生物谷報(bào)道：急性病毒感染和慢性病毒感染所引起的CD8+ T細(xì)胞反應(yīng)在動(dòng)力學(xué),、反應(yīng)數(shù)量級和T細(xì)胞特異性等方面具有不同特點(diǎn),。近日,，美國科學(xué)家Miller等人對天花和黃熱病疫苗接種者的CD8+ T細(xì)胞反應(yīng)進(jìn)行了縱向分析,。
天花和黃熱病疫苗接種可以很好地模擬急性病毒感染的過程,，兩種疫苗都能很快地引起大量的CD8+ 效應(yīng)T細(xì)胞產(chǎn)生,，大約兩周達(dá)到高峰期,。當(dāng)初次反應(yīng)達(dá)到最高峰，天花和黃熱病疫苗特異性的CD8+ T細(xì)胞分別占血液中CD8+ T細(xì)胞的40%和12.5%,。 通過監(jiān)測EBV-,、CMV-以及流感病毒特異性的CD8+ T細(xì)胞的反應(yīng)，證實(shí)天花和黃熱病疫苗幾乎不會(huì)引起這些病毒發(fā)生特異性CD8+ T細(xì)胞的反應(yīng),，表明無旁觀者效應(yīng)作用,。四聚體染色功能分析顯示,，病毒特異性的CD8+ T細(xì)胞首先通過表達(dá)穿孔素和顆粒酶B發(fā)揮抗病毒效應(yīng)，緊接著CD8+ 效應(yīng)T細(xì)胞效應(yīng)進(jìn)入收縮期,，數(shù)量減少到高峰期的10%左右,，然后逐漸分化成為能夠長期存活的CD8+ 記憶性T細(xì)胞。組合表型分析發(fā)現(xiàn)CD3,、CD8,、CD38、HLA-DR,、Ki67和Bcl-2能夠用以鑒定急性病毒感染中效應(yīng)T細(xì)胞的反應(yīng),，并且效應(yīng)型T細(xì)胞分化成記憶型T細(xì)胞的過程是連續(xù)性的。（生物谷www.bioon.com）

Summary
To explore the human T cell response to acute viral infection, we performed a longitudinal analysis of CD8+ T cells responding to the live yellow fever virus and smallpox vaccines—two highly successful human vaccines. Our results show that both vaccines generated a brisk primary effector CD8+ T cell response of substantial magnitude that could be readily quantitated with a simple set of four phenotypic markers. Secondly, the vaccine-induced T cell response was highly specific with minimal bystander effects. Thirdly, virus-specific CD8+ T cells passed through an obligate effector phase, contracted more than 90% and gradually differentiated into long-lived memory cells. Finally, these memory cells were highly functional and underwent a memory differentiation program distinct from that described for human CD8+ T cells specific for persistent viruses. These results provide a benchmark for CD8+ T cell responses induced by two of the most effective vaccines ever developed.
