Soluble TNFRp75 regulates host protective immunity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
Development of host protective immunity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection is critically dependent on the inflammatory cytokine TNF. TNF signals through 2 receptors, TNFRp55 and TNFRp75; however, the role of TNFRp75-dependent signaling in immune regulation is poorly defined. Here we found that mice lacking TNFRp75 exhibit greater control of M. tuberculosis infection compared with WT m...
متن کاملCD137 differentially regulates innate and adaptive immunity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis
Protective immunity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis is primarily mediated by the interaction of antigen-specific T cells and antigen presenting cells, which often depends on the interplay of cytokines produced by these cells. Costimulatory signals represent a complex network of receptor-ligand interactions that qualitatively and quantitatively influence immune responses. Thus, here we invest...
متن کاملMycobacterium tuberculosis: Manipulator of Protective Immunity
Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) is one of the most successful pathogens in human history and remains a global health challenge. MTB has evolved a plethora of strategies to evade the immune response sufficiently to survive within the macrophage in a bacterial-immunological equilibrium, yet causes sufficient immunopathology to facilitate its transmission. This review highlights MTB as the driver...
متن کاملInterleukin 27R regulates CD4+ T cell phenotype and impacts protective immunity during Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection
CD4+ T cells mediate protection against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb); however, the phenotype of protective T cells is undefined, thereby confounding vaccination efforts. IL-27 is highly expressed during human tuberculosis (TB), and absence of IL-27R (Il27ra) specifically on T cells results in increased protection. IL-27R deficiency during chronic Mtb infection does not impact antigen-specif...
متن کاملCorrelates of protective immunity to Mycobacterium tuberculosis in humans.
Correlates of protective immunity to Mycobacterium tuberculosis in humans are desirable for identifying protective antigens, demonstrating the immunogenicity of a vaccine candidate and its potential efficacy, and permitting optimization of the dose, vehicle, adjuvant, and schedule of immunization. Potential correlates can be proposed on the basis of animal models and ex vivo/in vitro studies in...
