Direct Analysis of the Dynamics of the Intestinal Mucosa CD8 T Cell Response to Systemic Virus Infection

Abstract: The CD8 T cell response to vesicular stomatitis virus infection was characterized in the spleen and intestinal mucosa using MHC tetramers. Surprisingly, the primary response persisted in the lamina propria long after the splenic response had declined. Furthermore, the response was characterized by a protracted effector phase in which cytolytic activity in the lamina propria, but not in the spleen, was maintained. The appearance of Ag-specific cells in the intestinal mucosa was largely, though not exclusively, … Show more

“…This result is consistent with the observations of others, showing that the memory CTL response after boosting is approximately 50% of the recall response (28). At the peak of the primary response to Env after vaccination with vPE16, ϳ6% of CD8 ϩ cells stained with MHC-I Env tetramers, compared to ϳ40% for VSV-Env-vaccinated mice (16).…”

“…Thus, although many cells responding late after infection had lost CFSE, the retention of a population of CFSE ϩ cells suggested that antigen levels were limiting late after infection. We also measured CD11a expression, since this integrin is upregulated upon T-cell activation and remains at high levels on memory CD8 T cells (31). Bona-fide memory OT-I cells generated by primary infection were uniformly CD11a high , and most OT-I cells derived from transfer late after infection expressed similarly high levels of CD11a (Fig.…”

“…Donor CFSE-labeled cells were detected using their CD45 allele status. Ova-specific cells were detected using H-2K b tetramers containing the Ova-derived SIINFEKL peptide as previously described (1,31). For staining, lymphocytes were suspended in PBS-0.2% bovine serum albumin (BSA)-0.01% NaN 3 at a concentration of ϳ1 ϫ 10 7 /ml.…”

“…Studies comparing the kinetics of primary and secondary T cell responses in the same animal have shown that the contraction phase of the secondary CD8 ϩ T cell response is prolonged compared with that of the primary response (17,48,(61)(62)(63)(64). Studies by Grayson et al have demonstrated that memory T cells are more resistant than naive T cells to apoptosis (47) and have elevated levels of the antiapoptotic factor Bcl-2 (65).…”
