| Abstract | IL-12 family members are an important link between innate and adaptive immunity. IL-12 drives Th1 responses by augmenting IFN-gamma production, which is key for clearance of intracellular pathogens. IL-23 promotes the development of IL-17-producing CD4(+) T cells that participate in the control of extracellular pathogens and the induction of autoimmunity. However, recent studies have shown that these cytokines can modulate lymphocyte migration and cellular interactions. Therefore, we sought to determine the individual roles of IL-12 and IL-23 in naive CD8(+) T cell activation by addressing their ability to influence IFN-gamma production and cellular interaction dynamics during priming by Listeria monocytogenes-infected dendritic cells (DC). We found that IL-12 was the major cytokine influencing the level of IFN-gamma production by CD8(+) T cells while IL-23 had little effect on this response. In addition, we observed that IL-12 promoted longer duration conjugation events between CD8(+) T cells and DC. This enhanced cognate interaction time correlated with increased production of the chemokines CCL1 and CCL17 by WT but not IL-12-deficient DC. Neutralization of both chemokines resulted in reduced interaction time and IFN-gamma production, demonstrating their importance in priming naive CD8(+) T cells. Our study demonstrates a novel mechanism through which IL-12 augments naive CD8(+) T cell activation by facilitating chemokine production, thus promoting more stable cognate interactions during priming. |

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.
