Vγ9+Vδ2+Tcell-mediated purging of <i>Listeria monocytogenes</i> -infected epithelial cells requires butyrophilin 3A genes
2023-06-07
Abstract excerpt
Intracellular bacteria produce antigens, which serve as potent activators of γδ T cells. Phosphoantigens are presented via a complex of Butyrophilins (BTN) to signal infection to human Vγ9+Vδ2+ T cells. Here, we established an in vitro system allowing for studies of Vγ9+Vδ2+ T cell activity in coculture with epithelial cells infected with the intracellular bacterial pathogen Listeria monocytogenes . We report tha...
