Naive CD4+ and CD8+ T cells develop into Th9 and Tc9 cells in the presence of IL-4 and TGF-b. Tc9 cells support Th2-mediated experimental lung inflammation by increasing the symptoms. Recently, it was demonstrated that animals fed with a rich-fiber diet were protected from experimental lung inflammation due to the modulation of short chain fatty acid (SCFA)-producing microbiota. Additiona…
The microbiota has a crucial role in the development of gut-associated lymphoid tissue, polarization of immune responses and prevention against pathogen colonization. The secretion of cytokines (IL-1b, IL-6 and IL-18) in response to commensal bacteria and some microbiota metabolites (ATP and short-chain fatty acids) contribute to gut homeostasis and generation of lymphoid cells, such as I…
Induction of T-cell based immune responses has shown high potential against both SIV and HIV-1 infection and has become the focus of novel vaccine platforms. Mounting evidences suggest that CD4+ T-cells are important to viral control by either helping CD8+ T-cell-mediated immune responses or exerting direct citotoxic effect on infected cells, which make them interesting targets for vaccin…
