1 21928282 Importantly, the lack of IL-15 was found to shape the functional activity of antigen-specific CD8(+) T cells, by narrowing the CTL avidity repertoire.
2 15582662 Furthermore, administration of either plasmid DNA encoding IL-15 or anti-CD40 mAb but not rIL-12 during the memory phase restored the reactivity of memory CD8(+) T cells.
3 15817700 In a DNA immunization against Herpes simplex virus (HSV), we examined the ability of plasmid-encoded interleukin-15 (pIL-15) to induce and maintain the mucosal B and T cell immune response. pIL-15 generated memory CD8(+) T cell responses that were threefold higher and mainly maintained in the spleen, but high levels of immunoglobulin A antibodies were induced and maintained long-term in the vaginal mucosa.
4 15972637 In this study we test the feasibility of delivering a plasmid encoding IL-15 as a DNA vaccine adjuvant for the induction of improved Ag-specific CD8(+) T cellular immune responses.
5 16025264 There has been a recent interest in using IL-15 to enhance antitumor activity in several models because of its ability to stimulate CD8+ T cell expansion, inhibit apoptosis and promote memory T cell survival and maintenance.
6 16025264 In this study, we determined whether IL-15 used as immunologic adjuvant would augment vaccine-primed CD8+ T cell immunity against C6VL and further improve the survival of tumor-bearing mice.
7 16025264 We report that IL-15 given after C6VL lysate-pulsed dendritic cell vaccines stimulated local and systemic expansion of NK, NKT and CD8+ CD44hi T cells.
8 16025264 This suggests that the adjuvant potential of IL-15 may be greatest in settings where it can augment the number and activity of preexisting tumor-specific CD8+ T cells.
9 16619285 Hence, our results implicate IL-15 and NKG2D as promising targets for modulating CD8+ T cell-mediated protection against tuberculosis.
10 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.
11 17005004 Interleukin (IL)-7 and IL-15 are cytokines implicated in homeostatic control of the peripheral CD8 T-cell pool.
12 17005004 We compared the effects of IL-7 and IL-15 on survival and proliferation of purified human CD8+ T-cell subsets.
13 17005004 These data show that IL-7 and IL-15 induce cell proliferation and rescue from apoptosis in a concentration, time and subset-dependent manner, and have implications for the homeostatic expansion of the naïve CD8+ T-cell pool.
14 18425373 IL-15, either alone or in combination with the B78/IL-12 vaccine, influenced infiltration of tumors with CD3(+) lymphocytes, CD4(+)and CD8(+).
15 18462844 IL-7 and IL-15 are key cytokines involved in the generation and maintenance of memory CD8+ T-cells.
16 19530914 In particular, IL-15 binds to a unique high-affinity receptor, IL-15R alpha; is trans-presented to CD8(+) T cells expressing the common betagamma chain; and has been shown to play a role in the generation, maintenance, and proliferation of antigen-specific CD8(+) T cells.
17 20582165 Here, using an in vitro system where activated CD8 T cells driven by IL-2 or IL-15 become either effector memory or central memory cells, we assessed the role of microRNAs in memory T cell fate determination.
18 20719708 Recent data also suggest that IL-15 acts, not only on CD8+ T cells and natural killer cells, but also on effector memory CD4+ T cells.
19 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).
20 20086176 Interleukin-15 (IL-15) stimulates the diffrentiation and proliferation of T, B, and natural killer cells; enhances CD8(+) cytolytic T-ceII activity; helps maintain CD44(hi)CD8(+) memory T cells; and stimulates immunoglobulin synthesis by B cells.
21 18097036 Although IL-15 induced a 2- to 3-fold increase in SIV-specific CD8+ T cell and NK cell numbers at peak viremia and reduced lymph node (LN) SIV-infected cells, this had no impact on peak viremia and did not lower viral set point.
22 21346231 Nevertheless, ?HV68-specific NKG2A(+)KLRG1(+) CD8 T cells express IL-7 and IL-15 receptors, can survive long-term without cognate Ag, and subsequently mount a protective response during antigenic recall.
23 21474552 Previous work in murine systems indicated that IL-15 codelivered with vaccines could overcome CD4(+) Th cell deficiency for induction of functionally efficient CD8(+) T cells and maintenance of viral-specific CTLs, but its efficacy in helping primary human CD8(+) T cell responses is unknown.
24 21757617 IL-15 was able to induce the transient proliferation of SIV-specific, CMV-specific, and total memory CD8(+) T cells, but not of SIV-specific or total CD4(+) T cells.
