Analysis of immune response of stressed male mice during Chlamydia muridarum lung infection

چکیده
Chlamydia lung infection caused by trachomatis is a serious particularly in infants but there are few studies about infection. Chlamydial genital and infections mice frequently done with muridarum. The purpose of our study was to explore the effect stress chlamydia male mice. We hypothesize that changes level cytokine production monocytes during As result from these include counting live cells, differentiation proliferation bone marrow derived where showed non-stressed dendritic cells (DCs) WT stressed macrophages (MO) had sufficient study. No difference IL-b non-stress observed. Beta2-adrenergic receptor (b2-AR agonist (fenoterol) antagonist (ICI 118 551) treatment resulted agonists antagonists. TNF-alpha high compared for MO. LPS stimulated DC no However, decreased. IFN-g, Con A- LPS-treated splenic T cells. In contrast IL-5, IL-10, IL-23 treated norepinephrine bet2-adrenergic agonist, Fenoterol. Overall, cytokines shows variation may have roles enhancing protection or increased

Bioluminescence Imaging of Chlamydia muridarum Ascending Infection in Mice
Chlamydial pathogenicity in the upper genital tract relies on chlamydial ascending from the lower genital tract. To monitor chlamydial ascension, we engineered a luciferase-expressing C. muridarum. In cells infected with the luciferase-expressing C. muridarum, luciferase gene expression and enzymatic activity (measured as bioluminescence intensity) correlated well along the infection course, su...
متن کاملThe infecting dose of Chlamydia muridarum modulates the innate immune response and ascending infection.
Murine vaginal infection with the obligate intracellular bacterium Chlamydia muridarum is commonly used as a model for ascending Chlamydia infections of the human female genital tract. Gamma interferon-producing Th1 cells, in concert with other mononuclear infiltrates, primarily mediate antichlamydial immunity. However, many factors modify this response, including the bacterial load. To investi...
متن کاملChlamydia muridarum Lung Infection in Infants Alters Hematopoietic Cells to Promote Allergic Airway Disease in Mice
BACKGROUND Viral and bacterial respiratory tract infections in early-life are linked to the development of allergic airway inflammation and asthma. However, the mechanisms involved are not well understood. We have previously shown that neonatal and infant, but not adult, chlamydial lung infections in mice permanently alter inflammatory phenotype and physiology to increase the severity of allerg...
متن کاملInterferon regulatory transcription factor 3 protects mice from uterine horn pathology during Chlamydia muridarum genital infection.
Mice with the type I interferon (IFN) receptor gene knocked out (IFNAR KO mice) or deficient for alpha/beta IFN (IFN-α/β) signaling clear chlamydial infection earlier than control mice and develop less oviduct pathology. Initiation of host IFN-β transcription during an in vitro chlamydial infection requires interferon regulatory transcription factor 3 (IRF3). The goal of the present study was t...
متن کاملCell-mediated immune response during primary Chlamydia pneumoniae infection.
The development of Chlamydia pneumoniae-specific cell-mediated immunity was studied during a primary C. pneumoniae infection. The immune response was detected as positive lymphocyte proliferation and secretion of interferon gamma. C. pneumoniae-induced activation of both CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells was detected in the early phase of infection, but activation of only CD4(+) T cells was detected in...
