T1 - Expression of T-cell-associated serine proteinase-1 during murine Leishmania major infection correlates with susceptibility to disease N2 - The expression of T-cell-associated serine proteinase 1 (MTSP-1) in vivo during Leishmania major infection was analyzed in genetically resistant C57BL/6 mice and in genetically susceptible BALB/c mice. Using a monoclonal antibody as well as an RNA probe specific for MTSP-1 to stain tissue sections, we found T cells expressing MTSP-1 in skin lesions and spleens of mice of both strains. In skin lesions, MTSP-1-positive T cells could be detected as early as 3 days after infection. Most importantly, the frequency of T cells expressing MTSP-1 was significantly higher in susceptible BALB/c mice than in resistant C57BL/6 mice. These findings suggest that MTSP-1 is associated with disease-promoting T cells and that it may be an effector molecule involved in the pathogenesis of cutaneous leishmaniasis.

A1 - McConville, Malcom J. A1 - Handman, Emanuela T1 - Evidence for T cell recognition in mice of a purified lipophosphoglycan from Leishmania major N2 - We have previously reported that a Leishmania major lipophosphoglycan (LPG), given with killed Corynebacterium parvum as an adjuvant, can vaccinate mice against cutaneous leishmaniasis. In order to analyze whetber T cells are able to recognize this important parasite antigen, we have studied both humoral and cellular immune responses to L. major LPG that bad been isolated from promastigotes by sequential solvent extraction and bydrophobic chromatography. The data sbow that immunization of mice with highly purified LPG induced an increase in frequency of L. major-reactive T cells and the production of immunoglobulin G antibodies to LPG. Furthermore, genetically resistant mice infected with L. major were able to develop a specific delayed-type hypersensitivity response in the ear to L. major LPG. These findings strongly suggest that T cells can recognize and respond to glycolipid antigens, in this case a bost-protective Leishmania LPG, even though such antigens appear not to be potent T-cell stimulators in mice.

In this article, Heidrun Moll presents evidence for the critical involvement of another component of the skin immune system, the epidermal Langerhans cell. She proposes that Langerhans cells take up parasites in the skin and transport them to the draining lymph node for presentation to T cells and initiation of the specific immune response.
