Gammaherpesvirus persistence alters key CD8 T-cell memory characteristics and enhances antiviral protection.
In herpesvirus infections, the virus persists for life but is contained through T-cell-mediated immune surveillance. How this immune surveillance operates is poorly understood. Recent studies of other persistent infections have indicated that virus persistence is associated with functional deficits in the CD8(+) T-cell response. To test whether this is the case in a herpesvirus infection, we us...
متن کاملDetection of Pre-Malifnant B-1 Cells in NZB Mice with a Re-stricted CDR3/DFL16 Region
The relationship between the immunoglobulin (Ig) nucleotide sequence and the ability of a B cell to develop into a malignant cell was studied in a subset of B cells, B-1 cells. B-1 cells become malignant in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and are responsible for the production of "natural autoantibodies". The autoimmune NZB mouse has been known as a human malignancy and CLL model, because ...
متن کاملEvaluation of Th1 and TH2 Cytokine Network in Aspergilus Infected Tumor Bearing Mice
Background & Objective: Invasive Aspergillosis is a fatal infection in immunocompromised patients. The aim of this study was to evaluate the interaction of infectious with Aspergillus and tumor on immune response and cytokine network in Aspergillus infected tumor-bearing mice. Materials and Methods: Mice were implanted by sterile pieces of mouse mammary tumor and then infected by Aspergillus co...
متن کاملB Cell Deficient Mice Are Protected from Biliary Obstruction in the Rotavirus-Induced Mouse Model of Biliary Atresia
A leading theory regarding the pathogenesis of biliary atresia (BA) is that bile duct injury is initiated by a virus infection, followed by an autoimmune response targeting bile ducts. In experimental models of autoimmune diseases, B cells have been shown to play an important role. The aim of this study was to determine the role of B cells in the development of biliary obstruction in the Rhesus...
متن کاملDetection of infectious laryngotracheitis virus (Gallid herpesvirus-1) from clinically infected chickens in Egypt by different diagnostic methods
Infectious laryngotracheitis (ILT) disease is an acute highly contagious viral disease leading to massive economic losses to the national poultry industry. This study aimed to identify the most accurate and rapid diagnostic methods to rescue layer poultry farms from intense outbreaks in Egypt. Fifty pathological specimens were collected and subjected to virus isolation (VI), histopathology, dir...
