Discovery of an organized nasopharynx-associated lymphoid tissue in the nasal cavity of rainbow trout and its role in secondary adaptive immune responses to nasal vaccines

Abstract: The olfactory organ of all vertebrates is constantly exposed to pathogens. The nasal mucosa is therefore equipped with a local immune system that protects the host from infection. In teleost fish, we previously described the presence of a diffuse nasopharynx-associated lymphoid tissue (NALT) found in the olfactory lamellae. This diffuse NALT (d-NALT) consists of myeloid and lymphoid cells but lacks an organized structure. Rainbow trout d-NALT mounts quick innate immune responses as well as adaptive immune resp… Show more
