ELISPOT and intracellular cytokine staining: Novel assays for quantifying T cell responses in the chicken

Abstract: SummaryThe measurement of T cell responses in chickens, not only for quantitative aspects but also for the qualitative nature of the responses, becomes increasingly important. However, there are very few assays available to measure T cell function. Therefore, we have developed enzyme-linked immunosorbent spot assay (ELISPOT) and an intracellular cytokine staining (ICCS) assay. ELISPOT assay for the detection of chicken interferongamma (ChIFN-g) production was set up and shown to be reproducible for both polycl… Show more

“…Infectious bronchitis virus-specific T lymphocytes of infected chickens have been detected via cytotoxicity assay (Seo & Collisson, 1997), and transfer of infectious bronchitis virus-specific T lymphocytes to naïve chicks resulted in protection against virulent challenge infection (Seo et al, 2000). Newcastle disease virus-specific T-cell activity has been quantified by ex vivo recall stimulation of leukocytes and subsequent detection of antigeninduced interferon gamma production via ELISA, ELI-SPOT or intracellular cytokine staining (Lambrecht et al, 2004;Ariaans et al, 2008). However, methods to detect aMPV-specific T lymphocytes in poultry and especially in turkeys remain to be developed.…”

“…Pools of irrelevant peptides were used to control for background responses. IFN-γ ELISpot was carried out using the Chicken IFN-γ CytoSet™ (Life Technologies, UK) as described previously [10]. Briefly, 96-well multiscreen plates with Protein Binding Immobilon-P-Membrane (Millipore, Billerica,USA) were coated with 100 μL/well of 5 mg/ml mouse anti-chicken IFN-γ (Life Technologies, UK) in coating buffer (Sigma–Aldrich, UK) overnight at 4 °C.…”

“…Indirect concentrations were determined using a nitric oxide detection assay following incubation with a chicken macrophage line and the direct concentrations were determined using a commercial ELISA (Invitrogen, La Jolla, CA) (Ariaans et al, 2008; Lambrecht et al, 2004). Each ex vivo stimulation assay was conducted in duplicate.…”
