Irradiated β-glucan enhances immune response to bacterial infection through CD4 and CD8 T-lymphocytes
Background: &beta-glucans are glucose polymers with a variety of stimulatory effects on the immune system. The objective of this study was to evaluate the immune-enhancing activities of low molecular weight gamma irradiated &beta-glucan (I&beta-g) extracted from Pleurotus ostreatus in response to Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection in rats. Materials and Methods: &beta-glucan (&beta-g) powder was ...
متن کاملMemory CD4 T cells enhance primary CD8 T-cell responses.
CD4 T-cell help is required for optimal memory CD8 T-cell responses. We have found that engaging preexisting CD4 Th1, but not Th2, memory cells at the time of CD8 T-cell priming results in increased CD8 effector responses to both bacterial and viral pathogens. The enhanced responses are characterized by increased numbers of cytokine-producing, antigen-specific cells. These findings suggest that...
متن کاملNumerical status of CD4+CD25+FoxP3+ and CD8+CD28- regulatory T cells in multiple sclerosis
Objective(s): Regulatory T cells, including CD4+CD25+Fox3+ and CD8+CD28- cells play an important role in regulating the balance between immunity and tolerance. Since multiple sclerosis is an inflammatory autoimmune disease, regulatory T cells are considered to be involved in its pathogenesis. In this study, we investigated the circulatory numbers of the two mentioned types of regulatory T cells...
متن کاملCD4 CD25 T regulatory cells control anti-islet CD8 T cells through TGF- –TGF- receptor interactions in type 1 diabetes
Pancreatic lymph node-derived CD4 CD25 T regulatory (Treg) cells inhibit in situ differentiation of islet-reactive CD8 T cells into cytotoxic T lymphocytes, thereby preventing diabetes progression. The mechanism by which these Treg cells suppress anti-islet CD8 T cells is unknown. Here, we show by using a CD8 T cell-mediated model of type 1 diabetes that transforming growth factor (TGF)–TGFrece...
متن کاملFunctional characterization of MHC class II-restricted CD8+CD4- and CD8-CD4- T cell responses to infection in CD4-/- mice.
Classical CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells recognize Ag presented by MHC class II (MHCII) and MHC class I (MHCI), respectively. However, our results show that CD4(-/-) mice mount a strong, readily detectable CD8(+) T cell response to MHCII-restricted epitopes after a primary bacterial or viral infection. These MHCII-restricted CD8(+)CD4(-) T cells are more similar to classical CD8(+) T cells than to C...
