Mice depleted of gammadelta T cells by monoclonal antibody treatment and infected with Plasmodium berghei ANKA did not develop cerebral malaria (CM). In striking contrast, delta0/0 mice infected with P. berghei developed CM despite their gammadelta T-cell deficiency. gammadelta T cells appear to be essential for the pathogenesis of CM in mice having experienced normal ontogeny but not in mice genetically deprived of gammadelta T cells from the beginning of life.
通过单克隆抗体处理耗尽γδT细胞并感染伯氏疟原虫ANKA的小鼠未发生脑型疟疾(CM)。与之形成鲜明对比的是,感染伯氏疟原虫的δ0/0小鼠尽管存在γδT细胞缺陷,但仍发生了CM。γδT细胞似乎对于经历正常个体发育的小鼠的CM发病机制至关重要,但对于从生命开始就基因缺失γδT细胞的小鼠则并非如此。
