Abstract:
:T cell mediated immunity is known to play a central role in the host response to control intra-cellular pathogens. This work demonstrates the presence of specific CD4(+) T cells to Leishmania spp. antigens in peripheral mononuclear cells of naïve individuals (normal volunteers from non-endemic regions). The responder population was expanded by generation of antigen-specific T cell lines, which were produced by repeated stimulation with fixed promastigotes and autologous irradiated PBMC as antigen presenting cells. The leishmania-T cell lines were shown to proliferate in response to different species of the parasite (L. amazonensis, L. braziliensis, and L. donovani), but not to other recall antigens such as Candida albicans or tetanus toxoid. A preferential expansion of IFNgamma and IL-2 producing Th1-like T cells was observed. The leishmania-reactive cells were distributed between CD4(+) CD45RA(+) ("naïve") and CD4(+) CD45R0(+) ("memory") populations. Although limiting dilution analysis showed a precursor frequency 3 times lower within the naïve compartment, similar numbers of T cell lines were derived from both purified subpopulations. This study using leishmania-specific CD4(+) T cell lines produced from normal individuals should provide information on cellular immune responses that are triggered by the parasite and how infection impacts the naïve T cell repertoire.
