The role of M cells in mucosal immunity 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue in the respiratory and digestive tracts are covered by a specialized epithelium, the follicle-associated epithelium, which includes M cells, which are specialized for the uptake and transcytosis of macromolecules and microorganisms. Following transcytosis, antigens are released to cells of the immune system in lymphoid aggregates beneath the epithelium where antigen processing and presentation and stimulation of specific B and T lymphocytes are achieved. Circulation of the lymphoid cells enables their homing to their original, and other, mucosal sites where they exert the effector function. Such a response may be dominated by secretory immunoglobulin A release and may include cytotoxic T lymphocyte action. Binding of particles to the apical M cell membrane may be nonspecific or due to specific interaction between molecules such as integrins and lectins. Exploiting the specific binding to M cells is an aim for mucosal vaccination, for example to increase the efficiency of uptake of an oral vaccine by its conjugation to an M-cell-specific molecule. Alternatively, an M-cell-specific live vector, such as attenuated Salmonella bacteria, may be used to deliver epitopes of other organisms. Mucosal vaccination efficiency may also be enhanced by a temporary increase in the number of M cells. Therefore, investigation of the properties and ontogeny of M cells must be pursued to allow the development of better mucosal vaccines for the future. 相似文献

One of the main techniques embodied in many pattern recognition systems is cluster analysis — the identification of substructure in unlabeled data sets. The fuzzy c-means algorithms (FCM) have often been used to solve certain types of clustering problems. During the last two years several new local results concerning both numerical and stochastic convergence of FCM have been found. Numerical results describe how the algorithms behave when evaluated as optimization algorithms for finding minima of the corresponding family of fuzzy c-means functionals. Stochastic properties refer to the accuracy of minima of FCM functionals as approximations to parameters of statistical populations which are sometimes assumed to be associated with the data. The purpose of this paper is to collect the main global and local, numerical and stochastic, convergence results for FCM in a brief and unified way. 相似文献

The Malpighian tubules in female nymphs and adults of Pteronarcys californica Newport are larger and whiter than in males. This difference is detectable in nymphs as small as 300 mg in live weight (final instar nymphs weigh 800 to 1600 mg depending on sex), and is most pronounced in late nymphs and adults. These differences are thought to be related to the increased excretory load imposed by the synthesis of ooplasm in the late female nymph and adult. 相似文献

Résumé Les auteurs ont déterminé par la méthode de la chromatographie à deux dimensions, la teneur en glutamine et en acide -aminobutyrique des différentes parties du cerveau du chat. La concentration la plus élevée de l'acide -aminobutyrique a été trouvé dans l'hypothalamus, tandis que celle de la glutamine a été constatée dans le noyau caudé. Les concentrations les plus basses de ces deux protéines apparaissent dans la substance blanche du cerveau. 相似文献
