50 8757841 Development of a vaccine which is capable of generating a strong cellular immune response associated with gamma interferon (IFN-gamma) production and cytotoxic T-cell development requires that the immunogen be capable of inducing the secretion of interleukin-12 (IL-12), which is a pivotal factor for the differentiation of Th1 or Tc1 cells.

81 8977282 Interleukin-10 and interleukin-4 have similar effects on hapten-specific primary antibody responses to penicillin in vivo.
82 8977282 Interleukin (IL)-10 was initially recognized on the basis of its capacity to inhibit production of interferon (IFN)-gamma by T helper (Th)1 lymphocytes; we examined whether this cytokine can bias the primary antibody (Ab) response to the hapten penicillin.
83 8977282 Neutralization on administration of IL-10 had effects very similar to neutralization or administration of IL-4.
84 8977282 However, co-neutralization of IL-10 and IL-4 in SJL did not evidence additive or synergistic effects of the two cytokines.
85 8977282 Administration of IL-10 or IL-4 in BALB/c inhibited BPO-TT-induced expression of IL-12 p40 mRNA without modulating IFN-gamma mRNA.
86 8977282 Together, these data demonstrate that endogenous production of IL-10 regulates the production of IgG2a Ab in response to BPO-TT and that IL-10, like IL-4, is critical for controlling primary responses to antibiotics which behave as haptenic compounds.

96 9394829 IC formed of tetanus toxoid and polyclonal anti-tetanus toxoid antiserum as well as heat-aggregated human serum IgG almost completely inhibited IL-12 (p70 and p40) secretion induced by interferon-gamma and lipopolysaccharide in human blood-derived monocytes.
97 9394829 Neutralizing anti-IL-10 antibodies plus indomethacin restored IL-12 secretion in the presence of IC to a high extent, indicating that IL-10 and prostaglandin (PG) partially mediate the IC-induced inhibition of IL-12 secretion.
98 9394829 However, neutralization of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha by specific antibodies also incompletely restored IL-12 secretion.
99 9394829 We found that exogenously added TNF-alpha caused a profound inhibition of monocytic IL-12 secretion in the absence of IC, again mediated via the induction of IL-10 and PG.
100 9394829 In summary, IC inhibit IL-12 secretion via TNF-alpha-induced IL-10 and PG synthesis.
101 9525307 To apply IL-12 genes in gene therapy such as a DNA vaccine, a pIL-12 vector was constructed that contained two cytomegalovirus (CMV) promoters to drive the expression of p35 and p40 subunits, respectively.
102 9525307 In addition, a pscIL-12 vector was designed with a linker to fuse p35 cDNA with p40 cDNA to produce a single-chain IL-12 protein, ensuring not only that the expression of p35 and p40 subunits was equally expressed, but also that no free p40 subunits interfered with IL-12 activity.
103 9525307 Furthermore, in vivo functional studies also demonstrated that mice co-immunized with a pS vector expressing the major envelope protein of hepatitis B virus (HBV) and IL-12 vectors encoding native IL-12 or single-chain IL-12 fusion protein elicited higher levels of IgG2a anti-HBs antibody and of Th1-related cytokine.
104 9525307 Because p35 and p40 genes can be expressed in a vector by using a single promoter, pscIL-12 should be useful in future applications for nucleic acid vaccination or for gene therapy against diseases.

113 9607848 The infection enhanced mRNA expression of interleukin (IL)-12 p40 and also of interferon (IFN)-gamma, IL-4, IL-10, and cytokine-inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in spleen.
114 9607848 Anti-IL-12 treatment significantly reduced the secretion and mRNA expression of IFN-gamma and greatly diminished the augmentation of iNOS mRNA expression.
115 9607848 In addition, recombinant IL-12 administration delayed the onset of parasitemia because of the enhanced IFN-gamma production.
116 9607848 These results suggest that blood-stage P. berghei XAT infection induces IL-12 production, which is important for the development of host resistance via IFN-gamma production.
117 9614572 We inserted the genes coding for the p35 and p40 chain of interleukin-12 (IL-12) in two independent eukaryotic expression vectors and transduced melanoma cells of 15 different primary tumor cultures with both plasmids by a ballistic gene transfer approach.
118 9614572 Secreted IL-12 demonstrated strong bioactivity by inducing interferon-gamma release from peripheral blood lymphocytes upon coculture with cell culture supernatants after IL-12 gene transfer which could at least partly be blocked by IL-12-specific antisera.
119 9614572 Biopsies taken from that patient's metastases revealed a heavy infiltration of CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocytes.
120 9622098 The plasmid expression vector that we used has several useful features including replication to high copy number as an episome and a polycistronic message enabling the production of both the p35 and p40 subunits of IL-12 without alternative splicing; up to 3 ng/mL/10(6)/48 hours of IL-12 was produced following transfection.
121 9686195 Elevated levels of IL-12 (p40 mRNA) were detected in the lymph nodes (LN) and the lungs of vaccinated mice, whilst treatment of vaccinated mice with anti-IL-12 antibodies decreased the ratio of IFN gamma:IL-4 secreted by in vitro-cultured LN cells.
122 9686195 Soluble antigens from the lung-stage of the parasite (SLAP) appeared to be efficient stimulators of IFN gamma and IL-12 secretion.
123 9686195 These antigens when used to immunise mice in conjunction with IL-12 as an adjuvant, elicited a polarised Th1 response with abundant IFN gamma secretion but no IL-4.
124 9686195 The induction of a dominant Th1 response using SLAP + IL-12 probably operates via IFN gamma production by natural killer (NK) cells stimulated by IL-12, since in vivo ablation of NK cells using anti-NK1.1 antibody reduced CD4(+)-dependent IFN gamma production from cultured LN cells by over 97%.
125 9686195 Nevertheless, in mice with a genetic disruption of the IFN gamma receptor, administration of SLAP + IL-12 induced levels of IFN gamma equal to those in wild-type mice, thus showing that in this model IL-12 can directly prime T cells independent of IFN gamma.
126 9806041 Regulation of interleukin-12 by interleukin-10, transforming growth factor-beta, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, and interferon-gamma in human monocytes infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Ra.
127 9806041 Regulation of interleukin (IL)-12 production by coexpression of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha, IL-10, and transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta in human monocytes infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Ra was analyzed.
128 9806041 Also, since IL-12 induces interferon (IFN)-gamma, the effect of IFN-gamma on IL-12 expression was examined.
129 9806041 IL-12 p70 protein paralleled IL-12 p40 protein expression.
130 9806041 TNF-alpha protein expression occurred earlier than IL-12 p40 protein but was not required for IL-12 induction.
131 9806041 Addition or neutralization of TGF-beta did not significantly alter IL-12 induction.
132 9806041 In contrast, recombinant IL-10 reduced IL-12 and neutralization of IL-10 minimally enhanced IL-12.
133 9806041 A pronounced increase in IL-12 followed IFN-gamma pretreatment, which selectively up-regulated IL-12 p35 mRNA.
134 9806041 Regulation of interleukin-12 by interleukin-10, transforming growth factor-beta, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, and interferon-gamma in human monocytes infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Ra.
135 9806041 Regulation of interleukin (IL)-12 production by coexpression of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha, IL-10, and transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta in human monocytes infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Ra was analyzed.
136 9806041 Also, since IL-12 induces interferon (IFN)-gamma, the effect of IFN-gamma on IL-12 expression was examined.
137 9806041 IL-12 p70 protein paralleled IL-12 p40 protein expression.
138 9806041 TNF-alpha protein expression occurred earlier than IL-12 p40 protein but was not required for IL-12 induction.
139 9806041 Addition or neutralization of TGF-beta did not significantly alter IL-12 induction.
140 9806041 In contrast, recombinant IL-10 reduced IL-12 and neutralization of IL-10 minimally enhanced IL-12.
141 9806041 A pronounced increase in IL-12 followed IFN-gamma pretreatment, which selectively up-regulated IL-12 p35 mRNA.
142 9927516 IL-12 p70 production by stimulated human monocytes was inhibited by CT in a dose-dependent manner.
143 9927516 CT also inhibited the production of IL-12 p70 by monocyte-derived dendritic cells, as well as the production of tumor necrosis factor alpha, but not IL-10, IL-6, or transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta1, by stimulated monocytes.
144 9927516 The effects of CT were not due to autocrine production of IL-10, TGF-beta1, or prostaglandin E2.
145 9927516 CT inhibited the production of IFN-gamma by anti-CD3-stimulated human peripheral blood mononuclear cell, due in part to suppression of IL-12 production, but also to the inhibition of expression of the beta1 and beta2 chains of the IL-12 receptor on T cells.
146 9927516 In vivo, mice given CT before systemic challenge with lipopolysaccharide had markedly reduced serum levels of IL-12 p40 and interferon gamma.
147 9988446 Mononuclear cell cytokine responses to house-dust mite were measured at 6-monthly intervals from birth to 2 years of age, using ELISA (IL-10, IL-13, IFN-gamma) and sqRT/PCR (IL-4, IL-5, IL-9, IFN-gamma) in normal infants (n = 14) with no family history or allergic symptoms, and infants with a family history and definite atopy by 2 years (n = 16).
148 10085016 Dendritic cells from mice deficient in the IL-12 p40 gene failed to produce IL-12 after a similar ex vivo pulse with chlamydial organisms, and more importantly, immunization with these dendritic cells failed to induce a Th1 cell-dominant response and did not induce strong protection against chlamydial infection.
149 10390075 Upregulation of antitumor immunity by IL-12 gene-transfected AK-5 tumor cells in vivo.
150 10390075 We have earlier demonstrated a significant role for IL-12 in the regression of a rat histiocytic tumor, AK-5.
151 10390075 Analysis of the serum samples from animals injected with the IL-12 gene-transfected AK-5 cells on different days revealed a significant increase in circulatory IL-12, interferon (IFN)-gamma, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha and antitumor antibodies, all of which contributed to the reduction in tumor mass.
152 10390075 Similarly, intraperitoneal transplantation of IL-12 gene-transfected tumor cells in syngeneic Wistar rats induced a significant increase in cellular cytotoxicity, with a concomitant reduction in circulatory IL-12 (p40) protein.
153 10390075 Administration of antibodies to IL-12 and IFN-gamma reduced the expression of the costimulatory molecules B7.1 and B7.2 and the cytolytic effectors granzyme B and Fas-L, suggesting their involvement in IFN-gamma-dependent antitumor immune response induced by IL-12.
154 10590071 In contrast, AML cells genetically modified to express IL-12 (IL12-AML) using murine stem cell virus (MSCV) p40 + p35 elicit very potent antileukemic activity.
155 10590071 In vivo depletion of IL-12, interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma), or CD8(+) T cells after injections with live IL12-AML cells abrogates completely the antileukemia immune responses.
156 10590071 Studies on the in vitro effects of IFN-gamma on AML cells demonstrate enhanced expression of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) and accessory molecules and induction of the costimulatory molecules B7.1 and B7.2, but no significant direct antiproliferative effect. (51)Cr release assays show that rejection of live IL12-AML cells supports the development of long-lasting leukemia-specific cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) activity.
157 10671197 Native Gal-lactin stimulated IL-12 p40 / p35 mRNA expression in a dose- and time-dependent manner as measured by reverse transcriptase-PCR.
158 10671197 IFN-gamma priming augmented Gal-lectin-induced IL-12 mRNA expression independent of TNF-alpha and IL-1beta, and was required for IL-12 p70 protein production from macrophages and human peripheral blood mononuclear cells.
159 10671197 Gal-lectin plus IFN-gamma stimulated IL-12 p40 and p35 gene transcription with stable mRNA transcripts and a differential requirement for protein synthesis.

161 10671197 IFN-gamma priming augmented Gal-lectin-induced IL-12 mRNA expression independent of TNF-alpha and IL-1beta, and was required for IL-12 p70 protein production from macrophages and human peripheral blood mononuclear cells.
162 10671197 Gal-lectin plus IFN-gamma stimulated IL-12 p40 and p35 gene transcription with stable mRNA transcripts and a differential requirement for protein synthesis.
163 10678966 Susceptibility of BALB/c mice to Leishmania major infection has been correlated to the preferential development of Th2 CD4 T cells through an early production of interleukin 4 (IL-4) by a restricted population of CD4 T cells which react to a single parasite antigen, LACK (stands for Leishmania homologue of receptors for activated C kinase).
164 10678966 Experimental vaccination with LACK can redirect the differentiation of CD4(+) T cells towards the Th1 pathway if LACK is coadministrated with IL-12.
165 10678966 After a single injection of LACK-expressing L. monocytogenes, IL-12/p40 transcripts showed a rapid burst, and peaks of gamma interferon (IFN-gamma)-secreting LACK-specific Th1 cells were detected around day 5 in the spleens and livers of mice of both strains.
166 10678966 Thus, our results demonstrate that, in addition of its recognized use for the induction of effector CD8 T cells, L. monocytogenes can also be used as a live recombinant vector to favor the development of potentially protective IFN-gamma-secreting Th1 CD4 T lymphocytes.
167 10772532 Since IL-12 consists of two subunit genes, p35 and p40, SHIVs with one or both of these genes were constructed.
168 10772532 The production of IL-12 by the coinfection reached 800 pg/ml, and IL-12 was detected after serial passage in cell cultures, although this amount of IL-12 heterodimer was 150-1500 times less than that of the p40 subunits.
169 10772532 Since IL-12 consists of two subunit genes, p35 and p40, SHIVs with one or both of these genes were constructed.
170 10772532 The production of IL-12 by the coinfection reached 800 pg/ml, and IL-12 was detected after serial passage in cell cultures, although this amount of IL-12 heterodimer was 150-1500 times less than that of the p40 subunits.
171 10858197 Antigen-specific production of interleukin-4 (IL-4), IL-5, IL-6, IL-9, IL-10, IL-13, and gamma interferon (IFN-gamma) was determined at each sample point, in parallel with polyclonal (phytohemagglutinin PHA-induced) cytokine responses.
172 10888112 The cDNA encoding the ovine IL-12 (OvIL-12) subunits, p40 and p35, were generated from concanavalin A (ConA)-stimulated peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC).
173 10888112 The ovine genes encoded proteins that had the highest amino acid identity to caprine p40 (99% amino acid identity) and p35 (97% amino acid identity) and also displayed a high degree of identity with human p40 (84%) and p35 (79%) homologs.

176 10918477 Ad infection (MOI 200) of BMDC induced significant increases in IL 12 p40 protein in culture supernatants (6 x that of uninfected BMDC and similar to that observed with addition of LPS and CD40 crosslinking antibody).
177 10918477 Consistent with DC activation, FACs analysis showed BMDC infected with Ad vectors up-regulated the surface expression of B7-2, ICAM-1 and MHC II.
178 10918477 Additional experiments evaluated the role of virus attachment, internalization and gene expression using IL-12 p40 production as a marker of DC activation.
179 10918477 Neither heat-inactivated Ad nor peptides containing the RGD sequence (the primary component of Ad penton base which interacts with cell surface integrins) induced significant amounts of IL12 p40.
180 10918477 In contrast, psoralen/UV-inactivated Ad showed similar levels of IL12 p40 production compared with intact Ad.

196 10959079 Interferon-gamma and interleukin-12 pathway defects and human disease.
197 10959079 Over the past five years, mutations in the interferon-gamma (IFNgamma) receptor, IL-12 receptor beta1 (IL-12Rbeta1), and IL-12 p40 genes have been recognized.
198 10959079 We describe the genotype-phenotype correlations in IFNgamma receptor, IL-12Rbeta1, and IL-12 p40 deficiency, and discuss how study of these diseases has enhanced knowledge of human host defense against mycobacteria and other intracellular pathogens.

200 10959079 Over the past five years, mutations in the interferon-gamma (IFNgamma) receptor, IL-12 receptor beta1 (IL-12Rbeta1), and IL-12 p40 genes have been recognized.
201 10959079 We describe the genotype-phenotype correlations in IFNgamma receptor, IL-12Rbeta1, and IL-12 p40 deficiency, and discuss how study of these diseases has enhanced knowledge of human host defense against mycobacteria and other intracellular pathogens.
202 11118387 T helper type 1 (Th1) lymphocytes secrete secrete interleukin (IL)-2, interferon-gamma, and lymphotoxin-alpha and stimulate type 1 immunity, which is characterized by intense phagocytic activity.
203 11118387 Conversely, Th2 cells secrete IL-4, IL-5, IL-9, IL-10, and IL-13 and stimulate type 2 immunity, which is characterized by high antibody titers.
204 11145714 Mutations in the common gamma-chain (gamma(c)) of cytokine receptors, including those for IL-2, IL-4, IL-7, IL-9, and IL-15, are responsible for an X-linked form of the disease, while mutations of several other genes, including Janus-associated kinase-3, may cause autosomal recessive forms of SCID.
205 11145714 We report here that a homozygous 6-bp deletion in the gene encoding CD45 (PTPRC, gene map locus 1q31-32), which results in a loss of glutamic acid 339 and tyrosine 340 in the first fibronectin type III module of the extracellular domain of CD45, is associated with failure of surface expression of CD45 and SCID.
206 11427281 Protective immunity against Leishmania major requires parasite-specific CD4+T helper cells, the development of which is promoted by interleukin 12 (IL-12).
207 11427281 In this study we investigated the use of IL-12 DNA to enhance the protective immunity induced by prophylactic vaccination with the L. major Parasite Surface Antigen 2 (PSA-2) DNA.
208 11427281 A plasmid was constructed in which the two murine IL-12 subunits p35 and p40 were secreted as a biologically active single chain cytokine.
209 11438430 In this study, we tested whether the co-administration of IL-12 expression plasmid which compose p35 and p40 subunits and soluble leishmanial antigen (SLA) will skew the susceptible BALB/c mice to Th1 response and protect from leishmaniasis.
210 11438430 In contrast, the administration of empty plasmid plus SLA or IL-12 plasmid alone failed to protect the disease and shape the Th1 response.
211 11500412 Within 6 h both 1-day- and 1-week-old mice expressed interleukin-12 p40 mRNA following either B. abortus or B. abortus-OVA administration.
212 11500412 The absence of the early IFN-gamma response in 1-day-old mice may explain their inability to generate a Th1 memory response.
213 11691812 Flow cytometric analysis indicated enhanced expression of MHC class I and II molecules as well as CD80, CD86, CD40, and CD54, and reverse transcription-PCR analysis revealed increased levels of interleukin 12 p40 mRNA.
214 11711604 Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor expressed by recombinant respiratory syncytial virus attenuates viral replication and increases the level of pulmonary antigen-presenting cells.
215 11711604 To investigate methods to augment the immune response, recombinant RSV (rRSV) was constructed that expresses murine granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (mGM-CSF) from a transcription cassette inserted into the G-F intergenic region.
216 11711604 Mice infected with rRSV/mGM-CSF had elevated levels of pulmonary mRNA for gamma interferon (IFN-gamma) and interleukin 12 (IL-12) p40 compared to animals infected by wild-type rRSV.
217 11711604 The accumulation of total pulmonary mononuclear cells and total CD4(+) T lymphocytes was accelerated in animals infected with rRSV/mGM-CSF compared to that in animals infected with the control virus, and the level of IFN-gamma-positive or IL-4-positive pulmonary CD4(+) cells was elevated approximately twofold.
218 11747597 To enhance the in vivo delivery of the IL-12 gene, we expressed the murine single-chain IL-12 protein from a nonviral vector to which the two IL-12 subunits (p35 and p40) were linked by a 14- to 18-amino-acid linker.
219 11906776 Insertion of interleukin-2 (IL-2) and interleukin-12 (IL-12) genes into vaccinia virus results in effective anti-tumor responses without toxicity.
220 11906776 Recent reports have documented an increased therapeutic effectiveness of poxvirus-based vaccines when additional treatment with cytokines, such as interleukin-2 (IL-2) or interleukin-12 (IL-12) were used, but the combination of these cytokines as adjuvants for a rVV encoding TAA have not been previously reported.
221 11906776 The combination of IL-2 and IL-12 at single regimen systemic doses was toxic and sometimes fatal, manifesting largely as segmental epithelial apoptosis of the large bowel.
222 11906776 To explore the local delivery of both cytokines to the site of vaccination, the genes encoding IL-2 and IL-12 were inserted into vaccinia virus along with a model tumor antigen gene.
223 11906776 This construct contained five heterologous genes: LacZ (the model antigen), gpt (reporter gene), IL-2, and the two IL-12 subunit genes (p35 and p40).
224 11923845 Interleukin-12 (IL-12), consisting of p40 and p35 subunits, produces both p70 heterodimer and free p40. p70 is essential for the induction of T-helper 1 (Th1) and cytotoxic T-cell (CTL) immunity, whereas p40 inhibits p70-mediated function.
225 11923845 Co-immunization of N220 mutant mIL-12 gene with hepatitis C virus (HCV) E2 DNA significantly enhanced long-term E2-specific CD8+ T-cell response and protection against tumor challenge compared with that of wild type.
226 11923845 Our results indicate that the ratio of p70 to p40 is important for generating sustained long-term cell-mediated immunity.

229 11923845 Our results indicate that the ratio of p70 to p40 is important for generating sustained long-term cell-mediated immunity.
230 11943327 We first tried the purification of heterodimer IL-12 from a mixture of p40 homodimer, p40 monomer, and p40-p35 heterodimer with a p35 subunit tagged with a histidine hexamar at its C-terminal (p35His).
231 12117936 Oral immunization of mice with a Salmonella vaccine expressing colonization factor antigen I (CFA/I) from enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli results in the rapid onset of interleukin-4 (IL-4) and IL-5 production, which explains the observed elevations in mucosal immunoglobulin A (IgA) and serum IgG1 antibodies.
232 12117936 Upon measurement of proinflammatory cytokines, minimal to no tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha), IL-1alpha, IL-1beta, or IL-6 was produced by Salmonella-CFA/I-infected RAW 264.7 or peritoneal macrophages, but production was greatly induced in Salmonella vector-infected macrophages.
233 12117936 Only minute levels of IL-12 p70 were induced by Salmonella vector-infected macrophages, and none was induced by Salmonella-CFA/I-infected macrophages.
234 12117936 The absence of IL-12 was not due to overt increases in production of either IL-12 p40 or IL-10.
235 12540573 Vaccine-induced reduction of Helicobacter pylori colonization in mice is interleukin-12 dependent but gamma interferon and inducible nitric oxide synthase independent.
236 12540573 Elevated levels of mRNA for interleukin-12p40 (IL-12p40), gamma interferon (IFN-gamma), tumor necrosis factor alpha, and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) were associated with protection in immunized-challenged (I/C) mice, but Th2 cytokine (IL-4, IL-5, IL-10, and IL-13) and chemokine (KC, MIP-2, and MCP-1) expression was not associated with protection.
237 12540573 Despite the association of IFN-gamma and iNOS message with protection, I/C mice genetically lacking either of these products were able to reduce the bacterial load as well as the wild-type I/C controls.
238 12540573 We conclude that neither IFN-gamma nor iNOS is essential for vaccine-induced protection from H. pylori infection.
239 12540573 The p40 subunit of IL-12, which is a component of both IL-12 and IL-23, is necessary for protection in immunized mice.
240 12744881 The interleukin 4 (IL-4), interferon gamma (IFNgamma) and IL-12 (p40 subunit) cytokine mRNA expression profiles in PBMC as well as lymphocyte proliferative response and the IgG2/IgG1 ratios specific for LACK suggest that in vaccinated animals there is triggering of cellular immune responses.
241 12941146 The role of antigen-presenting cells and interleukin-12 in the priming of antigen-specific CD4+ T cells by immune stimulating complexes.
242 12941146 Using DC and T cells from interleukin (IL)-12 p40-/- mice, we also identified a crucial role for IL-12 in the priming of optimal CD4+ T cell responses by OVA ISCOMs.
243 12947000 Recently various genetic defects in immunity mediated by interferon gamma (IFN-gamma) have been described, including mutations in the IFN-gamma receptor 1 (IFN-gammaR1) and receptor 2 (IFN-gammaR2), signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 (STAT 1), and interleukin 12 receptor beta 1 (IL-12Rbeta1), and IL-12 p40 genes.
244 12947000 Screening for neutralizing anti-IFN-gamma autoantibodies should supplement testing for IFN-gamma and IL-12 pathway defects in patients with recurrent infections with intracellular pathogens, especially with nontuberculous mycobacteria.
245 14685154 However, in EBV-positive Hodgkin's disease (HD) the efficacy of adoptively transferred EBV-specific CTL may be limited by tumor-derived immunosuppressive factors, such as T-cell growth factor (TGF) beta, interleukin (IL)13 and the chemokine TARC.
246 14685154 EBV-specific CTL transduced with a retrovirus vector expressing the p40 and p35 subunits of IL12 as a single molecule (Flexi-IL12), produced IL12 following antigenic stimulation.
247 14685154 This resulted in an elevated production of Th1 cytokines, including interferon gamma and tumor necrosis factor alpha, and a reduction in the Th2 cytokines IL4 and IL5.
248 14685154 Flexi-IL12-transduced CTL resisted the antiproliferative and anticytotoxic effects of exogenous TGFbeta, likely by antagonizing the TGFbeta-induced downregulation of the Th1 transcriptional factor T-bet.
249 14741165 The addition of interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) augmented IL-12 production.
250 14741165 RT-PCR showed that SAKRA induced not only expression of IL-12 p40 mRNA, but expression of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) mRNA at least 6 h after stimulation, suggesting that SAKRA activates the bactericidal activity of macrophages.
251 15549728 IL-12 and IL-23, which share the IL-12 p40 subunit, have been ascribed central roles in many autoimmune disorders.
252 15549728 Immunization of mice with mouse IL-12 coupled to OVA or Pan DR epitope (PADRE) peptide induced Ab directed against the IL-12 p40 subunit, which prevented IFN-gamma production in response to IL-12 administration in vivo.
253 15549728 Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis, an IL-23-dependent disease model, induced in SJL mice with a proteolipid protein (PLP) peptide was almost undetectable after alphaIL-12 vaccination.
254 15549728 IL-12 and IL-23, which share the IL-12 p40 subunit, have been ascribed central roles in many autoimmune disorders.
255 15549728 Immunization of mice with mouse IL-12 coupled to OVA or Pan DR epitope (PADRE) peptide induced Ab directed against the IL-12 p40 subunit, which prevented IFN-gamma production in response to IL-12 administration in vivo.
256 15549728 Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis, an IL-23-dependent disease model, induced in SJL mice with a proteolipid protein (PLP) peptide was almost undetectable after alphaIL-12 vaccination.
257 15731058 Despite the high levels of interleukin-10 (IL-10) and the barely detectable levels of IL-12 induced by B. pertussis, the bacterium induced maturation of MDDC and T helper 1 (Th1) polarized effector cells.
258 15731058 Gene expression analysis of the IL-12 cytokine family clearly demonstrated that B. pertussis induced high levels of the p40 and p19 subunits of IL-23 yet failed to induce the expression of the p35 subunit of IL-12.
259 15784575 It was found that gamma interferon (IFN-gamma) and IL-12 were strictly required for protection, since mice deficient in IFN-gamma, IL-12 p35, or IL-12 p40 all succumbed to LVS doses that were sublethal for wild-type mice.
260 15784575 Furthermore, exogenous IL-12 treatment 24 h before intranasal infection with a lethal dose of LVS (10,000 CFU) significantly decreased bacterial loads in the lungs, livers, and spleens of wild-type BALB/c and C57BL/6 mice and allowed the animals to survive infection; such protection was not observed in IFN-gamma-deficient mice.
261 15784575 The resistance induced by IL-12 to LVS infection was still observed in NK cell-deficient beige mice but not in CD8-/- mice.
262 15784575 These results demonstrate that exogenous IL-12 delivered intranasally can prevent respiratory tularemia through a mechanism that is at least partially dependent upon the expression of IFN-gamma and CD8 T cells.
263 16103178 The majority of adenovirus serotypes utilize the coxsackievirus-adenovirus receptor (CAR) for virus-host cell attachment, but subgroup B and subgroup D (adenovirus type 37 [Ad37]) viruses recognize CD46.
264 16103178 CD46 is a ubiquitously expressed receptor that serves as a cofactor for the inactivation of the complement components C3b and C4b, and it also serves as a receptor for diverse microbial pathogens.
265 16103178 A reported consequence of CD46 engagement is a reduced capability of human immune cells to express interleukin-12 (IL-12), a cytokine involved in both the innate and adaptive immune responses.
266 16103178 Subgroup B (Ad16 and -35) and Ad37, but not Ad2 or -5, significantly reduced IL-12 production by human peripheral blood mononuclear cells stimulated with gamma interferon (IFN-gamma) and lipopolysaccharide.
267 16103178 IL-12 mRNA (p35 and p40 subunits) levels as well as other cytokine mRNA levels (IL-1alpha and -beta, IL-1Ra, and IL-6) were decreased upon interaction with CD46-utilizing Ads.
268 16103178 Analysis of transcription factor activity required for cytokine expression indicated that CD46-utilizing Ads preferentially inhibited IFN-gamma-induced C/EBPbeta protein expression, consequently reducing its ability to form DNA complexes.
269 16103178 Interference with IFN-gamma signaling events by CD46-utilizing Ads, but not CAR-utilizing Ads, reveals a potentially critical difference in the host immune response against distinct Ad vectors, a situation that has implications for gene delivery and vaccine development.
270 16216394 DNA vaccine using hemagglutinating virus of Japan-liposome encapsulating combination encoding mycobacterial heat shock protein 65 and interleukin-12 confers protection against Mycobacterium tuberculosis by T cell activation.
271 16216394 We investigated the immunogenicity and protective efficacy of DNA vaccine combinations expressing mycobacterial heat shock protein 65 (Hsp65) and interleukin-12 (IL-12) using gene gun bombardment and the hemagglutinating virus of Japan (HVJ)-liposome method.
272 16216394 A mouse IL-12 expression vector (mIL-12 DNA) encoding single-chain IL-12 proteins comprised of p40 and p35 subunits were constructed.
273 16216394 In a mouse model, a single gene gun vaccination with the combination of Hsp65 DNA and mIL-12 DNA provided a remarkably high degree of protection against challenge with virulent Mycobacterium tuberculosis; bacterial numbers were 100-fold lower in the lungs compared to BCG-vaccinated mice.
274 16216394 To explore the clinical use of the DNA vaccines, we evaluated HVJ-liposome encapsulated Hsp65 DNA and mIL-12DNA (Hsp65 + mIL-12/HVJ).
275 16216394 Hsp65 + mIL-12/HVJ induced CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocyte activity against Hsp65 antigen.
276 16216394 Most importantly, Hsp65+mIL-12/HVJ vaccination resulted in a greater degree of protection than that evoked by BCG.
277 16216394 This protective efficacy was associated with the emergence of IFN-gamma-secreting T cells and activation of proliferative T cells and cytokines (IFN-gamma and IL-2) production upon stimulation with Hsp65 and antigens from M. tuberculosis.
278 16216394 These results suggest that Hsp65 + IL-12/HVJ could be a promising candidate for a new tuberculosis DNA vaccine, which is superior to BCG vaccine.
279 16239566 Interleukin-4 (IL-4) and IL-10 collude in vaccine failure for novel exacerbatory antigens in murine Leishmania major infection.
280 16239566 This ability to exacerbate disease was lost when susceptible BALB/c mice were rendered resistant by disruption of the genes encoding interleukin-4 (IL-4) alone, IL-4/IL-13, or IL-4, IL-5, IL-9, and IL-13.
281 16239566 Failure to exacerbate disease was associated with reduced IL-5 and IL-10 production in IL-4 knockout mice.
282 16369012 Plasmid interleukin-23 (IL-23), but not plasmid IL-27, enhances the protective efficacy of a DNA vaccine against Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection.
283 16369012 Three heterodimeric cytokines, interleukin-12 (IL-12), IL-23, and IL-27, as well as IL-18, contribute to the differentiation and expansion of naive CD4(+) T cells.
284 16369012 In this study we compared the effects of plasmids expressing both chains of IL-12, IL-23, or IL-27 as adjuvants for DNA immunization against M. tuberculosis infection.
285 16369012 The genes encoding p19 and p40 chains of IL-23 or EBI3 and p28 chains of IL-27 were cloned on either side of a self-cleaving peptide from the FMDV2A protein.
286 16369012 Supernatant from p2AIL-23-transfected cells induced the release of IL-17 from activated lymphocytes, confirming the presence of bioactive IL-23.
287 16369012 In initial experiments, M. tuberculosis infection of DCs was more potent at inducing IL-12 and IL-23 secretion than infection with the vaccine strain Mycobacterium bovis bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG), and no significant upregulation of IL-27 was observed.
288 16369012 Coimmunization of C57BL/6 mice with DNA expressing M. tuberculosis antigen 85B (Ag85B; DNA85B) and plasmids expressing IL-23 or IL-12 stimulated stronger Ag85B-specific T-cell proliferative and IFN-gamma responses than DNA85B alone, whereas the addition of p2AIL-27 had no effect.
289 16376465 We constructed a glycolipid-anchored hIL-12 (GPI-hIL-12) by fusing the coding region of p35 and p40 subunits of hIL-12 with the GPI-signal sequence of CD59 at the C-terminal ends.
290 16386313 We show here that a canine IL-12 DNA, constructed by fusing the p35 and p40 subunit cDNAs with an interspacing linker, generated stable IL-12 transcripts when placed under control of a strong constitutive promoter.
291 16386313 The protein expressed from this fused cDNA was fully functional in promoting a type 1 (IFN-gamma) and suppressing a type 2 (IL-4) cytokine response following both in vitro transfection of a canine cell line and in vivo delivery to dogs.
292 16413950 Anti-leishmanial immune defences are primarily dependent on the ability of the host to mount an interleukin-12 (IL-12) driven Th1 type of responses.
293 16413950 We demonstrate that an expression plasmid encoding both p35 and p40 subunits of IL-12 when co-administered with rORFF induces a significant protection with around 82% protection in both liver and spleen.
294 16413950 The protection correlated with increased proliferative response of splenocytes and subsequent release of Th1 cytokine IFN-gamma.
295 16620826 While susceptibility to chronic infection is propagated by T helper cell type 1 cytokine responses (characterised by production of IL-12, IL-18 and interferon-gamma), immunity to intestinal-dwelling adult nematode worms is critically dependent on a type 2 cytokine response (controlled by CD4+T helper type 2 cells that secrete the cytokines IL-4, IL-5, IL-9 and IL-13).
296 17079254 Ag85A, Ag85B, culture filtrate protein (CFP)-31, CFP-22.5, CFP-21, M. tuberculosis protein-64 and an as yet uncharacterised 19 kDa protein were found to be predominantly recognised by BAL cells of TB patients on the basis of lymphocyte proliferation and significant interferon-gamma release.
297 17079254 Among polypeptides predominantly recognised by BAL lymphocytes, only Ag85A and Ag85B were found to induce both NO and interleukin-12 (p40) by alveolar macrophages.
298 17142769 Interleukin-23 restores immunity to Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection in IL-12p40-deficient mice and is not required for the development of IL-17-secreting T cell responses.
299 17142769 Host control of Mycobacterium tuberculosis is dependent on the activation of CD4+ T cells secreting IFN-gamma and their recruitment to the site of infection.
300 17142769 Cytokines important for the development of cell-mediated immunity include IL-12 and IL-23, which share the p40 subunit and the IL-12Rbeta1 signaling chain.
301 17142769 To explore the differential effect of IL-12 and IL-23 during M. tuberculosis infection, we used plasmids expressing IL-23 (p2AIL-23) or IL-12 (p2AIL-12) alone in dendritic cells or macrophages from IL-12p40(-/-) mice.
302 17142769 In the absence of the IL-12/IL-23 axis, immunization with a DNA vaccine expressing the M. tuberculosis Ag85B induced a limited Ag-specific T cell response and no control of M. tuberculosis infection.
303 17142769 This response resulted in partial protection against aerosol M. tuberculosis; however, the protective effect was less than in wild-type mice owing to the requirement for IL-12 or IL-23 for the optimal expansion of IFN-gamma-secreting T cells.
304 17142769 Interestingly, bacillus Calmette-Guérin immune T cells generated in the absence of IL-12 or IL-23 were deficient in IFN-gamma production, but exhibited a robust IL-17 secretion associated with a degree of protection against pulmonary infection.
305 17142769 Therefore, exogenous IL-23 can complement IL-12 deficiency for the initial expansion of Ag-specific T cells and is not essential for the development of potentially protective IL-17-secreting T cells.
306 17223981 In order to study further the capacity of VSSP to elicit innate immune responses, human peripheral blood mononuclear cells and monocytes derived thereof were assessed for in vitro secretion of interleukin (IL)-10, IL-6, IL-12 and interferon (IFN)-gamma.
307 17223981 IL-12 p40 (but no p70) was also detected.
308 17223981 VSSP also induced DC maturation and a cytokine secretion pattern (high IL-6/low IL-10) which differs from that induced by LPS.
309 17240920 We have developed two novel tuberculosis (TB) vaccines; a DNA vaccine combination expressing mycobacterial heat shock protein 65 (HSP 65) and interleukin-12 (IL-12) by using the hemagglutinating virus of Japan (HVJ)-liposome (HSP 65 + IL-12/HVJ).
310 17240920 A mouse IL-12 expression vector (mIL-12 DNA) encoding single-chain IL-12 proteins comorised of p40 and p35 subunits were constructed.
311 17240920 In a mouse model, a single gene gun vaccination with the combination of HSP 65 DNA and mIL-12 DNA provided a remarkably high degree of protection against challenge with virulent Mycobacterium tuberculosis; bacterial numbers were 100 fold lower in the lungs compared to BCG-vaccinated mice.
312 17240920 To explore the clinical use of the DNA vaccines, we evaluated HVJ-liposome encapsulated HAP 65 DNA and mIL-12 DNA (HSP 65 + mIL-12/ HVJ).
313 17240920 HSP 65 + IL-12/HVJ vaccine induced CD8+cytoxic T lymphocyte activity against HSP 65 antigen.
314 17240920 Protective efficacy of this vaccine was associated with the emergence of IFN-gamma-secreting T cells and activation of proliferative T cells as well as CTL induction upon stimulation with the HSP 65 and antigens from M. tuberculosis.
315 17240920 Furthermore, we extended our studies to a cynomolgus monkey model, which is currently the best animal model of human tuberculosis, to evaluate the HSP 65 + IL-12/HVJ vaccine.
316 17240920 Vaccination with HSP 65 + IL-12/HVJ provided better protective efficacy as assessed by the Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate, chest X-ray findings, and immune responses than BCG.
317 17240920 Most importantly, HSP 65 + IL-12/HVJ resulted in an increased survival for over a year.
318 17240920 Genes (HSP 65 gene, IL-12 gene as well as Ag 85A-, 85B-, MPB51-gene) and IL-6 related genes (IL-6 gene + IL-6R gene +gp130 gene) were administered into the Balb/c mice infected (i.v. or intra-tracheal injection) with Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis).
319 17240920 HSP 65 gene + IL-12 gene vaccination, or recombinant BCG (BA51 : Antigen 85B(-) + Antigen 85A(-) + MPB51-gene recombinant BCG) were more prophylactically efficient than parental BCG Tokyo vaccination.
320 17240920 In conclusion, we demonstrate the development of a novel HVJ-liposome DNA vaccine encapsulating HSP 65 DNA plus IL-12 DNA.
321 17240920 These results suggest that HSP 65 + IL-12/HVJ could be a promising candidate for a new tuberculosis DNA vaccine, which is superior to the currently available BCG vaccine.
322 17240920 More recently, we evaluated the HSP 65 + hIL-12/HVJ vaccine in the cynomolgus monkey model, which is currently the best non-human primate animal model of human tuberculosis.
323 17240920 In this particular experiment, monkeys vaccinated with HSP 65 + hIL-12/HVJ induced HSP 65-specific T-cell proliferation and improvement of chest X-P findings, resulting in an increased survival for over a year, superior to BCG group.
324 17369012 Human monocyte-derived macrophages produced more tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha), interleukin (IL)-1beta, IL-6, and IL-12 p40 following exposure to the variant, designated the activating variant (ACV).
325 17485111 In addition, we observed a concomitant down-regulation of p22(phox) and p40(phox), two components of the NADPH oxidase, in the leukocytes from infected fish.
326 17485111 To investigate whether these differences may be the result of a dysregulation of cytokines expression in infected fish, we cloned several sea bass cytokines, including interleukin-6 (IL-6), IL-8 and three CC chemokines, and performed a detailed expression study with these and other cytokines.
327 18353922 We report that hantavirus-infected female patients show significantly higher plasma levels of interleukin-9 (IL-9), fibroblast growth factor 2, and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor and lower levels of IL-8 and gamma interferon-induced protein 10 than male patients.
328 19543225 In this Review, we focus on our current understanding of the distinct and overlapping effects of interleukin-2 (IL-2), IL-7, IL-9, IL-15 and IL-21, as well as the IL-7-related cytokine thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP), on the survival and proliferation of conventional alphabeta T cells, gammadelta T cells and regulatory T cells.
329 20038202 To ensure the stoichiometric expression and assembly of p35 and p40, we expressed a single-chain version of chicken IL-12 (ChIL-12).
330 20445754 This agreed well with higher expression level of IFN-gamma and perforin in CD8+ T cells, but not with IL-17 in these T cells.
331 20445754 The results indicate that IL-9 induces the development of IFN-gamma-producing CD8+ T cells (Tc1), but not the IL-17-producing CD8+ T cells (Tc17).
332 20445754 Up-regulated expressions of BCL-2 and BCL-XL were exhibited in these Tc1 cells, suggesting that IL-9 may trigger antiapoptosis mechanism in these cells.
333 20445754 This agreed well with higher expression level of IFN-gamma and perforin in CD8+ T cells, but not with IL-17 in these T cells.
334 20445754 The results indicate that IL-9 induces the development of IFN-gamma-producing CD8+ T cells (Tc1), but not the IL-17-producing CD8+ T cells (Tc17).

336 20483237 In fish, prior to pufferfish (Fugu rubripes and Tetraodon nigroviridis) and zebrafish (Danio rerio) genome sequencing, only a handful of cytokines like IL-1beta, TNF-alpha, TGFbeta, some CXC (including IL-8) and CC chemokine genes were identified.
337 20483237 Pro-inflammatory cytokines like TNF's, IL-6 and IL-17 family have been cloned.
338 20483237 Among the T(H)1 type interleukins, IL-2, IL-15, IL-12alpha, IL-12beta, IL-18 have been cloned.
339 20483237 Among IL-10 and its family members, IL-10, IL-19/20, IL-22 and IL-26 have been discovered.
340 20483237 However, T(H)2 cytokines (IL-4, IL-5 and IL-13), IL-3, IL-7 and IL-9 are yet to be discovered from fish.
341 20855390 Patients with interleukin 12 (IL-12)p40 or IL-12 receptor β1 (IL12Rβ1) deficiencies are prone to develop infections caused by mycobacteria and salmonella; other infections have only been rarely observed.
342 21209158 We describe the development and validation of a microsphere-based assay for three commonly analyzed domestic cat cytokines (gamma interferon, interleukin-10, and interleukin-12/interleukin-23 p40) using reagents from commercially available ELISAs.
343 21209158 The validated lower and upper quantitation limits were 31 and 1,000 pg/ml for gamma interferon, 63 and 2,000 pg/ml for interleukin-10, and 39 and 625 pg/ml for interleukin-12/interleukin-23 p40.

346 21334341 P1.HTR, an immunogenic variant of the P815 mastocytoma cell line, was used to generate stably transfected cell clones with expression vectors encoding the human CD134L transmembrane protein fused with either mouse IL-22BP or IL-9.
347 21334341 Following repeated injections of living tumor cells expressing the mIL-22BP construct, mice developed autoantibodies that bind to mIL-22BP and inhibit its interaction with IL-22 in vitro.

395 23527138 HLA-A*0201 (A2)-restricted epitopic determinants were identified with N-specific CD8(+) T cells from eight healthy donors that were primed with dendritic cells transduced to express N, and subsequently expanded in vitro by weekly re-stimulations with monocytes pulsed with 59 15mer overlapping peptides (OLPs) across N.
396 23527138 VT9- and IL9-specific CD8(+) T cells identified by tetramer staining were cytotoxic and polyfunctional, characteristics deemed important for viral control in vivo.
397 23753624 The p35 molecule is unique to interleukin-12 (IL-12), while p40 is shared by both IL-12 and IL-23.
398 23753624 IL-12 promotes Th1 T cell responses, while IL-23 promotes Th17 T cell responses.
399 23753624 Mice deficient in either IL-12p35 or p40 both developed similar but prolonged infection time courses, confirming the roles of IL-12-mediated immune responses in clearing primary infection.
400 23753624 However, all mice, regardless of genotype, cleared reinfection within 2 weeks, suggesting that an IL-12- or IL-23-independent adaptive immunity is protective against chlamydial infection.
401 23753624 Compared to IL-12p35 knockout mice, the IL-12p40-deficient mice exhibited more extensive spreading of chlamydial organisms into kidney tissues, leading to significantly increased incidence of pyelonephritis, which both confirms the role of IL-12 or IL-23-independent host responses in Chlamydia-induced pathologies and suggests that in the absence of IL-12/IFN-γ-mediated Th1 immunity, an IL-23-mediated response may play an important role in restricting chlamydial organisms from spreading into distal organs.

407 24242760 Interleukin (IL)-21 is a member of the γ chain-receptor cytokine family along with IL-2, IL-4, IL-7, IL-9, and IL-15.
408 24242760 The effects of IL-21 are pleiotropic, owing to the broad cellular distribution of the IL-21 receptor.
409 24242760 IL-21 is secreted by activated CD4 T cells and natural killer T cells.
410 24242760 Our research focus has been on the role of IL-21 and more recently of Tfh in immunopathogenesis of HIV infection.
411 24242760 This review focuses on first the influence of IL-21 in regulation of T cell, B cell, and NK cell responses and its immunotherapeutic potential in viral infections and as a vaccine adjuvant.
412 24252697 In vitro, PS-F2 stimulated dendritic cells (DCs) to produce proinflammatory cytokines, including TNF-α, interleukin (IL)-6, and IL-12/IL-23 p40.
413 24252697 PS-F2 also stimulated DCs to express the maturation markers CD40, CD80, CD86, and MHC class II.
414 24252697 In a murine splenocyte culture, PS-F2 treatment resulted in elevated expression of T-bet and interferon (IFN)-γ in T lymphocytes.
415 24285818 In response to M. tuberculosis ESAT-6/CFP-10, interleukin 5 (IL-5), IL-9, IL-13, and IL-17 differentiated the stronger IFN-γ responders to M. tuberculosis ESAT-6 from those who preferentially responded to M. kansasii and M. avium ESAT-6.
416 24285818 A cytokine/chemokine signature of IL-5, IL-9, IL-13, and IL-17 was identified as a putative immunological biosignature to differentiate latent TB infection from exposure to M. avium and M. kansasii in Malawian children, indicating that this signature might be particularly informative in areas where both TB and exposure to environmental nontuberculous mycobacteria are endemic.
417 24285818 In response to M. tuberculosis ESAT-6/CFP-10, interleukin 5 (IL-5), IL-9, IL-13, and IL-17 differentiated the stronger IFN-γ responders to M. tuberculosis ESAT-6 from those who preferentially responded to M. kansasii and M. avium ESAT-6.
418 24285818 A cytokine/chemokine signature of IL-5, IL-9, IL-13, and IL-17 was identified as a putative immunological biosignature to differentiate latent TB infection from exposure to M. avium and M. kansasii in Malawian children, indicating that this signature might be particularly informative in areas where both TB and exposure to environmental nontuberculous mycobacteria are endemic.
419 24391825 IL-10, IL-9 and IL-15-mediated JAK/STAT signalling was shown to be involved in the pathological amplification of IFN responses observed in SLE.
420 24615129 We observed a significant increase in interleukin-17 (IL-17) positive CD4 + T cells at convalescent versus acute stage of infection using an intracellular cytokine staining assay.
421 24615129 We also found that stimulated peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) produced significantly increased levels of a number of cytokines at the convalescent versus acute phase of infection, including IFN-γ, MIP-1β, sCD40L, TNF-β, IL-13, and IL-9.
422 24777970 Vaccination of patients with ovarian cancer with overlapping long peptides (OLP) from cancer-testis antigen NY-ESO-1 and poly-ICLC in Montanide-ISA-51 (Montanide) was found to consistently induce integrated immune responses (antibody, CD4(+), and CD8(+) T cells).
423 24777970 Using detailed methods, we investigated the respective effects of poly-ICLC and Montanide adjuvant on pre- and postvaccine NY-ESO-1-specific CD4(+) T cells, because of their central function for induction and maintenance of both antibody and CD8(+) T cells.
424 24777970 Polyclonal NY-ESO-1-specific CD4(+) T-cell lines were generated from 12 patients using CD154-based selection of precursors before and after vaccination with (i) OLP alone, (ii) OLP in Montanide, or (iii) OLP and poly-ICLC in Montanide.
425 24777970 Vaccination with OLP alone did not elicit CD4(+) T-cell responses; it suppressed high-avidity CD4(+) T-cell precursors that recognized naturally processed NY-ESO-1 protein before vaccination.
426 24777970 Emulsification of OLP in Montanide was required for the expansion of high-avidity NY-ESO-1-specific CD4(+) T-cell precursors.
427 24777970 Poly-ICLC significantly enhanced CD4(+) Th1 responses while suppressing the induction of interleukin (IL)-4-producing Th2 and IL-9-producing Th9 cells.
428 24838148 Consistent with the data from RSV-infected infants, CD4 T cell production of Interleukin (IL)-9, IL-13, and IL-17 has all been shown to contribute to RSV-induced disease in a murine model of RSV infection.
429 24838148 Conversely, murine studies indicate that the combined actions of regulatory factors such as CD4 regulatory T cells and IL-10 inhibit the inflammatory cytokine response and limit RSV-induced disease.
430 24841535 Mechanistic studies revealed that IL-3 but not IL-9 secreted by Th9 cells was responsible for the prolonged survival of DCs.
431 24841535 IL-3 upregulated the expression of anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-xL and activated p38, ERK and STAT5 signaling pathways in DCs.
432 24950351 Proinflammatory cytokines IFN-γ, IL-2, and IL-9 were significantly induced in mice boosted with SopB5-GVNPs, consistent with a robust Th1 response.
433 25075718 AJS75 induced or up-regulated the protein expression of 12 cytokines (IL-12p40, IL-12p40/p70, IFN-γ, IL-13, IL-1β, IL-6, IL-10, TNF-α, sTNFR I, sTNFR III, IL-3 and IL-9) and 10 chemokines (Eotaxin, I-TAC, MIG, MIP-1α, RANTES, TECK, Fracatlkine, FasL, M-CSF and GM-CSF) in the injected muscles.
434 25253667 Interleukin-10- and transforming growth factor β-independent regulation of CD8⁺ T cells expressing type 1 and type 2 cytokines in human lymphatic filariasis.
435 25253667 INF individuals exhibited significant decreases in the frequencies of CD8⁺ T cells expressing tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), gamma interferon (IFN-γ), and interleukin-22 (IL-22) at baseline and/or in response to filarial antigens, compared with CP and EN individuals.
436 25253667 In contrast, the same individuals exhibited significant increases in the frequencies of CD8⁺ T cells expressing IL-4, IL-5, IL-9, IL-13, and IL-21, compared with CP and/or EN individuals.
437 25253667 Finally, the regulation of these responses appears to be independent of IL-10 and transforming growth factor β (TGF-β), since blockade of IL-10 or TGF-β signaling did not significantly alter the frequencies of type 1 or type 2 cytokine-expressing CD8⁺ T cells.
438 25297635 Depletion of either CD8(+) or CD4(+) T cells abolished the benefits of IL9 loss to tumor control.
439 25424939 DC-dependent T helper polarization was altered, leading to a decreased production of IFN-γ IP10 and GM-CSF and increased levels of IL-8, IL-9, and MIP-1α.
440 25576595 The inducible costimulator (ICOS) plays a key role in the development of Th17 cells, but its role in the development and antitumor activity of IL-17-producing CD8(+) T cells (Tc17) remains unknown.
441 25576595 However, ICOS stimulation did not augment the antitumor activity of IL-2 expanded T cells.
442 25576595 Additional investigation revealed that ICOS stimulation not only increased IL-2Rα, CXCR3, and IL-23R expression on Tc17 cells, but also dampened their expression of suppressive molecule CD39.
443 25576595 Although Tc17 cells activated with an ICOS agonist cosecreted heightened IL-17A, IL-9, and IFN-γ, their therapeutic effectiveness was critically dependent on IFN-γ production.
444 25576595 Depletion of IL-17A and IL-9 had little impact on antitumor Tc17 cells activated with an ICOS agonist.

452 25716231 The quantitative serum levels of TGF-β1, IL-9, IL-10, IL-17, IL-22, IL-23, IL-31, IL-33, and IL-35 were analyzed among chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients (n = 17), ACLF patients (n = 18), and normal control (NC) subjects (n = 18).
453 25716231 Serum TGF-β1 levels were strongly positively correlated with IL-31 in all subjects, and both of them were positively correlated with IL-17, IL-22, and IL-33.
454 25716231 In CHB and ACLF patients, serum levels of TGF-β1 and IL-31 were both increased significantly compared with those in NC subjects and positively correlated with total bilirubin (TBil) and alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) levels.
