The mechanisms by which CD8+ T cells mediate immunity against bacterial pathogens remain largely unknown. Perforin-dependent cytolysis plays a role, but is not required for CD8+ T cell-mediated immunity against Listeria monocytogenes. TNF is essential for CD8+ T cell immunity to L. monocytogenes, but the cellular source of TNF is undefined. TNF-deficient and TNF/perforin double-deficient mice were used to generate CD8+ T cells specific for an L. monocytogenes-derived Ag. Wild-type and TNF-deficient CD8+ T cells mediated antilisterial immunity in wild-type but not TNF-deficient host mice, revealing that CD8+ T cell-derived TNF is not required for CD8+ T cell-mediated antilisterial immunity, but demonstrating a role for TNF derived from other cell types. TNF/perforin double-deficient CD8+ T cells mediated antilisterial immunity in the liver, but not in the spleen, of wild-type recipient mice, suggesting that perforin-independent immunity in the spleen requires CD8+ T cell-derived TNF. 相似文献

Adaptive immunity and enhanced CD8+ T cell response to Listeria monocytogenes in the absence of perforin and IFN-gamma 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Single Ag-specific CD8+ T cells from IFN-gamma-deficient (GKO) or perforin-deficient (PKO) mice provide substantial immunity against murine infection with Listeria monocytogenes. To address the potential for redundancy between perforin and IFN-gamma as CD8+ T cell effector mechanisms, we generated perforin/IFN-gamma (PKO/GKO) double-deficient mice. PKO/GKO-derived CD8+ T cells specific for the immunodominant listeriolysin O (LLO91-99) epitope provide immunity to LM infection similar to that provided by Ag-matched wild-type (WT) CD8+ T cells in the liver but reduced in the spleen. Strikingly, polyclonal CD8+ T cells from immunized PKO/GKO mice were approximately 100-fold more potent in reducing bacterial numbers than the same number of polyclonal CD8+ T cells from immunized WT mice. This result is probably quantitative, because the frequency of the CD8+ T cell response against the immunodominant LLO91-99 epitope is >4.5-fold higher in PKO/GKO mice than WT mice at 7 days after identical immunizations. Moreover, PKO/GKO mice can be immunized by a single infection with attenuated Listeria to resist >80,000-fold higher challenges with virulent organisms than naive PKO/GKO mice. These data demonstrate that neither perforin nor IFN-gamma is required for the development or expression of adaptive immunity to LM. In addition, the results suggest the potential for perforin and IFN-gamma to regulate the magnitude of the CD8+ T cell response to infection. 相似文献

One goal of immunization is to generate memory CD8 T cells of sufficient quality and quantity to confer protection against infection. It has been shown that memory CD8 T cell differentiation in vivo is controlled, at least in part, by the amount and duration of infection, Ag, and inflammatory cytokines present early after the initiation of the response. In this study, we used models of anti-vectorial immunity to investigate the impact of pre-existing immunity on the development and differentiation of vector-induced primary CD8 T cell responses. We showed that existing CD8 T cell memory influences the magnitude of naive CD8 T cell responses. However, the differentiation of newly recruited (either TCR-transgenic or endogenous) primary CD8 T cells into populations with the phenotype (CD62L(hi), CD27(hi), KLRG-1(low)) and function (tissue distribution, Ag-driven proliferation, cytokine production) of long-term memory was facilitated when they were primed in the presence of vector-specific memory CD8 T cells of the same or unrelated specificity. Therefore, these data suggested that the presence of anti-vectorial immunity impacts the rate of differentiation of vector-induced naive CD8 T cells, a notion with important implications for the design of future vaccination strategies. 相似文献

Whether IFN-gamma contributes to the per-cell protective capacity of memory CD8(+) T cells against Listeria monocytogenes (LM) has not been formally tested. In this study, we generated LM Ag-specific memory CD8(+) T cells via immunization of wild-type (WT) and IFN-gamma-deficient (gamma knockout (GKO)) mice with LM peptide-coated dendritic cells and compared them phenotypically and functionally. Immunization of WT and GKO mice resulted in memory CD8(+) T cells that were similar in number, functional avidity, TCR repertoire use, and memory phenotype. The protective capacity of memory CD8(+) T cells from immunized WT and GKO mice was evaluated after adoptive transfer of equal numbers of WT or GKO cells into naive BALB/c mice followed by LM challenge. The adoptively transferred CD8(+) T cells from GKO donors exhibited a decreased ability to reduce bacterial numbers in the organs of recipient mice when compared with an equivalent number of Ag-matched WT CD8(+) T cells. This deficiency was most evident early (day 3) after infection if a relatively low infectious dose was used; however, transferring fewer memory CD8(+) T cells or increasing the LM challenge dose revealed a more pronounced defect in protective immunity mediated by the CD8(+) T cells from GKO mice. Our studies identified a decrease in Ag-specific target cell lysis in vivo by CD8(+) T cells from GKO mice as the mechanism for the decreased protective immunity after LM challenge. Further studies suggest that the lack of IFN-gamma production by the Ag-specific CD8 T cells themselves diminishes target cell sensitivity to cytolysis, thereby reducing the lytic potency of IFN-gamma-deficient LM-specific memory CD8(+) T cells. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: There is equivocal evidence in the published literature that folic acid supplementation during pregnancy may protect against the common congenital anomalies cleft lip with or without cleft palate (CLP) and cleft palate alone (CP). We undertook this meta-analysis to test the hypothesis that nonsyndromic oral cleft birth prevalences are different for those whose mothers took folic acid-containing supplements and for those whose mothers did not. METHODS: Human studies published in English were identified through MEDLINE, bibliography reviews, and contacting experts in the field. Within strata of prospective and case-control studies, CLP, CP, and all clefts, respectively, were analyzed using either a fixed or random effects model, as appropriate. We assessed for publication bias using Begg and Mazumdar's rank correlation and Egger's regression-based tests. RESULTS: Five prospective studies were analyzed, yielding combined relative risks of 0.51 (95% CI: 0.32, 0.95) for CLP, 1.19 (95% CI: 0.43, 3.28) for CP, and 0.55 (95% CI: 0.32, 0.95) for all clefts. Twelve case-control studies were assessed, which resulted in combined relative risks of 0.77 (95% CI: 0.65, 0.90) for CLP, 0.80 (95% CI: 0.69, 0.93) for CP, and 0.78 (95% CI: 0.71, 0.85) for all clefts. CONCLUSIONS: In aggregate, our results support the hypothesis of a protective effect of folic acid-containing supplement intake during pregnancy on the risk for oral clefts, although this conclusion is tempered by the potential for bias and uncontrolled confounding. 相似文献

The scarcity of water in arid and semiarid regions of the world is a problem that every day increases by climate change. The subsurface drip irrigation (SDI) and changes in population density of plants are alternatives that can be used to make a sustainable use of water. Therefore, the objectives of this study were to determine the combination that allows for an increased corn performance and efficient use of water without losing the quality of forage. Three different irrigation levels were applied through a system of a SDI at three different densities of forage maize plants in an arid region. The results demonstrated that by applying different levels of water, either enough or lack of soil moisture is created, which is directly reflected in crop yield, and its determining variables such as green forage and dry matter yield, and nutritional quality. The irrigation level to a 100% of potential evapotranspiration (PET), at a density of 80000 plants/ha, increased yield of green forage to 57664 kg/ha; crude protein was 8.59%, while the rest of the quality parameters decreased. This study allowed to conclude that the irrigation level was the major factor in the response of the crop. 相似文献

Memory CD8 T cells confer increased protection to immune hosts upon secondary viral, bacterial, and parasitic infections. The level of protection provided depends on the numbers, quality (functional ability), and location of memory CD8 T cells present at the time of infection. While primary memory CD8 T cells can be maintained for the life of the host, the full extent of phenotypic and functional changes that occur over time after initial antigen encounter remains poorly characterized. Here we show that critical properties of circulating primary memory CD8 T cells, including location, phenotype, cytokine production, maintenance, secondary proliferation, secondary memory generation potential, and mitochondrial function change with time after infection. Interestingly, phenotypic and functional alterations in the memory population are not due solely to shifts in the ratio of effector (CD62Llo) and central memory (CD62Lhi) cells, but also occur within defined CD62Lhi memory CD8 T cell subsets. CD62Lhi memory cells retain the ability to efficiently produce cytokines with time after infection. However, while it is was not formally tested whether changes in CD62Lhi memory CD8 T cells over time occur in a cell intrinsic manner or are due to selective death and/or survival, the gene expression profiles of CD62Lhi memory CD8 T cells change, phenotypic heterogeneity decreases, and mitochondrial function and proliferative capacity in either a lymphopenic environment or in response to antigen re-encounter increase with time. Importantly, and in accordance with their enhanced proliferative and metabolic capabilities, protection provided against chronic LCMV clone-13 infection increases over time for both circulating memory CD8 T cell populations and for CD62Lhi memory cells. Taken together, the data in this study reveal that memory CD8 T cells continue to change with time after infection and suggest that the outcome of vaccination strategies designed to elicit protective memory CD8 T cells using single or prime-boost immunizations depends upon the timing between antigen encounters. 相似文献

The extent to which the progeny of one primary memory CD8 T cell differs from the progeny of one naive CD8 T cell of the same specificity remains an unresolved question. To explore cell-autonomous functional differences between naive and memory CD8 T cells that are not influenced by differences in the priming environment, an experimental model has been developed in which physiological numbers of both populations of cells were cotransferred into naive hosts before Ag stimulation. Interestingly, naive CD8 T cells undergo greater expansion in numbers than do primary memory CD8 T cells after various infections or immunizations. The intrinsic ability of one naive CD8 T cell to give rise to more effector CD8 T cells than one memory CD8 T cell is independent of the number and quality of primary memory CD8 T cells present in vivo. The sustained proliferation of newly activated naive CD8 T cells contributed to their greater magnitude of expansion. Additionally, longitudinal analyses of primary and secondary CD8 T cell responses revealed that on a per-cell basis naive CD8 T cells generate higher numbers of long-lived memory cells than do primary memory CD8 T cells. This enhanced "memory generation potential" of responding naive CD8 T cells occurred despite the delayed contraction of secondary CD8 T cell responses. Taken together, the data in this study revealed previously unappreciated differences between naive and memory CD8 T cells and will help further define the functional potential for both cell types. 相似文献
