The development of Chlamydia pneumoniae-specific cell-mediated immunity was studied during a primary C. pneumoniae infection. The immune response was detected as positive lymphocyte proliferation and secretion of interferon gamma. C. pneumoniae-induced activation of both CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells was detected in the early phase of infection, but activation of only CD4(+) T cells was detected in the later stage.
在肺炎衣原体初次感染期间,对肺炎衣原体特异性细胞介导免疫的发展进行了研究。免疫反应通过淋巴细胞增殖阳性和γ干扰素分泌来检测。在感染早期检测到肺炎衣原体诱导的CD4(+)和CD8(+) T细胞均被激活,但在后期仅检测到CD4(+) T细胞被激活。
