- W2028500185 abstract "Immunity against the intracellular protozoan Toxoplasma gondii is highly dependent on interferon gamma (IFN-gamma). We have previously shown that, in addition to T lymphocytes, natural killer (NK) cells can be stimulated by the parasite to produce this cytokine by a reaction requiring adherent accessory cells and tumor necrosis factor alpha. We now demonstrate that a recently characterized cytokine, interleukin 12 (IL-12), is also necessary for parasite-induced IFN-gamma synthesis by NK cells. Anti-IL-12 antibodies completely inhibited T. gondii or bacterial endotoxin-stimulated IFN-gamma production by NK-enriched spleen cells from severe combined immunodeficient mice. Moreover, potent NK cytokine responses were induced by the combination of IL-12 and tumor necrosis factor alpha. In addition, adherent spleen cells from scid/scid mice or thyoglycollate-elicited macrophages from BALB/c animals produced high levels of both IL-12 (p40) and tumor necrosis factor alpha mRNAs when exposed to either live tachyzoites, parasite extracts, or endotoxin, confirming that these cytokines are produced by accessory cells. Finally, in vivo studies showed that treatment with recombinant IL-12 results in prolonged survival of scid mice after infection with T. gondii by means of a response dependent on both IFN-gamma and NK cells. Together the data argue that IL-12 is required for the T-cell-independent triggering of NK cells by intracellular parasites and that the cytokine may be useful for inducing this protective pathway in immunodeficient hosts." @default.
