Viral immunity: Interferons jog old T-cell memories
The mechanism by which life-long immunity to viruses persists is a matter of some controversy. Interferons induced by subsequent unrelated viral infections may propagate existing memory T cells non-specifically.
متن کاملThe antitumor immunity of ipilimumab: (T-cell) memories to last a lifetime?
Ipilimumab has shown an overall survival benefit in 2 randomized phase III studies. A minority of patients achieve long-term disease control, highlighting the potential of this immunotherapeutic approach. In ongoing efforts, investigators are continuing to characterize these patients' unique clinical courses and correlate their responses with underlying mechanisms of antitumor immunity.
متن کاملRobust Anti-viral Immunity Requires Multiple Distinct T Cell-Dendritic Cell Interactions
Host defense against viruses and intracellular parasites depends on effector CD8(+) T cells, whose optimal clonal expansion, differentiation, and memory properties require signals from CD4(+) T cells. Here, we addressed the role of dendritic cell (DC) subsets in initial activation of the two T cell types and their co-operation. Surprisingly, initial priming of CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells was spat...
متن کاملImpaired T cell immunity in B cell-deficient mice following viral central nervous system infection.
CD8(+) T cells are required to control acute viral replication in the CNS following infection with neurotropic coronavirus. By contrast, studies in B cell-deficient (muMT) mice revealed Abs as key effectors in suppressing virus recrudescence. The apparent loss of initial T cell-mediated immune control in the absence of B cells was investigated by comparing T cell populations in CNS mononuclear ...
متن کاملLifelong persistent viral infection alters the naive T cell pool, impairing CD8 T cell immunity in late life.
Persistent CMV infection has been associated with immune senescence. To address the causal impact of lifelong persistent viral infection on immune homeostasis and defense, we infected young mice systemically with HSV-1, murine CMV, or both viruses and studied their T cell homeostasis and function. Herpesvirus(+) mice exhibited increased all-cause mortality compared with controls. Upon Listeria-...
