Purified bovine WC1+ gamma delta T lymphocytes are activated by staphylococcal enterotoxins and toxic shock syndrome toxin-1 superantigens: proliferation response, TCR V gamma profile and cytokines expression.
family were induced. Genes encoding TCR Vgamma1 and TCR Vgamma2 family, but not TCR Vgamma5 were detected. The cells also expressed cytokine transcripts, namely, those of IL-12, IFN-gamma and TNF-alpha, ...
Improved immunogenicity and protective efficacy of a tuberculosis DNA vaccine encoding Ag85 by protein boosting.
interferon (IFN-gamma) response in spleen two- to fourfold. Further, intracellular cytokine analysis by flow cytometry also showed an increase in IFN-gamma-producing CD4 (+) T cells in ...
Turkey and chicken interferon-gamma, which share high sequence identity, are biologically cross-reactive.
Turkeys Abstract: Turkey and chicken interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) share high identity (96.3% and 97% at the nucleotide and amino acid level, respectively). As such, we predicted that they would be ...
What are the immunologically active components of bacille Calmette-Guérin in therapy of superficial bladder cancer?
cytosol, purified polysaccharides as glucan or arabinomannan, purified native proteins from BCG culture filtrate, recombinant 22 kDa protein, phosphate transporter PstS-2 and-3 proteins). IFN-gamma, IL-12, ...
CD4+ T cells contain Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection in the absence of CD8+ T cells in mice vaccinated with DNA encoding Ag85A.
tuberculosis challenge infection. In addition, Ag85A DNA-vaccinated IFN-gamma gene knockout mice produced Ag85-specific antibodies and IL-2 but died rapidly following a M. tuberculosis challenge infection. ...
Tuberculosis DNA vaccine encoding Ag85A is immunogenic and protective when administered by intramuscular needle injection but not by epidermal gene gun bombardment.
gamma interferon (IFN-gamma) secretion, however, was much lower in gg-immunized than in i.m.-immunized BALB /c mice. On the other hand, C57BL mice reacted only very weakly to gg immunization, whereas ...
Characterization of the culture filtrate-specific cytotoxic T lymphocyte response induced by Bacillus Calmette-Guérin vaccination in H-2b mice.
that they use the degranulation pathway (secretion of perforins and granzymes) as the main lytic mechanism of cytotoxicity and also secrete IFN-gamma upon incubation with CF-pulsed macrophages. The in ...
Immunogenicity and protective efficacy of tuberculosis DNA vaccines encoding putative phosphate transport receptors.
against i.v. challenge with M. tuberculosis H37R v was analyzed. Significant levels of highly Ag-specific Abs and Th1-type cytokines IL-2 and IFN-gamma could be detected following vaccination with each of ...
Characterization of the culture filtrate-specific cytotoxic T lymphocyte response induced by bacillus Calmette-Guérin vaccination in H-2b mice
We show that they use the degranulation pathway (secretion of perforins and granzymes) as the main lytic mechanism of cytotoxicity and also secrete IFN-γ upon incubation with CF-pulsed macrophages. ...
A Cryptosporidium parvum oocyst low molecular mass fraction evokes a CD4+ T-cell-dependent IFN-gamma response in bovine peripheral blood mononuclear cell cultures.
