چکیده

CD8+ T cells induced by Plasmodium yoelii sporozoites develop into protective memory cells without undergoing changes in interleukin-7 receptor alpha (IL-7Ralpha) expression, differing from the development of memory CD8+ T cells against viruses, which is associated with enhanced IL-7Ralpha expression. This suggests a microbe-dependent diversity in the signals determining the development of memory populations.

Tissue signatures influence the activation of intrahepatic CD8+ T cells against malaria sporozoites

Plasmodium sporozoites and liver stages express antigens that are targeted to the MHC-Class I antigen-processing pathway. After the introduction of Plasmodium sporozoites by Anopheles mosquitoes, bone marrow-derived dendritic cells in skin-draining lymph nodes are the first cells to cross-present parasite antigens and elicit specific CD8(+) T cells. One of these antigens is the immunodominant c...

Malaria Blood Stage Suppression of Liver Stage Immunity by Dendritic Cells

Malaria starts with Plasmodium sporozoites infection of the host's liver, where development into blood stage parasites occurs. It is not clear why natural infections do not induce protection against the initial liver stage and generate low CD8+ T cell responses. Using a rodent malaria model, we show that Plasmodium blood stage infection suppresses CD8+ T cell immune responses that were induced ...

IL-12 and NK cells are required for antigen-specific adaptive immunity against malaria initiated by CD8+ T cells in the Plasmodium yoelii model.

CD8+ T cells have been implicated as critical effector cells in protection against preerythrocytic stage malaria, including the potent protective immunity of mice and humans induced by immunization with radiation-attenuated Plasmodium spp. sporozoites. This immunity is directed against the Plasmodium spp. parasite developing within the host hepatocyte and for a number of years has been presumed...

Immunization with Radiation-Attenuated Plasmodium berghei Sporozoites Induces Liver cCD8α+DC that Activate CD8+T Cells against Liver-Stage Malaria

Immunization with radiation (gamma)-attenuated Plasmodia sporozoites (gamma-spz) confers sterile and long-lasting immunity against malaria liver-stage infection. In the P. berghei gamma-spz model, protection is linked to liver CD8+ T cells that express an effector/memory (T(EM)) phenotype, (CD44(hi)CD45RB(lo)CD62L(lo)), and produce IFN-gamma. However, neither the antigen presenting cells (APC) ...

Class II-restricted protective immunity induced by malaria sporozoites.

The irradiated-sporozoite vaccine elicits sterile immunity against Plasmodium parasites in experimental rodent hosts and human volunteers. Based on rodent malaria models, it has been proposed that CD8+ T cells are the key protective effector mechanism required in sporozoite-induced immunity. To investigate the role of class II-restricted immunity in protective immunity, we immunized beta2-micro...
