B and T-Cell Epitope Prediction of the OMP25 Antigen for Developing Brucella melitensis Vaccines for Sheep
Brucellosis, produced by Brucella species, is a disease that causes severe economic losses for livestock farms worldwide Due to serious economic and medical consequences of this disease, many efforts have been made to prevent the infection through the use of recombinant vaccines based on Brucella outer membrane protein (OMP) antigens. In the present study, a wide range of on-line prediction sof...
متن کاملRequirement for CD4 T cell help in maintenance of memory CD8 T cell responses is epitope dependent.
CD4 Th cells play critical roles in stimulating Ab production and in generating primary or maintaining memory CTL. The requirement for CD4 help in generating and maintaining CTL responses has been reported to vary depending on the vector or method used for immunization. In this study, we examined the requirement for CD4 T cell help in generating and maintaining CTL responses to an experimental ...
متن کاملB Cell–dependent T Cell Responses
Contact sensitivity (CS) is a classic example of in vivo T cell immunity in which skin sensitization with reactive hapten leads to immunized T cells, which are then recruited locally to mediate antigen-specific inflammation after subsequent skin challenge. We have previously shown that T cell recruitment in CS is triggered by local activation of complement, which generates C5a that triggers C5a...
متن کاملT cell responses to an HLA-B*07-restricted epitope on the dengue NS3 protein correlate with disease severity.
Dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF), the severe manifestation of dengue virus (DV) infection characterized by plasma leakage, is more common in secondary DV infections in previously infected individuals and is associated with high levels of immune activation. To determine the Ag specificity of this immune response, we studied the response to an HLA-B*07-restricted T cell epitope, residues 221-232 of...
متن کاملFunctionally restricted, allospecific, human helper T cell lines that amplify either B cell or cytolytic T cell responses
Using a panel of partially cloned, OKT4+, DRw-1-specific, alloproliferative human T cell lines, we have identified two functionally restricted and reciprocating types of helper T cells. One provides major histocompatibility complex-restricted help for plaque-forming cell responses by DRw 1+ allogeneic B cells; the other preferentially amplifies the generation of allospecific cytotoxic T lymphoc...
