Effect of the inactivated new tuberculosis vaccine strain(B/R strain)on the immune memory of T lymphocytes in mice / 中国人兽共患病学报

ABSTRACT

To investigate the effect of inactivated new tu-berculosis vaccine strain(B/R strain)on immune memory of T lymphocytes in mice,C57BL/6 mice were immunized with PBS,BCG strain,B/R strain and inactivated B/R strain.At week 9,12 and 15 after immunization,the spleens of each group were taken,and the spleen lymphocytes were extracted.Half of the spleen lymphocytes in each group were directly de-tected,and the rest were cultured in vitro and stimulated with PPD according to the experimental design.Flow cytometry was used to detect the number of central memory T cells(TCM)and effector memory T cells(TEM)in spleen lymphocytes of uns-timulated and stimulated mice.Without PPD stimulation after immunization,the CD4+TCM(F=13.20,P＜0.05)and CD4+TEM(F=28.15,P＜0.05)induced by inactivated B/R group,B/R group and BCG group was higher than that of PBS group at week 9.The induced CD8+TCM(F=8.92,P＜0.05)and CD8+TEM(F=6.13,P＜0.05)was higher than that of PBS group.At week 12,the CD4+TCM(F=15.97,P＜0.05)and CD4+TEM(F=13.60,P＜0.05)induced by each group was higher than that of PBS group.The induced CD8+TCM(F=5.52,P＜0.05)and CD8+TEM(F=20.15,P＜0.05)was higher than that of PBS group.At week 15,the CD4+TCM(F=15.40,P＜0.05)and CD4+TEM(F=7.43,P＜0.05)induced by each group was higher than that of PBS group.The induced CD8+TCM(F=6.57,P＜0.05)and CD8+TEM(F=9.27,P＜0.05)was higher than that of PBS group.At week 9,the CD4+TCM(F=9.66,P＜0.05)and CD4+TEM(F=11.20,P＜0.05)induced by inacti-vated B/R group,B/R group and BCG group was higher than that of PBS group.The induced CD8+TCM(F=7.24,P＜0.05)and CD8+TEM(F=9.30,P＜0.05)was higher than that of PBS group.At week 12,the CD4+TCM(F=9.33,P＜0.05)and CD4+TEM(F=6.94,P＜0.05)induced by each group was higher than that of PBS group.The induced CD8+TCM(F=67.71,P＜0.05)and CD8+TEM(F=10.86,P＜0.05)was higher than that of PBS group.At week 15,the CD4+TCM(F=39.88,P＜0.05)and CD4+TEM(F=11.93,P＜0.05)induced by each group was higher than that of PBS group.The induced CD8+TCM and CD8+TEM(F=38.47,P＜0.05)was higher than that of PBS group(F=138.80,P＜0.05).It is worth noting that at week 15,the CD8+TCM(qinactivated B/R=12.24,qB/R=12.61,P＜0.05)and CD8+TEM(qinactivated B/R=7.19,qB/R=5.00,P＜0.05)induced by inactivated B/R group and B/R group were higher than those of BCG group.The immunizing mice with inactivated B/R strain,the ability of inducing immune memory of T lymphocytes in mice was equivalent to that of B/R strain.Heat-inacti-vation did not affect the ability of B/R strain to induce immune memory in mice.
