Responses of CD8(+) T cells to intracellular bacteria.
Current opinion in immunology 1999;11(1):89-93.
Recent studies of CD8(+) T cell responses against intracellular bacteria have provided insights into the relevance of the exogenous and endogenous MHC class I presentation pathways during the priming and effector stages. The capacity of these organisms to deliver vaccine antigens, either as bacterial protein or as plasmid DNA expressed by host antigen-presenting cells, has been investigated. Ongoing studies of CD8(+) T cell effector functions suggest the existence of novel pathways of resistance to bacterial infection. These results, together with advances in our understanding of nonclassical MHC class I presentation, reveal the impact of pathogen biology on host immunity to infection.
