Enhanced protection against tuberculosis by vaccination with recombinant Mycobacterium microti vaccine that induces T cell immunity against region of difference 1 antigens

Stewart Cole

Mycobacterium microti, the vole bacillus, which was used as a live vaccine against tuberculosis until the 1970s, confers the same protection in humans as does Mycobacterium bovis bacille Calmette-Guerin (BCG). However, because the efficacy of the BCG vacci ...

Specific recognition of the viral protein UL18 by CD85j/LIR-1/ILT2 on CD8+ T cells mediates the non-MHC-restricted lysis of human cytomegalovirus-infected cells

Lucia Baldi Unser

Immune evasion mechanisms of human CMV are known; however, the immune control of infection remains poorly elucidated. We show that interaction between the viral protein UL18 on infected cells and the invariant receptor CD85j/LIR-1/ILT2 expressed on CTL is ...

Public, private and non-specific antibodies induced by non-cytopathic viral infections

Nicola Harris

Lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) represents a useful experimental model of murine infection with a non-cytopathic virus, bearing resemblance to HIV and hepatitis C virus (HCV) infections in humans. Recent data from the LCMV model indicate that the ...

The road to Toll

Bruno Lemaitre

A few years ago, it would have been difficult to argue that elucidating the mechanisms of disease resistance in the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster, would provide new insights into mammalian immunity. Yet the finding that the Drosophila protein Toll med ...

Bystander suppression of allergic airway inflammation by lung resident memory CD8+ T cells

Nicola Harris, Benjamin John Marsland

CD8+ memory T cells have recently been recognized as playing a key role in natural immunity against unrelated viral infections, a phenomenon referred to as "heterologous antiviral immunity." We now provide data that the cellular immunological interactions ...

Interactions between commensal intestinal bacteria and the immune system

Nicola Harris, Andrew J. Macpherson

Although we might shudder at the thought of billions of bacteria living in our lower intestine, we are colonized by these passengers shortly after birth. However, the relationship is mostly of mutual benefit, and they shape our immune system throughout lif ...

An Artificial Immune System for Misbehavior Detection in Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks with Virtual Thymus, Clustering, Danger Signal and Memory Detectors

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Slavisa Sarafijanovic

In mobile ad-hoc networks, nodes act both as terminals and information relays, and participate in a common routing protocol, such as Dynamic Source Routing (DSR). The network is vulnerable to routing misbehavior, due to faulty or malicious nodes. Misbehavi ...
