Imaging the immune response
JCB • VOLUME 179 • NUMBER 3 • 2007 362 Imaging the immune response Y ou can learn a lot from a picture. Case in point, a new report from Kamal Khanna, Jeffrey McNamara, and Leo Lefrançois (University of Connecticut, Farmington, CT) images T cells as they prepare to fi ght infection. To examine the cell dynamics of an immune response, the researchers used laser scanning microscopy to take 3D sna...
متن کاملImaging the choreography of lymphocyte trafficking and the immune response.
The functioning of the immune system depends upon exquisitely choreographed interactions between its cellular constituents. Two-photon microscopy now enables us to visualize cell motility and cell-cell interactions deep within intact tissues and organs, both in explanted preparations and in vivo. Real-time immunoimaging techniques have illuminated the roles of random and chemokine-driven motili...
متن کاملTargeted noninvasive imaging of the innate immune response.
Monitoring the immune system is complicated by its enormous cellular heterogeneity and by the continuous flux in the phenotypes and numbers of immune cells throughout the body. Measurements can be performed on tissue biopsies or peripheral blood, but these methods do not provide whole-body systemic information and may suffer from sampling errors. Noninvasive imaging techniques could provide an ...
متن کاملThe factors influencing the immune response to hepatitis B vaccine and persistence of the protection.
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection and its sequelae which include cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma is a major public health problem throught the world.The WHO strategy for effective control of HBV infection is vaccination with the surface antigen of virus(HBsAg).The results obtained from a large number of studies demonstrated that the vaccine induces a protective antibody resonse (anti-HB...
متن کاملThe perioperative immune response.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW A host of immune modulators are now available in clinical practice. The perioperative period is characterized by profound alterations in host immunity, which can result in poor outcomes, which include infection, cancer recurrence and organ failure. Manipulation of the perioperative immune response has the potential to improve outcomes. A complete understanding of the mechanism...
