Fate of MHC-matched corneal allografts in Th1-deficient hosts.
PURPOSE To determine whether the Th1 cytokine, interferon (IFN)-gamma, is necessary for corneal graft rejection. METHODS Full-thickness penetrating keratoplasties were performed in normal mice and in IFN-gamma knockout (KO) mice. RESULTS Sixty-four percent of the MHC-mismatched corneal allografts were rejected in IFN-gamma KO mice. By contrast, MHC-matched corneal allografts were rejected i...
متن کاملIFN-gamma regulates donor CD8 T cell expansion, migration, and leads to apoptosis of cells of a solid tumor.
We previously reported that IFN-gamma secreted by donor cytotoxic T cell 1 (Tc1) cells was the most important factor in promoting EG7 (an OVA transfection the EL4 thymoma) rejection in mice. In this study, we show that the ability of the host to respond to Tc1-secreted IFN-gamma is critical for promoting acute tumor rejection, while host production of IFN-gamma is not important. CFSE-labeled wi...
متن کاملInterferon Gamma Unresponsiveness Due to Down-Regulation of IFN-γR Expression in Experimental Cutaneous Leishmaniasis
It is now well documented that interferon gamma (IFN-γ) is the indispensable cytokine for inducing protective immunity against experimental and human cutaneous leishmaniaisis. The importance of IFN-γ receptor (IFN-γR) has also been studied. In the present study, we made attempts to find out whether L. major infection is able to alter the expression of IFN-γR in vivo. In addition, we studied the...
متن کاملRegional CNS responses to IFN-γ determine lesion localization patterns during EAE pathogenesis
The localization of inflammatory foci within the cerebellum is correlated to severe clinical outcomes in multiple sclerosis (MS). Previous studies of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), a model of MS, revealed distinct clinical outcomes correlated with the capacity of the animal to produce IFN-gamma. Outcomes were linked to localization of inflammatory cells in either the spinal co...
متن کاملThe effect of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells to induce PD-L1 molecule on splenic lymphocytes
Background: Mesenchymal stem cells are non-hematopoietic stromal cells that are used in the treatment of many chronic and autoimmune diseases by modulating the immune system. Due to the limitations of using autologous mesenchymal stem cells, the use of allogeneic stem cells is a promising therapeutic approach in the treatment of immunological disorders. This study aimed to investigate the abili...
