On immunity against infections and vaccines: credo 2004

Scandinavian Journal of Immunology
Rolf Zinkernagel, H Hengartner

Abstract

Resistance of vertebrate hosts against infections comprises important natural or innate resistance combined with adaptive immune responses of T and B cells. Viruses, bacteria or classical parasites all probe the limit of immune responses and of immunity. They, therefore, offer an excellent opportunity to assess the biology, physiology and molecular aspects of immune responses and help in characterizing the three basic parameters of immunology-- specificity, tolerance and memory. Various experiments are summarized that indicate that the rules of antiviral, antitumour, antiorgan graft and of autoimmune responses are basically the same. The practical specificity repertoire of T and B cells is probably in the order of 10(4)-10(5) specificities expressed by T cells or by neutralizing antibodies. Tolerance is best defined by rules of reactivity to eliminate infections while avoiding destruction of normal cells by complete elimination of T cells that are specific for antigens persisting within the blood and lymphatic (lymphohaemopoietic) system. Induction of a T-cell response is the result of antigens newly entering lymph nodes or spleen, initially in a local fashion and exhibiting an optimal distribution kinetics within the lymphohae...Continue Reading
