72 12668155 In mice cytokines IL-2, IL-12, IL-18, and GMCSF are observed to synergize with BCG for IFN-gamma production, whereas in human cytokines IL-2, IL-12, TNF-alpha, and IFN-alpha exhibit similar synergistic effects.
73 12668155 Rational combinations of these Th1-stimulating cytokines (IL-12 plus IL-18 in mice and IL-2 plus IL-12 in humans, respectively) dramatically up-regulate IFN-gamma production that is incomparably superior to BCG for induction of this cytokine.
74 12670905 Among the peptide fractions able to induce IFN-gamma release by MART-1-specific T cells, only fraction 43-44 activated IL-2 production by anti-MART-1 T cells, whereas the remaining two fractions acted as peptide antagonists by inhibiting IL-2 release in response to the native epitope.

77 15153510 Using plasmid vaccination with DNA encoding the putative phosphate transport receptor PstS-3 from Mycobacterium tuberculosis and 36 overlapping 20-mer peptides spanning the entire PstS-3 sequence, we determined the immunodominant Th1-type CD4(+) T cell epitopes in C57BL/10 mice, as measured by spleen cell IL-2 and IFN-gamma production.
78 15254748 Either therapeutic procedures aiming at up-regulation of MHC class I expression, or enhancement of MHC class I-unrestricted (CD4+, NK, NKT, gammadelta T) tumour defence effector mechanisms by dendritic cell-based therapeutic vaccines, by cytokines (IL-2, IL-12, IFNgamma, GM-CSF), or by the cytokine gene-based, genetically modified tumour vaccines should be considered.
79 15969102 The number of CD4 + CD8 + and the levels of IFN-gamma IL-2 increased significantly after immunization with pcDNA3.1/MAGE-3 plasmid as compared with those of control groups (P < 0.01).
80 15755994 Further enhancement was achieved with IL-2 through induction of the antiapoptosis protein Bcl-x(L).
81 15780449 The serum levels of interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) and interleukin-2 (IL-2) were increased, while no significant increase was observed in interleukin-4 (IL-4), interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-10 (IL-10) or tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha).

83 16184234 In the case of cytokines production were observed that interferon (IFN-gamma) and interlukin (IL-2) were significantly enhanced, while IL-4 and IL-10 was almost unchanged to make comparison between primary and secondary infection at 12 Gy irradiation dose.
84 16185742 Post-depletion, CD8 cells expanded in the presence of higher levels of neutralizing Ab and CD4 help than post-challenge and had superior maturational characteristics as measured by expression of the anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2, the IL-7 receptor CD127 and co-production of IFN-gamma and IL-2.
85 16300005 The level of IL-2 and IFN-gamma in group D increased significantly, while IL-4 secretion decreased (P < 0.01). 30 days after immunization, no higher titer of IgG antibody was shown in all groups.
86 16301632 However, only CD28 signals enabled target T cells to resist the early Treg-induced down-regulation of IL-2.
87 16125282 We have now studied the effect of combinations of IL-2 and IL-12 or IL-12 and GM-CSF mono-AbFPs during vaccination with ECD(HER2).

89 16168555 These results suggest that PhIP has potential immunosuppressive effects by inhibiting T-cell proliferation and IL-2 expression through down regulation of ROS generation and thereby inhibiting NF-kappaB, AP-1 and NF-AT activation.
90 16275895 Bovine natural killer (NK) cells were recently identified by positive selection of a NK cell-activating receptor p46 (NKp46)+ CD3- lymphocyte population, which expresses CD25 and CD8 and lyses tumor cell lines following stimulation with recombinant interleukin-2.

96 16982932 A single stimulation of CD8+ T cells from healthy virus carriers, and patients with HL with this adenoviral construct in combination with IL-2, was sufficient to reverse the functional T cell impairment and restored both IFN-gamma production and cytolytic function.
97 17000687 We found that (a) cytokine DNAs generally increased CD8+ T-cell responses against gp100; (b) ligation to Fc domains further enhanced T-cell responses; (c) adjuvant effects were sensitive to timing of DNA injection; (d) the most efficacious individual adjuvants for improving tumor-free survival were IL-12/Ig, IL-15/Ig, IL-21/Ig, GM-CSF/Ig, and CCL21; and (e) combinations of IL-2/Ig+IL-12/Ig, IL-2/Ig+IL-15/Ig, IL-12/Ig+IL-15/Ig, and IL-12/Ig+IL-21/Ig were most active; and (f) increased adjuvanticity of cytokine/Ig fusion DNAs was not related to higher tissue levels or greater stability.
98 17005692 The early CCR5+CD38+++ vaccinia virus-specific CD4+ T cells were similar to our previous observations of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-specific CD4+ T cells in primary HIV type 1 (HIV-1) infection, but the vaccinia virus-specific cells expressed much more CD127 and IL-2 than we previously found in their HIV-specific counterparts.
99 16966412 Effector phenotype is usually identified by gamma interferon (IFN-gamma) production, but interleukin-2 (IL-2) has been specifically linked to the differentiation of memory cells.
100 17086054 Nef-specific CD4 and CD8 memory T cells that produced intracellular IFN-gamma, interleukin-2, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha were assessed by flow cytometry.
101 17451739 Here we describe extensive studies to optimize and quantitatively validate the 8-color ICS assay for use in clinical trials of candidate vaccines, which includes measurement of viable IFN-gamma, IL-2, TNF-alpha and IL-4 producing CD4+ and CD8+ T cells.
102 17440051 SIV-specific PD-1(high)CD8+ T cells produced IFN-gamma, TNF-alpha, and IL-2 under cognate peptide stimulation.
103 17553885 CD4 T cells specific for each of the viruses produced all seven possible combinations of the cytokines gamma interferon (IFN-gamma), interleukin-2, and tumor necrosis factor alpha.
104 17563737 A multiplex enzyme linked immunoassay was used to determine levels of Th1 cytokines IL-2, IFN-gamma and tumour-necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), Th2 cytokines IL-4, IL-5 and IL-13, the regulatory cytokine IL-10 and the proinflammatory cytokines IL-1alpha, IL-1beta, IL-6 and the chemokine IL-8.
105 17633820 In comparison with PBS control, the level of IL-2, IFN-gamma and TNF-alpha was (30.0+/-0) pg/ml, (65.0+/-0) pg/ml and (425.0+/-10.7) pg/ml respectively in the intramuscular group with a significant increase, but that of IL-4 decreased, with a value of (10.0+/-0) pg/ml.
106 17641038 Responding T cells expressed multiple functions including degranulation (CD107a surface mobilization) and production of IFN-gamma, IL-2, TNF-alpha, and MIP-1beta.
107 17634505 Grossly, twice as many TT-specific CD4+ T-cell clones, ex vivo derived from the CCR7+/- CD69+ interleukin-2-positive (IL-2+) CD4+ subsets, belonged to the central memory (T(CM); CD62L+ CD27+ CCR7+) compared to the effector memory population (T(EM); CD62L- CD27- CCR7-).
108 17634507 The ability of DCs from HCV-infected persons to stimulate allogeneic CD4+ T cells or induce IL-2, IL-5, or IL-10 in a mixed lymphocyte reaction was not impaired.
109 17823271 HIV-1-specific helper-T-cell activity was studied by measuring the levels of interleukin 2 (IL-2) produced by peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and the granule-dependent CTL activity by measuring the intracellular levels of perforin and granzyme B expression in CD8+ T cells after stimulation with gag p24 antigen.
110 17850695 IFN-gamma could be detected early after rHB vaccination in adults, and the positive rates of IL-4 and IL-2 were correlated with that of anti-HBs.

113 18304707 Significant increases were noted in CD3(+), CD4(+), CD8(+), CD21(+), CD25(+), and gammadelta(+) cells against all four rAgs in vaccinated animals. rAg-specific expression of IL-2, IL-12p40, IFN-gamma and TNF-alpha was significantly higher in the two vaccinated groups.
114 18319583 Low level expressions of IL-1alpha, IL-1beta, TNFalpha and IL-10 and no expression of IL-2 and IL-4 were observed compared with the control camels.
115 18337575 While rAd5-Gag induced primarily gamma interferon-positive (IFN-gamma(+)) and IFN-gamma(+)/tumor necrosis factor alpha(+) (TNF-alpha(+)) T-lymphocyte responses, rAd26-Gag and rAd48-Gag induced higher proportions of interleukin-2(+) (IL-2(+)) and polyfunctional IFN-gamma(+)/TNF-alpha(+)/IL-2(+) T-lymphocyte responses.
116 18433946 IL-2 intracellular expression and IFN-gamma and TNF-alpha co-expression in HIV-1-specific CD8+ T cells were also substantially increased in the immunized group.
117 18473731 It has been demonstrated that the HPV 16 E6/E7 oncoproteins can serve as tumour rejection antigens (TRA) and that the HPV 16-associated tumour cells can be genetically modified with DNA encoding immunostimulatory cytokines (IL-2, IL-12, GM-CSF) or other immunostimulatory molecules, used for vaccination, and inhibit tumour growth.
118 18554756 We explored in the duck hepatitis B virus (DHBV) model the impact of duck interferon gamma (Du-IFNgamma) or interleukin 2 (Du-IL2) co-delivery on humoral neutralizing response induced by DNA-based vaccine encoding DHBV preS/S large envelope protein.
119 18667509 Analysis of the quality and quantity of vaccine-induced CD8(+) T cells demonstrated that SIV-specific CD8(+) T cells generated under conditions of CD4(+) T-cell deficiency expressed low levels of Bcl-2 and interleukin-2 (IL-2), and plasma virus levels increased over time.
120 19006834 It was revealed that fractions of neutrophilokines regulate IL-2 synthesis by Th1-helpers, IL-4 and IL-5 synthesis by Th2-helpers and also expression of IL-2 receptors by immunocompetent cells.
121 19017930 Adoptively transferred naive CD4(+) TCR-transgenic OT-II cells supported endogenous primary CD8(+) T cell responses, but IL-2-deficient OT-II cells were unable to provide help, although they responded to Ag in vivo and up-regulated CD40 ligand in vitro.
122 19133010 In this study we evaluated the immunogenicity and protective efficacy of the DNA vaccine encoding the fusion protein of Mycobacterium tuberculosis heat shock protein 65 (Hsp65) with human interleukin-2 (hIL-2) in BALB/c mice.
123 19445368 Also, these "central memory" CD4 T lymphocytes produce large quantities of IL-2, that they use in an autocrine manner, stimulating their self-renewal and ensuring their long-term survival.
124 18657205 Furthermore, CD26(high) cells can produce interleukin-2.
125 19264776 Peptides containing the epitopes stimulated RSV-specific CD4 T cells to produce gamma interferon (IFN-gamma), interleukin 2 (IL-2), and other Th1- and Th2-type cytokines in an I-A(b)-restricted pattern.
126 19264776 Peptide-activated CD4 T cells from lungs were more activated and differentiated, and had greater IFN-gamma expression, than CD4 T cells from the spleen, which, in contrast, produced greater levels of IL-2.
127 19264776 In addition, M(209-223) peptide-activated CD4 T cells reduced IFN-gamma and IL-2 production in M- and M2-specific CD8 T-cell responses to D(b)-M(187-195) and K(d)-M2(82-90) peptides more than M2(25-39) peptide-stimulated CD4 T cells.
128 19321612 Persistent cytokine responses of antigen-specific CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells of the central memory as well as the effector memory phenotype, capable of simultaneously eliciting multiple cytokines (IFN-gamma, interleukin 2, and tumor necrosis factor alpha), were induced.
129 19428898 In BALB/c mice the vaccine preparation induced antigen-specific multi-functional CD4(+) T cells capable of producing IFN-gamma, IL-2, and/or TNF-alpha upon antigen re-exposure, and MPL-SE was indispensable to direct immune responses to SMT towards Th1.
130 19435919 This correlated to the ability of CD8(+) T cells generated against LM-OVA, but not against ST-OVA, to produce interleukin 2 and exhibit profound homeostatic and antigen-induced proliferation in vivo.
131 19234357 The authors have shown previously that a recombinant HSV-1 that constitutively expresses two copies of murine IL-2 (HSV-IL-2) induces demyelination by activated CD8(+) T cells in the brain and spinal cord of ocularly infected female BALB/c mice.
132 19234357 The results demonstrate for the first time that a combination of viral infection and constitutive expression of IL-2, but not IFN-gamma or IL-4, can result in demyelination and visual impairment in the optic nerves of ocularly infected mice.
133 19483649 Using this model, we found that induction of lymphopenia before adoptive transfer of ex vivo anti-CD3/CD28 activated and interleukin-2 expanded D5-G6 tumor draining lymph node cells enhanced the antitumor efficacy of the infused cells in both pulmonary metastases and subcutaneous D5 bearing mice.
134 19587528 The Mtb72F antigen induced good production of IL-2 and IFNgamma in the ELISPOT assay and CD4(+) T cells expressing at least two activation markers (mainly CD40-L and IL-2) were observed with ICS.
135 19638322 The immunization preferentially stimulates the production of IFN-gamma and IL-2 in splenocytes which suggests a Th1 type response with a concomitant down-regulation of IL-10 and IL-4.
136 19726615 Blockade of PD-1, PD-L1, and PD-L2 using both freshly isolated and cryopreserved PBMC led to higher levels of phytohemagglutinin (PHA) and Candida-induced gamma interferon (IFN-gamma), interleukin-2 (IL-2), and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) with no effect on IL-10 production.
137 19726615 Candida-stimulated PBMC preferentially induced IFN-gamma and TNF-alpha production, with reduced production of IL-2 and IL-10.
138 19812258 The levels of interleukin-2, gamma interferon, and the ratios of immunoglobulin G2a (IgG2a)/IgG1 clearly showed that cocktail DNA vaccines induced CD4(+) Th1-type responses.
139 19768458 Here, we report that a therapeutic whole cell vaccine formulated with IL-2 adsorbed onto aluminum hydroxide as cytokine-depot formulation elicits potent antitumor immunity and induces delayed tumor growth, control of tumor dissemination and longer survival in mice challenged with A20-lymphoma.
140 20224065 CD4 T cells expressing IFN-gamma, IL-2, or both expressed a CD45RA(-)CCR7(-)CD27(+/-) effector memory phenotype.
141 20647327 In this study, we report that approximately 10,000 T cells gene-engineered to express a single-chain IL-12 molecule can be therapeutically effective against established tumors in the absence of exogenous IL-2 and vaccine.
142 20804089 The most significant forms of immunotherapy currently include the interferons, interleukin-2 and antibody therapy directed against a specific T-lymphocyte associated antigen (CTLA-4).
143 18449216 Supplementation with interleukin-2 (IL-2) increased transduction efficiency, whereas IL-7 and/or IL-15 provided no additional benefit.
144 20427628 The IL-12-induced increase in IFN-gamma was mainly mediated by CD4+ T cells that did not produce IL-2 or tumor necrosis factor (TNF).
145 20378136 In an in vivo experiment, the murine cytokines induced by VLPs of naked DNA vaccine showed that the Th1 indicators IL-2, TNF-alpha and GM-CSF, and the Th2 indicators IL-4 and IL-10 were increased.
146 20029165 CD45RO+/KLRG1+/CD57+/CD28-), enhanced IL-2 production and T-lymphocyte expression of the IL-2 receptor, longer chromosome telomere lengths in blood leukocytes and in vivo immune responses to vaccines and recall antigens.
147 20733200 This well-defined system allowed detailed mechanistic analysis, which revealed that 1) the Th1 cytokines IFN-gamma and IL-2 played key roles in CTL priming, namely by upregulating on naive CD8(+) T cells the chemokine receptor CCR5; 2) the inflammatory chemokines CCL4 (MIP-1beta) and CCL3 (MIP-1alpha) chemoattracted primed CD4(+) T cells to mature DCs and activated, naive CD8(+) T cells to DC-CD4 conjugates, respectively; and 3) blockade of these chemokines or their common receptor CCR5 ablated priming of CD8(+) T cells and upregulation of sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor 1.
148 20725863 The P38 and ERK Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase (MAPK) pathways govern the regulation of cytokines (IL-2, IL-10, and TNF-?) as well biomarkers (PD-1, Fas/FasL, among others) that are skewed in chronic HIV infection.
149 20709527 In metastatic disease, high CA9 expression by IHC was reported to be a powerful prognostic marker with better survival and sensitivity to IL-2, but this is still debated.
150 20336365 Furthermore, significantly higher secretion of IL-2 was detected in peripheral blood mononuclear cells after stimulation with p53-transfected DCs from patients with p53(high) tumor expression compared to patients with p53(low) tumor expression, whereas secretion of IL-10 was predominant in the latter group.
151 20079393 The minor allele variants of three OAS1 SNPs (rs3741981/Ser162Gly, rs1051042/Thr361Arg, rs2660), located in a linkage disequilibrium block of functional importance, were significantly associated with an increase in rubella virus-specific IL-2/T(h)1 response (p
152 20079393 Seven OAS1 and OAS3 promoter/regulatory SNPs were similarly associated with IL-2 secretion.
153 18354238 IL-2 is well described as a cytokine with two markedly distinct functionalities: as a necessary signal during CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cell activation/expansion and as an essential cytokine for the maintenance of CD4(+)CD25(+)FoxP3(+) T cells (regulatory T (T(REG)) cells) during homeostasis.
154 18354238 IL-2 complex led to an increase in the number of Ag-specific effector/memory CD8(+) T cells, cytokine production, and CTL lysis following Ag-specific restimulation in a vaccination setting.
155 18354238 Moreover, in contrast to the use of IL-2 alone, IL-2 complex greatly increased the ratio of effector/memory CD8(+) T cells to T(REG) cells.
156 21186260 Following tuberculin stimulation, activated CD4 T cells were identified by flow-cytometry (CD154 up-regulation, degranulation, interferon ? [IFN-?], tumor necrosis factor ? [TNF-?], and interleukin 2 [IL-2 production).
157 20977918 Therefore, we analyzed the ability of this cytokine to modulate the properties of human CD8 T cells in comparison with other ?(c)-sharing cytokines (IL-2, IL-7, and IL-15).
158 21177920 Polyclonal stimulation of NF-?B-deficient sarcoid T cells resulted in reduced expression of CD69 and CD154, decreased proliferation, and cytokine (i.e., interleukin 2 [IL-2] and gamma interferon [IFN-?]) production.
159 20362206 The preS2 epitope favored a well-balanced response with CD4+ and CD8+ T cells producing IFN-gamma, IL-2 and TNF-alpha.
160 20861328 The Mtb72F-specific CD4(+) T cells predominantly expressed CD40L; CD40L and interleukin-2 (IL-2); CD40L and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-?); CD40L, IL-2, and TNF-?; and CD40L, IL-2, TNF-?, and gamma interferon (IFN-?).
161 20963411 An increase in PADRE-specific CD4+ T helper cells was observed after vaccination but these appeared unable to produce IL2, and CD4+ T cells with a regulatory phenotype increased.
162 21208909 Antigen-specific CD4(+) T cells exhibited a polyfunctional phenotype, expressing at least CD40 ligand and interleukin 2, often in combination with tumor necrosis factor ? and/or interferon ?.
163 20679213 This coexpression of Tim-3 and PD-1 was associated with more severe CD8 T-cell exhaustion in terms of proliferation and secretion of effector cytokines such as IFN-gamma, TNF-alpha, and IL-2.
164 20188249 Ad5-specific CD4(+) T cells were primarily monofunctional CD4(+) T cells that produced IL-2, IFN-gamma or TNFalpha and expressed the memory markers CD27 and CD45RO.
165 20100932 In this study, we found that CD86 was highly expressed on HCV-specific CD8(+) T cells early in acute HCV infection and was lost on transition to chronic HCV infection; the expression of CD86 was different from other activation markers, because expression was delayed after in vitro TCR stimulation and required sufficient IL-2 signaling; and HCV-specific CD8(+) T cells in the liver of patients with chronic HCV infection were highly activated (CD69, CD38, and HLA-DR expression), but only a minority expressed CD86 or showed evidence of recent IL-2 signaling (low basal phosphorylated STAT5), despite persistent viremia.
166 20100932 Our study identified B7 ligand expression on HCV-specific CD8(+) T cells as a distinct marker of effective T cell stimulation with IL-2 signaling in acute HCV infection.
167 18273057 Thus, our data suggest that activated PADRE-specific CD4(+) T helper cells may be required at the vicinity of E7-specific CD8(+) T cells where they secrete IL-2, which enhances the E7-specific CD8(+) T-cell immune responses generated by DNA vaccination.
168 21317390 The efficacy of two SIV DNA plus recombinant modified vaccinia virus Ankara nasal vaccine regimens, one combined with plasmids expressing IL-2 and IL-15, the other with plasmids expressing GM-CSF, IL-12, and TNF-?, which may better stimulate humoral responses, was evaluated in two female rhesus macaque groups.
169 17087116 Before SIT treatment, compared with the normal control group, the patients' serum level of Th2 cytokines IL-4 and total IgE had significantly increased, the level of Th1 cytokines IL-2 had significantly reduced.
170 17087116 After 12 months SIT treatment, the patients' serum IL-2 showed increased, the serum IL-4 and total IgE showed reduced, the difference was statistical significant (t = 7.303, 2.494, 2.225, P < 0.05).
171 21307196 This was confirmed by flow cytometry analyses of expression of CD3/CD8/PD-1/Tim-3, HSV-1, CD8(+) T cell pentamer (specific for a peptide derived from residues 498 to 505 of glycoprotein B [gB(498-505)]), interleukin-2 (IL-2), and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-?).
172 21282337 Overall, our results suggest the potential of anti-human IL-23 mAbs to improve the immunostimulatory effects of IL-2 and trastuzumab in the current management of some advanced human cancers.
173 21460206 In this interaction, CD4(+) T(EM) cells express CD40L, which matures the endogenous DCs, and produce cytokines, such as IL-2, which activates NK cells.
174 21482735 In this study, we demonstrate that IL-2 complex therapy can have discerning effects on CD8(+) T cells depending on their stage of differentiation.
175 21482735 These studies demonstrate how differentiation status of the responding CD8(+) T cells impacts on their responsiveness to IL-2 complexes and highlight that timing of treatment should be considered before implementing this therapy in a clinical setting.
176 21533158 Further, characterization of T cell responses in mice demonstrates that protection against TB is predictable by the frequency of CD4 T cells simultaneously producing interferon (IFN)?, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)? and IL2.
177 21556142 Whole blood antigen stimulation followed by intra-cellular cytokine staining showed RTS,S/AS01(E) induced CSP specific CD4 T cells producing IL-2, TNF-?, and IFN-?.
178 21355077 IL15 promotes T-cell expression of the antiapoptotic bcl-2 and inhibits candidate regulatory T-cell (Treg) expansion after DC stimulation, countering two effects of IL2 that do not foster tumor immunity.
179 20719985 These new HHV-8 epitopes activated monofunctional and polyfunctional CD8(+) T cells that produced various combinations of gamma interferon, interleukin 2, tumor necrosis factor alpha, macrophage inhibitory protein 1?, and cytotoxic degranulation marker CD107a in healthy HHV-8-seropositive individuals.
180 21504776 A correlated expression between pro-inflammatory cytokines and anti-inflammatory cytokines was only seen in spleen of ERM vaccinated fish, where a Th1-like response was indicated by the correlated gene expression of IFN-?, T-bet and IL-2.
181 12554523 However, IFN-gamma could upregulate the expression of HLA class I antigens by IL-2 transfected A673 cells.
182 20471443 Furthermore, multifunctional CD4(+) Th1 cells, which simultaneously produce IFN-gamma, IL-2 and TNF-alpha triple cytokines, and CD8(+) T-cells, which produce IFN-gamma were elevated in the mCD40L/SHIV-VLP immunized group.
183 21720558 These CD4+CD44(hi)CD62L(lo)CD27? T cells concomitantly produce IFN-? and TNF-?, or IFN-?, IL-2 and TNF-? and have a higher cytokine median fluorescence intensity MFI or 'quality of response' than single cytokine producing cells.
184 21779319 We also demonstrated for the first time that there is a strong association between the frequency of CSP peptide-reactive CD4(+) T cells producing IL-2 and the titers of CSP-specific antibodies in the same individual, suggesting that IL-2 may be acting as a growth factor for follicular Th cells and/or B cells.
185 21625608 MVA-B-infected MDDC co-cultured with autologous T lymphocytes induced a highly functional HIV-specific CD8(+) T cell response including proliferation, secretion of IFN-?, IL-2, TNF-?, MIP-1?, MIP-1?, RANTES and IL-6, and strong cytotoxic activity against autologous HIV-1-infected CD4(+) T lymphocytes.
186 15864608 Peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) proliferation with phytohaemagglutinin (PHA), CEA and PR1A3, stimulated IL-2, IL-4 and IFN-gamma levels and PR1A3-stimulated IL-2 receptor expression during immunotherapy were determined.
187 21570434 CD4+ and CD8+ T cell populations exhibited CD45RO memory markers and secreted IFN-gamma and IL-2 following stimulation with MUC1-SP-L.
188 21858087 Further, we show that B/D immunization in mice results in a heightened frequency of PPD and antigen specific multi-functional CD4 T cells (3(+)) simultaneously producing interferon (IFN)?, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)? and interleukin (IL)2.
189 14563689 In contrast to subcutaneous immunization with MOG, in vitro cytokine secretion assays (IL-2, IL-10, and IFN-gamma) did not reveal activation of MOG-specific T cells after intrasplenic immunization.
190 21784871 Furthermore, we showed that treatment with these NPs resulted in priming of the immune TME, characterized by increased IFN-?, p-STAT-1, GM-CSF, IL-2, IL-15, and IL-12b and reduced TGF-?, IL-6, and IL-10 protein expression.
191 20465573 NHP CD8alphaalpha(+) T cells produced tumour necrosis factor-alpha / interferon-gamma (TNF-alpha/IFN-gamma) or TNF-alpha, whereas human CD8alphaalpha(+) T cells produced simultaneously TNF-alpha/IFN-gamma and IL-2.
192 21637109 Cell lines were tested for their ability to produce effector molecules (CD107a, IL-2, IFN-?, TNF-?, perforin) and suppress virus replication in autologous CD4 T cells.
193 15585842 Activation of tumor-specific CD8(+) pmel-1 T cells with IL-2 and vaccination with an altered peptide ligand caused regression of gp100-positive tumors (B16), but not gp100-negative tumors (methylcholanthrene 205), implanted on opposing flanks of the same mouse.
194 17523874 In the second experiments, (1) tinctures from E. pallida, E. paradoxa, E. sanguinea, and E. simulata diminished influenza-specific IL-2, and (2) none of the extracts influenced influenza-specific IL-10 or IFN-gamma.
195 21722683 This study demonstrates that administration of trivalent influenza vaccine (TIV) with the cationic liposome adjuvant system CAF01 enhances the humoral immune response as measured by hemagglutinin inhibition titers and influenza-specific serum antibody titers, and promote a strong Th1 response with augmented levels of IL-1?, IL-2, IL-12, IFN-? and TNF-?.
196 9072306 To induce MART-1(27-35)-specific CTL, PBMC were incubated with 1 microM peptide (on day 0) and interleukin-2 (IL-2) (300 IU/mL, on days 1 and 4 after each stimulation).
197 19386801 Functional evaluation of the expanded number of CD4+ IL-23R+ cells in the presence of different cytokines with anti-CD3/CD28 revealed that all cytokines used (IL-2, IL-7, IL-12, IL-15, and IL-23) increased the amount of IFN-gamma secreted by IL-23R+ CD4+ cells at different levels.
198 21424379 We observed an additional 12 associations (p < 0.01) between coding (nonsynonymous and synonymous) polymorphisms within the TLRs (TLR2, 7, and 8), IKBKE, TICAM1, NFKBIA, IRAK2, and KIAA1542 genes and variations in measles-specific IL-2, IL-6, IFN-?, IFN-?, IFN?-1, and TNF-? secretion levels.
199 19526193 Cytometry analysis indicated that the majority of memory CD8(+) T cells produced IFN-gamma, whereas memory CD4(+) T cells produced IFN-gamma, IL-2 or TNF-alpha.
200 21926463 The lower survival levels observed in memory B cells from ST subjects were the result of disrupted IL-2 signaling that led to increased transcriptional activity of Foxo3a and increased expression of its proapoptotic target TRAIL.
201 21980478 Four out of the twenty-five 9-mer peptides tested: peptides 3 (F33-41), 13 (F214-222), 14 (F273-281), and 23 (F559-567), were found to bind to HLA-A*0201 with moderate to high affinity and were capable of inducing IFN-? and IL-2 secretion in lymphocytes from HLA-A*0201 transgenic (HLA-Tg) mice pre-immunized with RSV or recombinant adenovirus expressing RSV F.
202 20686664 Our results indicate that both the HCV TCR-transduced CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells recognized the HCV NS3:1073-1081 peptide-loaded targets and HCV(+) hepatocellular carcinoma cells (HCC) in a polyfunctional manner with cytokine (IFN-gamma, IL-2, and TNF-alpha) production as well as cytotoxicity.
203 15897626 Interferon (IFN)-gamma, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha, transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta, interleukin (IL)-1beta, IL-2, IL-10, IL-12p40, granulocyte-macrophage-colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and iNOS mRNA expression were detected significantly and reproducibly when these primer sets were used.
204 22025707 CD28 signaling is known to abrogate Treg suppression of IL-2 secretion and proliferation, but our studies show that Treg suppression of IFN-? during Th1 priming proceeds despite enhanced CD28 signaling.
