Delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) test anergy does not impact CD4 reconstitution or normalization of DTH responses during antiretroviral therapy
INTRODUCTION Delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) testing is an in vivo assessment of cell-mediated immunity. Although highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) improves immunologic parameters, the relationship between DTH responsiveness and CD4 gains on HAART is not completely understood. We investigated CD4 reconstitution and the change in DTH responses from treatment baseline through 24 mo...
متن کاملVirus-specific delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH). Cells mediating lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus-specific DTH reaction in mice.
We had previously shown that the local lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus-induced delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) reaction in mice consists of two well delineated phases that are mediated by CD8+ and CD4+ T lymphocytes, respectively. These findings have been confirmed and extended by showing that the first CD8+ cell-dependent part of the response was enhanced by either the presence of CD4+ ...
متن کاملEnhanced immunological memory responses to Listeria monocytogenes in rodents, as measured by delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH), adoptive transfer of DTH, and protective immunity, following Lactobacillus casei Shirota ingestion.
We have investigated the effect of orally administered Lactobacillus casei Shirota (L. casei) on immunological memory, as measured by delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) and acquired cellular resistance (ACR). The studies were performed in animal models in which the animals were rendered immune by a primary Listeria monocytogenes infection. It was shown that orally administered viable L. casei,...
متن کاملGenomic organization and expression of the planarian homeobox genes Dth-1 and Dth-2.
We have characterized the genomic organization of Dth-1 and Dth-2, planarian homeobox-containing genes, previously described at the cDNA level (J. Garcia-Fernàndez, J. Baguñà and E. Saló (1991), Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 88, 7338-7342). Genomic analysis shows that Dth-1 and Dth-2 genes encode proteins of 533 and 363 amino acids respectively. The open reading frame of Dth-1 is interrupted by t...
متن کاملApplicability of Interference Processing to Dth Reception
Today fixed satellite broadcast reception has to compete efficiently with other means of broadcast content delivery to end-users. The ease of reception is essential to maintain a high penetration rate under more competitive conditions. The introduction of DVB-S2 increases efficiency and allows for a higher throughput or a reduction of the reception equipment requirements. This means that a robu...
