mTOR Promotes Antiviral Humoral Immunity by Differentially Regulating CD4 Helper T Cell and B Cell Responses.
mTOR has important roles in regulation of both innate and adaptive immunity, but whether and how mTOR modulates humoral immune responses have yet to be fully understood. To address this issue, we examined the effects of rapamycin, a specific inhibitor of mTOR, on B cell and CD4 T cell responses during acute infection with lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus. Rapamycin treatment resulted in suppr...
متن کاملThe a4 Nicotinic Receptor Promotes CD4 T-Cell Proliferation and a Helper T-Cell Immune Responses
Smoking is a common addiction and a leading cause of disease. Chronic nicotine exposure is known to activate nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) in immune cells. We demonstrate a novel role for a4 nAChRs in the effect of nicotine on T-cell proliferation and immunity. Using cell-based sorting and proteomic analysis we define an a4 nAChR expressing helper T-cell population (a4CD3CD4) and s...
متن کاملCD4+ T-Cell-Independent Secondary Immune Responses to Pneumocystis Pneumonia
Pneumocystis pneumonia is a major cause of morbidity and mortality among immunocompromised patients, especially in the context of HIV/AIDS. In the murine model of Pneumocystis pneumonia, CD4(+) T-cells are required for clearance of a primary infection of Pneumocystis, but not the memory recall response. We hypothesized that the memory recall response in the absence of CD4(+) T-cells is mediated...
متن کاملDynamics of CD4(+) T cell responses against Listeria monocytogenes.
The generation of CD4(+) T cell memory cells is poorly understood. Recently, two different murine CD4(+) TCR transgenic T cell lines, LLO118 and LLO56, both specific for the same epitope but differing in their expression level of the cell surface protein CD5, were generated. Notably, these cell lines showed different behavior upon primary and secondary exposure to Listeria monocytogenes. Wherea...
متن کاملNeurite outgrowth is differentially impacted by distinct immune cell subsets.
Axonal damage can occur in the central nervous system following trauma, during the course of autoimmune and neurodegenerative disease and during viral and bacterial infections. The degree of axonal damage and absence of spontaneous repair are major determinants of long-term clinical outcome. While inflammation is a common feature of these conditions, the impact of particular immune cell subsets...
