies and that this might explain the increased sensitivity of splenectomised subjects to pneumococcal infection. 相似文献

In a previous study, it was demonstrated that T cells from adult individuals were able to suppress the transformation of B cells after infection by EBV. In this paper, it is shown that this suppression is mediated by interferon. Thus, the suppression is abrogated by anti-interferon serum and mimicked by human leukocyte interferon. Furthermore, the interferon is released in response to the virus-infected B cell, not the virus alone. The relevance of these results to previous clinical evidence, indicating a role for interferon in recovery from EBV infection, is discussed. Interferon will also suppress the transformation of adult B lymphocytes by the mitogen phytohemagglutinin (PHA). However, interferon at concentrations 2 to 3 orders of magnitude higher was unable to suppress the transformation of neonatal B lymphocytes by either EBV or PHA. These experiments suggest that EBV and PHA induced transformation share a common interferon sensitive step. Lastly, the resistance of newborn lymphocytes to the protective effect of interferon may be an important consideration in the application of interferon as an antiviral or anti-tumor agent. 相似文献

B and T lymphocytes regulated by idiotype anti-idiotype interactions inhibit delayed-type hypersensitivity to BCG in mice 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Mice infected subcutaneously with 2 X 10(7) CFU of Mycobacterium bovis strain BCG (BCG) were able to mount a specific DTH response, whereas mice infected intravenously with the same dose of microorganisms were not. The suppression turned out to be mediated by id+ anti-PPD B lymphocytes, which arose very early during the infectious process and induced anti-id B lymphocytes. These cells were found at Day 4 after infection and exerted their effect by activating antigen-specific suppressor T lymphocytes, which affected the efferent phase of the DTH response. These results clearly indicate that the activation of a complex immunosuppressive circuit represents a mechanism by which BCG may interfere with the host's immune response already during the very early phases of infection. 相似文献

Both in vitro and in vivo murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV) infection depressed the responses of lymphocytes to both B and T cell mitogens. The possibilities that macrophages or nonspecific T cell inhibition of B cells might account for the depressed responses were eliminated. In vitro data suggested that B cell responses are more susceptible to this depression than T cell responses. The possibility that the depression of T cell responses is not a direct effect of viral infection of lymphocytes is discussed. To investigate further the interaction between B and T lymphocytes and MCMV, mice with B and T cell deficiences were studied. A comparison of the susceptibility of athymic Nu/Nu mice and T cell competent Nu/+ littermates to MCMV showed that the LD50 for Nu/Nu mice is 10-fold lower than that for Nu/+ mice, but Nu/+ mice given an LD50 of virus died much sooner after infection than Nu/Nu mice given an LD50. Pathogenic mechanisms responsible for death may be different in these two groups of mice. Similarly the MCMV LD50 for B cell-deficient mice (treated with goat anti-mouse IgM serum) was 10-fold lower than the LD50 for mice treated with normal goat serum, but given an LD50 of virus, the latter died sooner after infection than the former. In contrast, there was little difference between the LD50 or time of death after MCMV infection of CBA x DBA F1 male mice (which are deficient in their response to thymic independent antigens) and their normal littermates, the CBA x DBA F1 female mice. 相似文献

Immunosuppressor activity of considerable potency and complexity was generated during the course of chronic, progressive infection of C3H/Anf mice by Mycobacterium lepraemurium. From the 5th through 10th week after inoculation, spleen cells from infected mice mildly but reproducibly suppressed the direct plaque-forming cell response of normal spleen cell cultures to sheep erythrocytes. Suppression at this stage of infection was mediated by cells with macrophage-like characteristics. A marked increase in splenic suppressor activity at 10 to 11 weeks was associated with the appearance of a second suppressor cell subpopulation composed of T lymphocytes. The appearance of these cells was closely related in time to the onset of rapid splenic enlargement and a loss of cutaneous delayed type hypersensitivity to antigens of M. lepraemurium in mice at 10 to 11 weeks of infection. Suppressor cells were not present in peripheral lymph nodes until terminal infection at 22 to 25 weeks. Suppressor spleen cells depressed the T-dependent antibody response most severely, but there was also a direct effect upon B cells as shown by moderate suppression of responses to TNP-LPS and DNP-Ficoll. Spleen cells from 14-week-infected mice generated a soluble suppressor factor(s) that induces depression of moderate severity, however, the immunosuppression by intact cells was far greater. 相似文献

Viruses such as lactate dehydrogenase-elevating virus and adenovirus induce in vivo a polyclonal activation of murine B lymphocytes, followed by a marked increase in the production of immunoglobulin G2a (IgG2a). The role of T lymphocytes in this phenomenon was studied by injection of an anti-CD4 monoclonal antibody able to inhibit the T-helper function. This treatment profoundly depressed the production of IgG2a, whereas it had no effect on the proliferation of B cells. Activated B cells obtained from such infected and treated mice remained able to produce various immunoglobulin isotypes after exposure to an appropriate stimulus. In particular, gamma interferon, which is known to be secreted after viral infection, induced the production of IgG2a. These observations support the hypothesis that the influence of viruses on the switch of immunoglobulins is mediated by T-helper lymphocytes. 相似文献

Mouse aggregated IgG2b, continuously present in mouse spleen cell cultures, markedly depressed, in a dose-dependent fashion, the direct plaque-forming cell response to sheep red blood cells (SRBC, T-dependent) and to DNP-Ficoll (T-independent). Pretreatment of mouse spleen cells with IgG2b for 30 min at 4 °C prior to culturing also markedly depressed the response to both antigens. Delayed addition of IgG2b to SRBC-immunized cultures caused an early and a late depression separated by a period when no significant depression was seen. Using DNP-Ficoll as antigen the late-occurring depression was observed only in Mishell-Dutton cultures, while it was not seen in microcultures. These data support a regulatory role of Fc receptors on the activation of B lymphocytes by antigens and suggest that Fc receptors may be important in at least two events during the differentiation of B lymphocytes into plasma cells: an early, short lived one and a later, longer-lasting event. 相似文献

The control of B cell expansion has been thought to be solely regulated by T lymphocytes. We show in this study that Trypanosoma cruzi infection induces up-regulation of both Fas and Fas ligand (FasL) molecules on B cells and renders them susceptible to B cell-B cell killing (referred to as fratricide throughout this paper) mediated via Fas/FasL. Moreover, by in vivo administration of anti-FasL blocking mAb we demonstrate that Fas-mediated B cell apoptosis is an ongoing process during this parasitic infection. We also provide evidence that B cells that have switched to IgG isotype are the preferential targets of B cell fratricide. More strikingly, this death pathway selectively affects IgG(+) B cells reactive to parasite but not self Ags. Parasite-specific but not self-reactive B cells triggered during this response are rescued after either in vitro or in vivo FasL blockade. Fratricide among parasite-specific IgG(+) B lymphocytes could impair the immune control of T. cruzi and possibly other chronic protozoan parasites. Our results raise the possibility that the blockade of Fas/FasL interaction in the B cell compartment of T. cruzi-infected mice may provide a means for enhancing antiparasitic humoral immune response without affecting host tolerance. 相似文献

Herpesvirus sylvilagus infection of cottontail rabbits (Sylvilagus floridanus) was studied as a model of herpesvirus-induced lymphoproliferative disorders. Leukocytosis, splenomegaly, proliferation of T cells and virus production by lymphocytes characterized this infectious mononucleosis-like disease. Approximately two copies of circular herpesvirus sylvilagus genomes per cell were detected in spleen cells at 2 weeks postinfection, and circular genomes could still be observed after 4 months. Circular viral genomes were found in both B and T lymphocytes. Small amounts of linear viral DNA (0.1 to 0.3 copies per cell) were also detected in both B and T cells. These results indicated that the virus did not replicate in the majority of lymphocytes in vivo. Herpesvirus sylvilagus infection in cottontail rabbits could be useful as a model for studying the complex virus-host relationships of lymphotropic herpesviruses and perhaps as an animal model for Epstein-Barr virus infection in humans. 相似文献

The immunity of BALB.B mice to syngeneic Gross murine leukemia virus (MuLV)-induced B.GV cells was studied at various times after infection by Trypanosoma cruzi. BALB.B mice chronically infected by the parasite do not develop an effective immune response against B.GV tumor cells, and B.GV tumor growth in vivo is consequently facilitated. The tumor-specific cytolytic T lymphocyte (CTL) compartment in these mice was studied in vitro because CTL are known to participate actively in syngeneic tumor rejection. These analyses showed that: a) CTL differentiation is suppressed in mice with chronic T. cruzi infections; b) suppression is at the level of CTL precursor cell activation; c) suppression is not antigen-specific; and d) suppression is mediated by macrophages and Lyt-2+ T lymphocytes. 相似文献

The four dengue virus (DENV) serotypes cause dengue fever and dengue hemorrhagic fever/dengue shock syndrome. Although severe disease has been associated with heterotypic secondary DENV infection, most secondary DENV infections are asymptomatic or result in classic DF. The role of cross-reactive immunity in mediating cross-protection against secondary heterotypic DENV infection is not well understood. DENV infection of IFN-α/β and IFN-γ receptor-deficient (AG129) mice reproduces key features of human disease. We previously demonstrated a role in cross-protection for pre-existing cross-reactive Abs, maintained by long-lived plasma cells. In this study, we use a sequential infection model, infecting AG129 mice with DENV-1, followed by DENV-2 6-8 wk later. We find that increased DENV-specific avidity during acute secondary heterotypic infection is mediated by cross-reactive memory B cells, as evidenced by increased numbers of DENV-1-specific cells by ELISPOT and higher avidity against DENV-1 of supernatants from polyclonally stimulated splenocytes isolated from mice experiencing secondary DENV-2 infection. However, increased DENV-specific avidity is not associated with increased DENV-specific neutralization, which appears to be mediated by naive B cells. Adoptive transfer of DENV-1-immune B and T cells into naive mice prior to secondary DENV-2 infection delayed mortality. Mice depleted of T cells developed signs of disease, but recovered after secondary DENV infection. Overall, we found that protective cross-reactive Abs are secreted by both long-lived plasma cells and memory B cells and that both cross-reactive B cells and T cells provide protection against a secondary heterotypic DENV infection. Understanding the protective immunity that develops naturally against DENV infection may help design future vaccines. 相似文献

Epstein-Barr virus infection of polarized tongue and nasopharyngeal epithelial cells 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) initially enters the body through the oropharyngeal mucosa and subsequently infects B lymphocytes through their CD21 (CR2) complement receptor. Mechanisms of EBV entry into and release from epithelial cells are poorly understood. To study EBV infection in mucosal oropharyngeal epithelial cells, we established human polarized tongue and pharyngeal epithelial cells in culture. We show that EBV enters these cells through three CD21-independent pathways: (i) by direct cell-to-cell contact of apical cell membranes with EBV-infected lymphocytes; (ii) by entry of cell-free virions through basolateral membranes, mediated in part through an interaction between beta1 or alpha5beta1 integrins and the EBV BMRF-2 protein; and (iii) after initial infection, by virus spread directly across lateral membranes to adjacent epithelial cells. Release of progeny virions from polarized cells occurs from both their apical and basolateral membranes. These data indicate that multiple approaches to prevention of epithelial infection with EBV will be necessary. 相似文献

Lyme arthritis following infection with Borrelia burgdorferi (B. burgdorferi) is associated with the presence of bacteria in the joint, but the mechanism of persistent infection in the presence of specific antibodies and lymphocytes remains unknown. To investigate how an infection with B. burgdorferi might influence the local immune response in the joint, we examined the expression of cell adhesion molecules, human leucocyte antigens and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS)-1 and -2 in human synovial cells after infection with B. burgdorferi in vitro. Synovial cells are known to influence the function of local immunologic effector cells and play a key role in the pannus formation of erosive arthritis. It has been shown previously that B. burgdorferi can persist in the cytosol of human synovial cells. The expression of the surface molecules ICAM-1, VCAM-1, HLA-class-I and -class-II and the cytosolic production of iNOS-1 and -2 in synovial cells was measured by flow cytometry for up to 5 days after infection with B. burgdorferi. A significant, lasting downregulation of surface ICAM-1 could be demonstrated on synovial cells, whereas no significant changes were seen in the expression of VCAM-1, HLA-class-I and -II, and of iNOS-1 and -2. To determine the biological significance of this downregulation an in vitro adhesion assay using peripheral blood mononuclear cells was developed. After infection with B. burgdorferi a significantly smaller number of mononuclear cells was adhering to the synovial cell monolayer. Adhesion of peripheral mononuclear cells was shown to be in part mediated by ICAM-1 by using a blocking mononuclear antibody against ICAM-1. Downregulation of ICAM-1 on synovial cells due to infection with B. burgdorferi might suppress the local immunosurveillance and might help the bacteria to persist in joint cells in vivo. 相似文献

Depletion of T and B lymphocytes during malarial infections 总被引:18,自引:0,他引:18
Malarial infections have been reported to cause depression of the immune response to a series of unrelated antigens. In an attempt to elucidate the nature of this phenomenon we studied the cellular composition of the lymphoid organs during the course of Plasmodium berghei infections in mice. The different categories of lymphocytes in the thymus and lymph nodes were identified by their cell surface markers, using the θ-isoantigen for T cells and the complement receptor for B cells (CRLs). Their percentages were determined by the use of anti-θ serum and rosette formation upon incubation with antibody and complement-coated erythrocytes, respectively. The main findings were (a) a progressive and profound reduction of the thymus weight and of the percentage of T cells in this organ, and (b) a reduction of the number of lymph node cells at a later stage of the infection. This corresponded to a decrease of both CRL and T cells, and a simultaneous increase of a “null cell” population, lacking both θ-antigen and complement receptors. 相似文献

Critical role of corneal Langerhans cells in the CD4- but not CD8-mediated immunopathology in herpes simplex virus-1-infected mouse corneas. 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7

Previous studies have revealed that the RE strain of HSV type 1 (HSV-1) induces a tissue-destructive inflammatory response in the mouse cornea that is mediated by CD4 T lymphocytes, whereas the KOS strain of HSV-1 preferentially activates CD8 T lymphocytes in the cornea. Langerhans cells (LC) normally reside only at the periphery of the cornea but can migrate centripetally after HSV-1 infection. We studied the relative contribution of LC to the corneal inflammation induced by the KOS and RE strains of HSV-1. Ten days after infection, the central one-third of RE HSV-1-infected corneas contained an average of 5.7 LC/high-power field compared with 0.6 LC/high-power field in KOS-infected corneas. We hypothesized that the increased density of LC in RE HSV-1-infected corneas at the time of T lymphocyte infiltration contributed to the preferential activation of CD4 T lymphocytes in these corneas. To test this hypothesis, we gave mice a low dose of UV-B corneal irradiation (150 mJ/cm2) 1 day before infection with HSV-1. UV-B irradiation effectively prevented the migration of LC into the central cornea when measured 10 or 21 days after corneal infection with either HSV-1 strain. UV-B corneal irradiation had no effect on the CTL response to HSV-1 Ag in the regional lymph nodes after corneal infection with KOS or RE HSV-1. The delayed-type hypersensitivity response induced by both strains of virus, when measured 8 and 14 days after corneal infection, was significantly reduced by UV-B irradiation. UV-B irradiation significantly reduced the incidence (p = 0.0023) and severity (p = 0.0008) of corneal stromal disease induced by RE HSV-1 but did not significantly affect the stromal disease induced by KOS HSV-1. To distinguish between the effect of UV-B treatment on the afferent and efferent arms of the Ir in mice, we administered UV-B treatment to one eye, followed 24 h later by RE HSV-1 infection of both eyes. These mice developed a normal delayed-type hypersensitivity response, and stromal inflammation developed normally in the untreated eye. However, stromal inflammation was significantly reduced in the treated eye. Our findings suggest that LC play a critical role in the activation of HSV-reactive CD4 T lymphocytes in the cornea. Moreover, the type of corneal inflammation induced by different strains of HSV-1 may reflect their differential capacity to induce LC migration into the central cornea. 相似文献

A main feature of the common mucosal immune system is that lymphocytes primed in one mucosal inductive site may home to distant mucosal effector sites. However, the mechanisms responsible for such cross-protection remain elusive. To address these we have used a model of local mucosal infection of mice with reovirus. In immunocompetent mice local duodenal priming protected against subsequent respiratory challenge. In the upper respiratory tract this protection appeared to be mainly mediated by specific IgA- and IgG2a-producing B cells, whereas ex vivo active effector memory CTL were found in the lower respiratory tract. In accordance with these findings, clearance of reovirus from the lower respiratory tract, but not from the upper respiratory tract, of infected SCID mice upon transfer of gut-primed lymphocytes depended on the presence of T cells. Taken together this study reveals that intestinal priming leads to protection of both the upper and lower respiratory tracts, however through distinct mechanisms. We suggest that cross-protection in the common mucosal immune system is mediated by trafficking of B cells and effector memory CTL. 相似文献

Some cellular requirements have been examined for the stimulation of lymphocyte production in mouse bone marrow by injected sheep red blood cells (SRBC). The increased genesis of marrow lymphocytes after a single dose of SRBC assayed radioautographically after [3H]thymidine labeling was unimpaired in the marrow of mice treated with anti-IgM antibodies from birth to eliminate B lymphocytes, and in congenitally athymic mice lacking T lymphocytes. However, pretreatment of mice with silica to depress macrophage function completely abolished the SRBC effect both on the total lymphocyte production and on the number of B and null small lymphocytes in the marrow. Comparative studies were performed on the thymus and spleen. The results demonstrate that the stimulation of marrow lymphocyte production by SRBC is mediated by a silica-sensitive mechanism, does not require B or T lymphocytes, and is independent of the humoral immune response. Thus, extrinsic agents may amplify the production of primary B cells and other lymphocytes in the bone marrow by an antigen-nonspecific mechanism, putatively mediated by macrophages. 相似文献

In this paper, we characterize the antigen recognized by the monoclonal antibody B73.1 and the modification occurring at the membrane of the positive cells after interaction with the antibody. The B73.1-defined antigen is a protein of 50,000 to 72,000 daltons that is sensitive to pronase but not to trypsin treatment. B73.1 antibody, and its F(ab')2 fragment, directly block, at high concentrations, the binding of IgG antibody-sensitized erythrocytes to the Fc receptors (FcR) of a subpopulation of lymphocytes and neutrophils. B73.1 antibody dissociates rapidly from the positive cells, but concomitant modulation of both B73.1 antigen and FcR is induced when cells are incubated in the continuous presence of antibody or when B73.1 antibody is cross-linked at the cell membrane with an anti-mouse immunoglobulin antiserum. Reaction of lymphocytes with immune complexes also induces modulation of both FcR and B73.1 antigen, without affecting the expression of other antigens on the positive cells. The possibility that the antigen is internalized and digested by the cell after reaction with the antibody is discussed. B73.1 antibody inhibits antibody-dependent cytotoxicity mediated by lymphocytes (K cells) and neutrophils, whereas it does not affect spontaneous cytotoxicity of NK cells. These results suggest the B73.1-defined antigen might be the FcR or a structure closely related to it on K/NK cells. 相似文献

Phosphonoacetic acid disodium salt (PAA) inhibited the transformation of human cord blood lymphocytes by Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) at concentrations of 50-100 microgram/ml. At these concentrations, PAA had no effect on the multiplication of EBV transformed human lymphoblastoid cells or on the survival of human cord blood lymphocytes. The transformation of human cord blood lymphocytes by the B95-8 strain of EBV was measured by 3H-thymidine uptake, 5 days or more after infection. The degree of inhibition of transformation was correlated with the relation between the input of EBV and the concentration of PAA in the experiment. PAA inhibited the transformation even when added 24 h after EBV infection, but had no effect when added 48 h after EBV infection. The inhibitory effect of PAA could be overcome by its removal and normal 3H-thymidine uptake was restored even after 6 days of inhibition. The specificity of the inhibitory effect on EBV induced transformation of human cord blood lymphocytes is discussed. 相似文献
