| Abstract | To assess the separate contributions of host T cells and the physical state of the antigen in the development of effective. Salmonella resistance, glutaraldehyde-treated and untreated protein- and ribonucleic acid-rich extracts (E-RNA extracts) of virulent Salmonella typhimurium SR-11 or attenuated S. typhimurium RIA were used to immunize Salmonella-resistant Salmonella-susceptible strains of mice for the purpose of determining whether antigen-specific T-cell or B-cell responses were formed and, if so, which responses predominated. The resistance imparted to each mouse strain after vaccination with S. typhimurium RIA was used as the standard for comparison. The inbred mouse strains C57BL/6 and DBA/2 and their F1 hybrid (strain BDF1), outbred ICR Swiss mice, and endotoxin-resistant C3H/HeJ mice were examined for the capacity to develop resistance to lethal Salmonella infections, as well as the ability to generate antigen-reactive T cells. Only the BDF1, C3H/HeJ, and ICR Swiss mice were able to develop resistance to challenge infections mediated by the virulent SR-11 strain of S. typhimurium after vaccination with the living, attenuated RIA strain of S. typhimurium or immunization with E-RNA extracts. We developed an assay to identify the antigen-reactive rosette-forming lymphocytes present in lymph nodes and spleens of immunized mice. Levels of 0.2% or higher of theta antigen-bearing, antigen-reactive rosette-forming cells were found in the lymph nodes or spleens or both of only the BDF1, C3H/HeJ, and ICR Swiss mice (i.e., in the “Salmonella responder” strains). Mouse strains C57BL/6 and DBA/2, which failed to develop resistance to lethal infections after immunization with the S. typhimurium RIA vaccine or with the E-RNA extracts, lacked effective numbers of antitheta antigen-sensitive rosette-forming cells. Modification of the effective E-RNA extracts by polymerization with glutaraldehyde resulted in a marked diminution in their abilities to induce resistance to salmonellosis in the two responder mouse strains tested (BDF1 and ICR Swiss), even though detectable levels of antibody were induced. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
