RESUMO
The kinetics and homing characteristics of T-cell responses in humans after mucosal immunizations have not been well characterized. Therefore, we have investigated the magnitude and duration of such responses as well as the homing receptor expression of antigen-specific peripheral blood T cells by using an oral model vaccine, i.e., the live, attenuated Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi vaccine (Ty21a). Eight volunteers were each given three doses of the vaccine 2 days apart, and blood samples, from which CD4+ and CD8+ T cells were selected by the use of magnetic beads, were collected before vaccination and at regular intervals thereafter. To purify the potentially antigen-specific gut-homing T cells, CD45RA− integrin β7+ cells were further sorted by flow cytometry. The sorted cells were then stimulated in vitro with the serovar Typhi vaccine strain, and the proliferation of cells and the cytokine production were measured. Following vaccination, there was a large increase in both the proliferation of and the gamma interferon (IFN-γ) production by blood T cells stimulated with the vaccine strain. The responses were seen among both CD4+ and CD8+ T cells, although the CD8+ cells produced the largest amounts of IFN-γ. Peak responses were seen 7 to 14 days after the onset of vaccination. Furthermore, most of the IFN-γ produced by both CD4+ and CD8+ cells emanated from cells with the potential to home to mucosal tissues, as the integrin β7-expressing memory T cells produced around 10-fold more IFN-γ than the remaining populations. In conclusion, we demonstrate that oral vaccination with a live oral bacterial vaccine induces antigen-specific CD4+ and CD8+ memory T cells, almost all of which express the gut-homing integrin β7.
