objective: the use of bacterial plasmids carrying specific genes of pathogens as genetic vaccines is a relatively new technique for induction of cellular immune responses against microbial pathogens. mechanisms of production of specific immune responses against these vaccines are not still completely understood. therefore, it is necessary to examine various routes of inoculation to find the bes...
Natural killer (NK) cells are a distinct lymphocyte subset that, like cytotoxic T cells, recognize and destroy abnormal self-cells. Unlike T cells, however, NK cells lack a uniquely rearranged antigen receptor gene or a single defining immunophenotypic attribute. Furthermore, there is considerable functional and phenotypic overlap between NK cells and cytotoxic T cells, and the latter are induc...
Cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) search out and destroy pathogenic cells, such as those infected with viruses. The biochemistry laboratory at the University of Alberta (Edmonton, Alta.) studies the molecular mechanisms used by these effectors, and this review covers research on this topic primarily from this group. Research there began with the discovery of the granzyme genes and the realization ...
The only peptide of Sendai virus that is recognized by cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) in B6 mice was found with (i) the use of recombinant vaccinia virus constructs containing separate genes of Sendai virus and (ii) a set of overlapping peptides completely spanning the identified nucleoprotein (NP) gene product. This immunodominant NP peptide is recognized by Sendai virus-specific CTL that are k...
We have developed a systems biology concept to explain the origin of systemic autoimmunity. From our studies of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) we have concluded that this disease is the inevitable consequence of over-stimulating the host's immune system by repeated exposure to antigen to levels that surpass a critical threshold, which we term the system's "self-organized criticality". We ob...
CTLs specific to p53 were previously shown to efficiently eradicate p53-overexpressing tumor cells in vitro as well as in vivo. In this report, we demonstrate that these CTLs can also eliminate tumors that display moderate or even low levels of p53. Neither high steady-state levels of p53 nor elevated p53 synthesis is a prerequisite for recognition of tumors by p53-specific CTLs. Instead, our d...
The aim of this work is to investigate the mechanisms involved in the clearance of viral infection of the influenza virus at the epithelium level by modeling and analyzing the interaction of the influenza virus-specific cytotoxic T Lymphocytes (CTL cells, T-cells) and the epithelial cells. Since detailed and definite mechanisms that trigger T-cell production and cell death are still controversi...
Researchers designing antitumor treatments have long focused on eliciting tumor-specific CD8 cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) because of their potent killing activity and their ability to reject transplanted organs. The resulting treatments, however, have generally been surprisingly poor at inducing complete tumor rejection, both in experimental models and in the clinic. Although a few scattered s...
