Mucosal immune responses following intestinal nematode infection
In most natural environments, the large majority of mammals harbour parasitic helminths that often live as adults within the intestine for prolonged periods (1-2 years). Although these organisms have been eradicated to a large extent within westernized human populations, those living within rural areas of developing countries continue to suffer from high infection rates. Indeed, recent estimate...
متن کاملSwine infection with Trichinella spiralis: Comparative analysis of the mucosal intestinal and systemic immune responses.
The immune protective response developed by swine against Trichinella spiralis is not yet fully understood, particularly at the mucosal level. This study aimed to characterise intestinal immunity to T. spiralis by comparison with the systemic response in specifically pathogen-free pigs. For this purpose, the kinetics of cytokine and antibody production were assessed in the intestinal mucosa and...
متن کاملEnhanced Mucosal and Systemic Immune Responses to Intestinal Reovirus Infection in b2-Microglobulin-Deficient Mice
Enteric infection of mice with respiratory enteric orphan virus (reovirus) type 1, strain Lang elicits both humoral and cellular immune responses. To investigate the role of CD8, a/b T-cell receptor (TCR) T cells in mucosal immunity to an enteric pathogen, we examined immune responses and viral clearance following enteric reovirus infection in C57BL/6, B6129F2, and b2-microglobulin-deficient (b...
متن کاملEnhanced mucosal and systemic immune responses to intestinal reovirus infection in beta2-microglobulin-deficient mice.
Enteric infection of mice with respiratory enteric orphan virus (reovirus) type 1, strain Lang elicits both humoral and cellular immune responses. To investigate the role of CD8+, alpha/beta T-cell receptor (TCR)+ T cells in mucosal immunity to an enteric pathogen, we examined immune responses and viral clearance following enteric reovirus infection in C57BL/6, B6129F2, and beta2-microglobulin-...
متن کاملModulation of immune responses following antigen administration by mucosal route.
Most microbial infections are either restricted to the mucosal membranes or the etiologic agents needed to transit the mucosa. Thus, it is desirable to stimulate a mucosal response following vaccination, to block both infection and disease development. Attenuated vaccine carriers mimic natural infections, triggering also mucosal responses. Similar results can be achieved by administering antige...
