Lymphocytes expressing CD3, CD4, CD8, pan lymphocyte, IgA, IgG and IgM cell surface antigens were assessed by in the spleen and thymus of chickens following infection with Salmonella enteritidis using flow cytometric analysis. At 6 days post primary infection and 2 days post secondary infection with S. enteritidis, the percentages of IgA+ and IgM+ lymphocytes in the spleen were significantly increased (P < 0.05). At 2 days post secondary infection with S. enteritidis, the percentage of CD4+ T lymphocyte in the spleen and CD8+ T lymphocyte percentage in the thymus were significantly increased (P < 0.05). These results indicate that S. enteritidis infection induces changes in the spleen and thymus that reflect the dynamics of the host protective immune response.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
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.

D011201 Poultry Diseases Diseases of birds which are raised as a source of meat or eggs for human consumption and are usually found in barnyards, hatcheries, etc. The concept is differentiated from BIRD DISEASES which is for diseases of birds not considered poultry and usually found in zoos, parks, and the wild.

D005434 Flow Cytometry Technique using an instrument system for making, processing, and displaying one or more measurements on individual cells obtained from a cell suspension. Cells are usually stained with one or more fluorescent dyes specific to cell components of interest, e.g., DNA, and fluorescence of each cell is measured as it rapidly transverses the excitation beam (laser or mercury arc lamp). Fluorescence provides a quantitative measure of various biochemical and biophysical properties of the cell, as well as a basis for cell sorting. Other measurable optical parameters include light absorption and light scattering, the latter being applicable to the measurement of cell size, shape, density, granularity, and stain uptake.

D013950 Thymus Gland A single, unpaired primary lymphoid organ situated in the MEDIASTINUM, extending superiorly into the neck to the lower edge of the THYROID GLAND and inferiorly to the fourth costal cartilage. It is necessary for normal development of immunologic function early in life. By puberty, it begins to involute and much of the tissue is replaced by fat.
