IL-12-assisted immunization generates CD4+ T cell-mediated immunity to Listeria monocytogenes
Mice infected with virulent Listeria monocytogenes develop long-lived acquired immunity. We previously reported that acquired immunity to Listeria could also be elicited by immunizing mice with non-viable Listeria or listerial proteins/peptides in combination with IL-12. Here we show that this IL-12-assisted immunization strategy was effective in class I but not in class II MHC-deficient mice, suggesting that antigen-specific CD4(+) T cells are selectively generated using this adjuvant system. We have also evaluated the importance of endogenous production of IFN-gamma and IL-12 for the efficacy of IL-12-assisted immunization. IFN-gamma-deficient mice immunized with HKLM and IL-12 failed to produce effective Listeria-specific responses. In contrast, IL-12-deficient mice were able to generate protective antigen-specific T cell responses in response to immunization with HKLM and IL-12, indicating that exogenous IL-12 is sufficient to initiate a cytokine cascade that results in a potent T(H)1 response. IL-12-assisted immunization provides a model in which both the generation and effector mechanisms of anti-bacterial antigen-specific CD4(+) effector cells can be analyzed.
