Abstract:
:Mice that received a sublethal, intraperitoneal dose of viable Listeria monocytogenes, virulent strain 10403, exhibited a systemic increase in natural killer (NK) activity. The kinetics of the response differed with respect to the various effector cell populations analyzed. Resident peritoneal cells and peripheral blood leukocytes demonstrated high NK activity on Days 3, 7, and 10. Peak spleen and bone marrow NK activity was observed on Day 3, returning to normal levels by Day 7. In contrast, peritoneal exudate cells, elicited with proteose peptone, expressed enhanced NK activity for 60 days following infection with viable Listeria. Augmented NK activity was detected with all cell types as early as 12 hr after infection. The intraperitoneal injection of nonviable antigenic preparations derived from L. monocytogenes, strain 10403, resulted in the enhancement of peritoneal and splenic NK activity. In contrast, mice that received an intraperitoneal injection of avirulent Listeria, strain 19113, failed to express enhanced levels of NK activity. The genetic trait of anti-listerial resistance which is associated with non-H-2 linked genes was of no importance with respect to enhanced NK activity. Listeria-resistant C57BL/6J and Listeria-susceptible DBA/2J mice both produced systemic augmentation of NK activity following infection. NK activity was not abrogated by macrophage depletion or by treatment with anti-Thy 1.2 serum plus complement. These results confirm the potent immunostimulatory capacity of virulent Listeria for NK activity and provide further insight into the kinetics of this response in various lymphoid compartments. The protracted augmentation of NK activity of elicited peritoneal exudate cells as compared to nonelicited peritoneal cells in Listeria-primed mice suggests that the influx of inflammatory cells may provide NK-enriched and/or accessory populations for immunopotentiation of NK activity in inflammatory sites.
