• W4307515211 abstract "Abstract Background Assessment of cellular immune responses by combining intracellular cytokine staining and immunophenotyping using flow cytometry enables the simultaneous measurement of T cell phenotype and effector function in response to pathogens and vaccines. The use of whole blood samples rather than peripheral blood mononuclear cells avoids both the need for immediate processing and loss of functional antigen presenting cells due to processing and cryopreservation. Using whole blood provides the possibility to stimulate peripheral T cells in situ , and is more suitable for studies where sample volume is limited, such as those involving children, the elderly and critically ill patients. The aim of this study was to provide a robust tool for the assessment of antigen-specific T cell responses in a field site setting with limited resources. Methodology/Principle Findings We optimised a flow cytometry-based whole blood intracellular cytokine assay (WBA) with respect to duration of antigen stimulation and intracellular protein retention time. We demonstrate the ability of the WBA to capture polyfunctional T cell responses in the context of acute scrub typhus infection, by measuring IFN-γ, TNF and IL-2 in CD4+ and CD8+ T cells in response to the causative agent O. tsutsugamushi (OT). Using an optimised OT antigen preparation, we demonstrate the presence of polyfunctional antigen-specific memory CD4+ T cells in the blood of scrub typhus patients. Conclusions/Significance In conclusion, this flow cytometry-based WBA is well-suited for use at field study sites, and enables the assessment of polyfunctional T cell responses to infectious agents and vaccines through delineation of antigen-specific cytokine secretion at the single cell level. Author summary Scrub typhus is an acute febrile illness caused by the bite of infected chigger mites transmitting O. tsutsugamushi, a gramnegative obligate intracellular bacteria in the family Rickettsiaceae . The disease progression and clinical manifestations are closely associated with host immune responses. T cell responses are in strong relation with immune protection against scrub typhus. As there is limited knowledge on specific T cell roles against scrub typhus, we optimized a flow-cytometer based protocol to assess O. tsutsugumushi -specific T cell responses in whole blood samples, which is suitable for studies in limited resource settings. This method requires low blood volumes, but enables multiparametric immunophenotyping assessments. The optimized WBA protocol could be a useful tool for comprehensive immunopathological studies in scrub typhus, and other infectious diseases as well as vaccine studies in areas with limited availability of specialized equipment, while reliably capturing the complexity of the immune response." @default.
