Cellular immunity in pertussis.
Considerable advances have been made recently in our understanding of the pathogenesis and the immunological mechanisms involved in the prevention and control of infection by Bordetella pertussis. Traditionally , research on protection has focused on the role of humoral immunity and several reports have shown that passive transfer of antibodies against several putative protective antigens, incl...
متن کاملCellular immunity in adolescents and adults following acellular pertussis vaccine administration.
Cell-mediated immune (CMI) responses to an acellular pertussis vaccine administered to 49 subjects, a subset of participants in the National Institutes of Health-funded adult acellular pertussis vaccine efficacy trial, were evaluated and compared with antibody responses to vaccine antigens. Levels of proliferation of and cytokine secretion from lymphocytes cultured in the presence of pertussis ...
متن کاملCellular Immunity in Vitro
An in vitro model of cellular immunity in the guinea pig was established. Animals were immunized with tubercle bacilli, bovine gamma globulin, or picrylated human serum albumin in complete Freund's adjuvant. Oil-induced peritoneal exudates from immune and control animals were cultured overnight with and without specific antigen. The cultures were washed and the macrophage monolayers were infect...
متن کاملCellular Immunity in Vitro
When sensitive lymphocytes are cultured with the appropriate antigen, lymphoblasts appear after 24-48 hr of incubation and the number of these increases steadily from the 2nd to the 6th or 7th day. Our problem was to discover, at a cellular level, how this increase takes place; whether it is a massive response of many cells, stepwise recruitment of cells into the lymphoblast class, or simply re...
متن کاملTetraspanins in cellular immunity.
Tetraspanins are a superfamily of integral membrane proteins involved in the organization of microdomains that consist of both cell membrane proteins and cytoplasmic signalling molecules. These microdomains are important in regulating molecular recognition at the cell surface and subsequent signal transduction processes central to the generation of an efficient immune response. Tetraspanins, bo...
