Use of a novel antigen expressing system to study the Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi protein recognition by T cells

Abstract: Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi (S. Typhi), the causative agent of the typhoid fever, is a pathogen of great public health importance. Typhoid vaccines have the potential to be cost-effective measures towards combating this disease, yet the antigens triggering host protective immune responses are largely unknown. Given the key role of cellular-mediated immunity in S. Typhi protection, it is crucial to identify S. Typhi proteins involved in T-cell responses. Here, cells from individuals immunized with Ty21a t… Show more

“…The type of antigen used for in vitro stimulation influence the responses of CD4+T M . Thus, we addressed this issue by using S. Typhi-infected targets (moderately efficient CD4+ T stimulation) and Ty21a homogenate antigens (an efficient CD4+ T stimulation) [51] to stimulate CD4+T RM subsets. Remarkably, our results indicate that following stimulation with Ty21a homogenate antigens, LPMC CD103+T RM largely produced significantly higher levels of S. Typhi-specific IFNγ-MF, IL-2-MF and TNFα-MF in Ty21a vaccinated participants than those in the unvaccinated group.…”

“…Autologous target cells (EBV-B) generated as described above were infected with wt S. Typhi strain (ISP1820, Vi + , a clinical isolate from Chile) (16) at a multiplicity of infection of 7:1 as previously described (9, 22, 30). Briefly, the targets and bacteria were incubated for 3 h at 37°C in RPMI without antibiotics, washed three times with cRMPI and incubated overnight with cRPMI containing 150 μg ml −1 gentamicin.…”
