The role of cellular immunity in mycoplasma infection is not completely understood. In this study, we established mycoplasma-specific T-cell clones to evaluate cellular immunity in mycoplasma infection. We developed a T-cell clone (G-10) which was stimulated with Acholeplasma laidlawii. The T-cell clone G-10, CD4+ and T-cell receptor (TCR) alpha beta- recognized the 42- and 65-kilodalton (kDa) membrane proteins of A. laidlawii and responded to A. hippikon. Hence, the application of mycoplasma-specific T cells such as G-10 in animal models may allow the assessment of cellular immune response to mycoplasma infection.

D007111 Immunity, Cellular Manifestations of the immune response which are mediated by antigen-sensitized T-lymphocytes via lymphokines or direct cytotoxicity. This takes place in the absence of circulating antibody or where antibody plays a subordinate role.

D008213 Lymphocyte Activation Morphologic alteration of small B LYMPHOCYTES or T LYMPHOCYTES in culture into large blast-like cells able to synthesize DNA and RNA and to divide mitotically. It is induced by INTERLEUKINS; MITOGENS such as PHYTOHEMAGGLUTININS, and by specific ANTIGENS. It may also occur in vivo as in GRAFT REJECTION.
