Peyer's patches are required for intestinal immunoglobulin A responses to Salmonella spp.
Previous studies have shown that Peyer's patches (PP) are not required for intestinal immunoglobulin A (IgA) responses to orally administered soluble protein. However, the roles of PP in regulation of mucosal immune responses against bacterial antigen remain to be clarified. In the present study, we generated several gut-associated lymphoreticular tissue-null mice by treatment with anti-interle...
متن کاملProtective mucosal immunity in aging is associated with functional CD4+ T cells in nasopharyngeal-associated lymphoreticular tissue.
Our previous studies showed that mucosal immunity was impaired in 1-year-old mice that had been orally immunized with OVA and native cholera toxin (nCT) as mucosal adjuvant. In this study, we queried whether similar immune dysregulation was also present in mucosal compartments of mice immunized by the nasal route. Both 1-year-old and young adult mice were immunized weekly with three nasal doses...
متن کاملIn vivo targeting of intestinal and extraintestinal transglutaminase 2 by coeliac autoantibodies.
BACKGROUND IgA class serum autoantibodies against type 2 (tissue) transglutaminase (TG2) bind to both intestinal and extraintestinal normal tissue sections in vitro, eliciting endomysial, reticulin, and jejunal antibody reactions. It is not known whether similar binding also occurs in coeliac patients in vivo, and may thereby contribute to disease manifestations. AIMS To investigate intestina...
متن کاملInteractions of commensal gut microbes with subsets of B- and T-cells in the murine host.
Although mechanisms operative in the induction and maintenance of specific, adaptive immunity, including 'cognate' B/T interactions, have been extensively studied and defined, we still know little about the mechanisms operative in developing and maintaining B- and T-cell dependent 'natural' immunity. Particularly, we are still rather ignorant concerning gut microbial/gut or systemic APC, T cell...
متن کاملGeneration of gut-homing IgA-secreting B cells by intestinal dendritic cells.
Normal intestinal mucosa contains abundant immunoglobulin A (IgA)-secreting cells, which are generated from B cells in gut-associated lymphoid tissues (GALT). We show that dendritic cells (DC) from GALT induce T cell-independent expression of IgA and gut-homing receptors on B cells. GALT-DC-derived retinoic acid (RA) alone conferred gut tropism but could not promote IgA secretion. However, RA p...
