DC cross‐present exogenous antigens on MHC class I molecules, a process required for the onset of anti‐tumor immune responses. In order to study the cross‐presentation of tumor antigens by human DC, we compared the pathways of cross‐presentation of long peptides requiring internalization and intracellular processing with the direct presentation of short peptides, which does not require intracellular processing. We found that, after brief incubations with DC, short peptides were presented to CD8+ T cells with higher efficiencies than long peptides. After longer times of chase in the absence of peptide, however, the efficiency of presentation of the two types of peptides was reversed. After 2–3 days, DC pulsed with long peptides still activated T cells efficiently, while DC pulsed with short peptides failed to do so. Long‐lasting presentation of the long peptides was, at least in part, due to a stored persistent pool of antigen, which was still available for loading on MHC class I molecules after several days of chase. These results show that the use of long synthetic peptides allows the efficient, long‐lasting, presentation of tumor antigens, suggesting that long peptides represent an interesting approach for active anti‐tumor vaccination. 相似文献

The use of universally immunogenic T cell epitopes, such as those identified in tetanus toxin or malaria circumsporozoite protein, could represent a major improvement in the development of synthetic vaccines. However, one limitation of this approach is the lack of T cell cross-reactivity between the vaccine and the pathogen. To determine whether the memory B cell response elicited by immunization with a synthetic peptide containing a B cell epitope linked to a T cell epitope can be restimulated by the same B cell epitope linked to different T cell epitope(s), we used a synthetic peptide which contains non-overlapping B and T cell determinants from hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) of hepatitis B virus (HBV). The results of this study clearly show that primed T cells can increase the antibody response against a B cell epitope linked to the priming T cell determinant. However, the antibody response obtained was weaker than that obtained after two injections of the peptide containing both B and T cell epitopes, showing the important role played by memory B cells in secondary antibody responses. Moreover, a strong antibody response against the B cell epitope was elicited by boosting mice with the B cell epitope linked to a heterologous carrier, thus demonstrating that a strong B cell memory response can be revealed in the absence of primed T cells. These results therefore provide new important information for the design of synthetic or recombinant vaccines. 相似文献

Engineering parvovirus-like particles for the induction of B-cell, CD4(+) and CTL responses. 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

An antigen delivery system based on hybrid recombinant parvovirus-like particles (VLPs) formed by the self-assembly of the capsid VP2 protein of porcine (PPV) or canine parvovirus (CPV) expressed in insect cells with the baculovirus system has been developed. PPV:VLPs containing a CD8(+) epitope from the LCMV nucleoprotein evoked a potent CTL response and were able to protect mice against a lethal infection with the virus. Also, PPV:VLPs containing the C3:T epitope from poliovirus elicited a CD4(+)3 log(10) units) against poliovirus. The possibility of combining different types of epitopes in different positions of a single particle to stimulate different branches of the immune system paves the way to the production of more potent vaccines in a simple and cheap way. 相似文献

HLA-G inhibits the allogeneic proliferative response. 总被引:16,自引:0,他引:16

HLA-G is a non-classical MHC class I molecule expressed at the feto/maternal interface where it plays a role in materno-fetal tolerance by inhibiting NK cells. Expression of killing inhibitory receptors capable of interacting with HLA-G on T lymphocytes led us to hypothesize that HLA-G molecules could also modulate T cell responses, analyzed here in the context of the allogeneic proliferative response. Using LCL-HLA-G transfectants as stimulators of T cells present among peripheral mononuclear cells and K562-HLA-G1 transfectants as inhibitors in a classical mixed lymphocyte reaction, we showed that HLA-G is able to inhibit T cell allo-proliferation. These findings provide new insight into the role of HLA-G in preventing allograft rejection. 相似文献

Lack of Th1 or Th2 polarization of CD4+ T cell response induced by particulate antigen targeted to phagocytic cells 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Several factors are involved in the selective activation of Th1 or Th2
subset of CD4+ T cells, such as the type of antigen-presenting cells, the
dose of antigen, the route of immunization, etc. To analyze the influence
of accessory cells on Th1/Th2 cell differentiation, we used a particulate
antigen prepared by covalent linkage of hemocyanin (LH) to 1 microns
synthetic microspheres. This particulate antigen was efficiently presented
to T cells by macrophages but not by B lymphocytes. BALB/c mice immunized
either with soluble LH in alum or with particulate LH without adjuvant
produced both Th1 (IL-2 and IFN- gamma) and Th2 (IL-4 and IL-5) cytokines.
Moreover, mice primed either with soluble or particulate LH secreted higher
levels of IgG1- than of IgG2a-specific antibodies. The induction of this
cytokine profile response was independent of the route of administration of
the antigen, and was observed both in BALB/c and C57BL/6 mice. In contrast,
immunization of mice with particulate LH in the presence of poly(I):(C) or
of IL-12 induced a strong activation of Th1 cells, as shown by an up-
regulated IFN-gamma production, and by decreased IL-4 and IL-5 levels
associated to a greatly enhanced IgG2a antibody response. These results
therefore demonstrate that targeting the antigen to phagocytic cells is not
sufficient to stimulate a polarized Th response and that environmental
cytokines play the major role in the selective activation of Th1 cells.
This study provides important conclusions for the development of new
vaccines and shows that particulate antigen associated with appropriate
cofactor can selectively activate Th1 cells.

Specific antibodies increase antigen uptake and presentation by antigen-presenting cells via the B cell receptor in B cells or FcgammaR in dendritic cells. To determine whether the interaction between antibody and antigen could influence the set of peptides presented by MHC II molecules, we analyzed the presentation of different CD4(+) T cell epitopes of hen egg-white lysozyme (HEL) after the capture of immune complexes formed between HEL and seven different specific mAb. The 103-117 T cell epitope (I-E(d)) was specifically and selectively up-regulated by the D1.3 and F9.13.7 mAb that binds to proximal loops in the native structure of HEL. Furthermore, Ii-independent T cell epitopes exposed on the HEL surface (116-129 and 34-45, I-A(k) restricted) which require a mild processing involving the recycling of MHC II molecules were selectively up-regulated by mAb that overlap those T cell epitopes (D1.3 and D44.1). However, F10.6.6, somatically derived from the same germ line genes as D44.1 and exhibiting an higher affinity for HEL, was without effect on the presentation of the 34-45 epitope. An Ii-dependent T cell epitope buried into the tertiary structure of HEL (45-61, I-A(k) restricted) and requiring the neosynthesis of MHC II was up-regulated by high-affinity mAb recognizing epitopes located at the N- or C-terminus of the T cell epitope. These results strongly suggest that (i) the spatial relationship linking the T cell epitope and the B cell epitope recognized by the mAb, (ii) the intrinsic processing requirements of the T cell epitope, and (iii) the antibody affinity influences the presentation of a given T cell epitope. 相似文献

Stent-based delivery of the antiproliferative and immunosuppressive macrocyclic lactone sirolimus reduces neointimal formation and restenosis by cytostatic inhibition of vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation. The objective of this study was to determine the feasibility and efficacy of stent-based delivery of ABT-578, a structurally unique macrocyclic lactone. Stainless steel balloon-expandable stents were coated with thin layer of phosphorylcholine (PC) or PC with ABT-578 (10 microg/mm). Fifteen juvenile domestic pigs underwent placement of oversized bare metal (n = 15), PC (n = 8), and PC with ABT-578 (n = 9) stents in the coronary arteries. At 28 days, histology demonstrated similar mean injury scores for the control, PC-, and ABT-578-coated stents. The mean neointimal area (mm2) was significantly reduced for ABT-578 (1.70 +/- 0.47) as compared with PC (2.82 +/- 1.24) and control (2.89 +/- 1.91) stents (P < or = 0.05). The 40% reduction in neointimal area resulted in significantly less mean percent diameter stenosis for ABT-578 (19.4% +/- 4.0%) as compared with PC (30.3 +/- 12.1 %) and control (29.4% +/- 15.5%) stents (P < or = 0.03). Twelve of the 45 bare metal stent cross-sections (26.7%) exhibited a giant cell reaction, while none of the sections from the ABT-578-eluting stents had a giant cell reaction (P = 0.004). Stent-based delivery of ABT-578 via a PC surface coating inhibits neointimal formation at 28 days in the porcine coronary model. Further study is necessary to determine the dose-response and long-term effects ABT-578-eluting stents in the porcine coronary model. 相似文献

Role of HLA-G versus HLA-E on NK function: HLA-G is able to inhibit NK cytolysis by itself. 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8

Recent studies have shown that endogenous HLA-E molecules are stabilized on the cell surface upon the expression of HLA-G which contains within its leader sequence, a nonapeptide capable of binding with the HLA-E/beta2m complex. Since HLA-E was found to be the major ligand for the CD94/NKG2A inhibitory receptor, we determined the role of HLA-G versus HLA-E on NK lysis inhibition. We showed that K562 cells transfected with HLA-G1 cDNA are protected from NK lysis by direct interaction between HLA-G1 and killing inhibitory receptor(s). This NK lysis inhibition is not dependent on HLA-E expression, since no HLA-E protein was detected on K562 cells; HLA-G1 is therefore able to inhibit NK lysis by itself. 相似文献

HLA-G-mediated inhibition of antigen-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes. 总被引:21,自引:0,他引:21
F A Le Gal B Riteau C Sedlik I Khalil-Daher C Menier J Dausset J G Guillet E D Carosella N Rouas-Freiss 《International immunology》1999,11(8):1351-1356
In the present study, we demonstrate that the non-classical MHC class I molecule HLA-G impairs specific cytolytic T cell functions in addition to its well-established inhibition of NK lysis. The antigen-specific cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) response analyzed was mediated by CD8(+) T cells specific for the influenza virus matrix epitope, M58-66, presented by HLA-A2. The transfection of HLA-G1 cDNA in target cells carrying the M58-66 epitope reduced their lysis by these virus-specific CTL. This HLA-G-mediated inhibition of antigen-specific CTL lysis was (i) peptide dose dependent, (ii) reversed by blocking HLA-G with a specific mAb and (iii) still observed despite the blockade of HLA-E/CD94/NKG2A interaction. By inhibiting both CTL and NK functions, HLA-G appears to have an extensive role in immune tolerance. 相似文献

Immune responses induced by recombinant BCG strains according to level of production of a foreign antigen: malE 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
Himmelrich H Lo-Man R Winter N Guermonprez P Sedlik C Rojas M Monnaie D Gheorghiu M Lagranderie M Hofnung M Gicquel B Clément JM Leclerc C 《Vaccine》2000,18(24):2636-2647
A variety of viral, bacterial and parasitic antigens have been expressed in BCG and the capacity of these recombinant bacteria to induce immune responses has been well documented. However, little is known about the parameters influencing the induction of immune responses by recombinant BCG (rBCG), such as level of production and localization of the recombinant antigen. In the present study, we have constructed several rBCG strains expressing the malE gene from Escherichia coli which is either secreted or targeted to the cytoplasm or plasma membrane. Expression of malE was quantified by ELISA and localization was analyzed by flow cytometry. Even when using the same promoter, levels of cytoplasmic or membrane MalE production were far less than those from secreting strains using either mycobacterial or E. coli secretion signals. Stronger and more rapid immune responses were induced by rBCG strains with the highest levels of secreted MalE compared to cytoplasmic or membrane constructs, including both good humoral and proliferative responses in BALB/c, C57BL6 and even C3H mice, previously shown to be poor MalE responders. These results suggest that the levels of foreign antigen production play an important role in the induction of immune responses by rBCG strains. 相似文献
