Abstract excerpt
We used an ovalbumin (OVA)-specific alpha beta-TCR transgenic mouse system to examine the cellular basis of CD4+ T helper (Th) phenotype development in vitro. Heat-killed Listeria monocytogenes (HKLM) strongly promotes the in vitro development of a Th1 phenotype in OVA-specific transgenic T cells. Listeria monocytogenes effects to promote the Th1 phenotype are antigen presenting cell (APC) dependent and occur...
