“…Furthermore, it has been demonstrated that anti-CCL5 antibodies decrease the sizes of pulmonary granuloma lesions in M. bovis BCGinfected mice, suggesting a functional role for CCL5 in murine mycobacterial granulomas (28). Our results have provided evidence that in vitro, M. bovis BCG stimulates human monocytes to produce CC chemokines and that mobilization of intracellular Ca 2ϩ and the CD40 molecule are critical for the induction of CCL5 (25). However, the effects of JNK and NF-B on TLR2-mediated CCL2 or CCL5 pro-duction in epithelial cells are mostly unknown.…”

“…This suggested that immunization with tuberculosis germs might be critical for the induction of DP monocytes. To test this hypothesis, we examined whether the cytokines and chemokines known to be induced by the recombinant Mycobacterium bovis bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) [32][33][34] can induce DP monocytes in vitro. PBMCs from F344 rats were stimulated with IL-12, RANTES, or GM-CSF for 24 hours and then the percentage of DP monocytes was measured.…”

“…We examined the early interactions between M. leprae and monocytes isolated from the blood of M. leprae-naïve healthy donors. As a positive control in our studies, we used Mycobacterium bovis bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG), which is a potent stimulant of innate immune response (25,43) used widely as a vaccine for tuberculosis in humans.…”
