| Abstract | Intratracheal instillation of L-selectin-deficient (L-Sel(-/-)) mice with an adenovirus 2 (Ad2) vector resulted in the lack of respiratory Ad2- or beta-galactosidase-specific CTLs with concomitant long-lived beta-galactosidase transgene expression in the lungs. The absence of Ag-specific CTLs was attributed to a deficiency in lymphoid CD11c(+)CD8(+) dendritic cells (DCs) in the lower respiratory lymph nodes (LRLNs). To enable L-Sel(-/-) CTL activity, cell-sorted L-Sel(-/-)CD8(+) T cells were cocultured with cell-sorted L-Sel(+/+)CD8(+) or CD8(-) DCs or L-Sel(-/-)CD8(-) DCs. Only the CD8(+) DCs restored CTL activity; L-Sel(-/-)CD8(-) DCs failed to support L-Sel(+/+) CTLs because these remained immature, lacking the ability to express costimulatory molecules CD40, CD80, or CD86. Although no lung CD8(+) DCs were detected, the DC environment remained suppressive in L-Sel(-/-) mice evident by the lack of CTL responses following adenoviral challenge with OVA in recipient L-Sel(-/-) adoptively transferred with OT-1 CD8(+) T cells. To assess whether the L-Sel(-/-)CD8(-) DCs could be induced into maturity, microbial stimulation studies were performed showing the failure of L-Sel(-/-) LRLN to make matured DCs. When L-Sel(-/-) mice were subjected in vivo to microbial activation before Ad2 vector dosing, CTL activity was restored stimulating the renewed presence of LRLN CD8(+) DCs in L-Sel(-/-) mice. These studies show that impairment of L-Sel(-/-) DC maturation results in insufficient mature DCs that require microbial activation to restore increases in respiratory CD8(+) DCs to support CTL responses. |

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.
