Catfish lymphocytes expressing CC41-reactive leukocyte immune-type receptors (LITRs) proliferate in response to Edwardsiella ictaluri infection in vitro

Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) CC34 and CC41 recognize overlapping subsets of leukocyte immune-type receptors (LITRs). The mAb CC34 was raised against the clonal TS32.15 cytotoxic T cell line and the mAb CC41 was raised against the clonal NK cell line TS10.1. In this study, an in vitro model was devel...

Description
Summary:Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) CC34 and CC41 recognize overlapping subsets of leukocyte immune-type receptors (LITRs). The mAb CC34 was raised against the clonal TS32.15 cytotoxic T cell line and the mAb CC41 was raised against the clonal NK cell line TS10.1. In this study, an in vitro model was developed to monitor CC34- and CC41-reactive cells in response to Edwardsiella ictaluri infection. Briefly, head kidney leukocytes and peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) were isolated from individual catfish and labeled with CellTrace Violet and CellTrace FarRed dye, respectively. Head kidney-derived macrophages were infected with E. ictaluri and then cocultured with autologous PBL. The combined cell cultures were then analyzed using flow cytometry. A significant increase in CC41 staining was observed in the PBL population at 2, 5 and 7 days after culture, which suggest that LITRs are involved in cell-mediated immunity to E. ictaluri. •Development of an assay to measure cellular responses against intracellular infection.•Cell labeling monitors distinct populations in autologous mixed leukocyte reactions.•E. ictaluri infected head kidney macrophages stimulate LITR expressing lymphocytes.•CC41+ lymphocytes proliferate in response to E. ictaluri infected macrophages.
