Kinetics of Primary and Memory Cytotoxic T Lymphocyte Responses to Herpes Simplex Virus 1 Infection: Granzyme B Mediated CTL Activity
Background: Herpes simplex virus type 1 is one of the most common viruses among human population. Studies demonstrate the essential role of cell mediated immunity, especially CD8+ T cells, in prevention and clearance of HSV1. Objective: It is of great importance to improve our knowledge about the kinetics of CTL responses to primary and secondary HSV-1 infection. Methods: Using a sensitive tech...
متن کاملGranzyme B promotes cytotoxic lymphocyte transmigration via basement membrane remodeling.
Granzyme B (GzmB) is a protease with a well-characterized intracellular role in targeted destruction of compromised cells by cytotoxic lymphocytes. However, GzmB also cleaves extracellular matrix components, suggesting that it influences the interplay between cytotoxic lymphocytes and their environment. Here, we show that GzmB-null effector T cells and natural killer (NK) cells exhibited a cell...
متن کاملInduction of rapid histone degradation by the cytotoxic T lymphocyte protease Granzyme A.
The cytotoxic T lymphocyte protease granzyme A induces caspase-independent cell death in which DNA single-strand nicking is observed instead of oligonucleosomal fragmentation. Granzyme A is a specific tryptase that concentrates in the nucleus of targeted cells and synergistically enhances DNA fragmentation induced by the caspase activator granzyme B. Here we show that granzyme A treatment of is...
متن کاملInduction of target cell DNA release by the cytotoxic T lymphocyte granule protease granzyme A
The rapid breakdown of target cell DNA during CTL-mediated lysis has been difficult to explain by the granule exocytosis model of cytotoxicity. The involvement of CTL granule proteases in this process was strongly suggested by experiments in which CTL were pretreated with the serine protease inhibitor PMSF, in combination with agents that raise the pH of acidic intracellular compartments. While...
متن کاملNuclear targeting of the serine protease granzyme A (fragmentin-1).
Cytolytic granule-mediated target cell killing is effected in part through synergistic action of the membrane-acting protein perforin and serine proteases such as granzymes A (GrA) or B (GrB). In the present study we examine GrA cellular entry and nuclear uptake in intact mouse myeloid FDC-P1 cells exposed to perforin using confocal laser scanning microscopy, as well as reconstitute GrA nuclear...
