The role of T lymphocytes in disseminated candidiasis in a mouse model of irradiation-induced immunosuppression was investigated. A continuously cultured Candida albicans-specific T-cell line mediated protection of sublethally irradiated mice from disseminated candidiasis as measured by both the fungal load in the kidneys and mortality. These results are the first to demonstrate directly a role for antigen-specific T cells in the protective immune response against murine disseminated candidiasis.
研究了T淋巴细胞在辐射诱导免疫抑制小鼠模型的播散性念珠菌病中的作用。通过肾脏中的真菌负荷和死亡率测量,一种连续培养的白色念珠菌特异性T细胞系介导亚致死剂量照射小鼠免受播散性念珠菌病的侵害。这些结果首次直接证明了抗原特异性T细胞在针对小鼠播散性念珠菌病的保护性免疫反应中的作用。
