Dendritic Cell Maturation and Cytokine Secretion by T Cells Stimulated in vitro with Influenza A Virus Vaccines and Hemagglutinin Proteins.¹

1<p>Immature dendritic cells loaded with antigen, matured with cytokines and used to present antigens to T cells that secrete cytokines.</p>2<p>Monovalent vaccine (manufacturer) or recombinant HA proteins described in M&M.</p>3<p>As determined in FACS for CD83 and HLADR.</p>4<p>Numbers of ELISpots for indicated cytokine secretion after T cell stimulation; unstimulated lymphocytes, DC only and medium controls did not show ELISpots.</p>5<p>The test was before and after dialysis in a repeat test, after dialysis result shown.</p>6<p>NT = not tested.
