Outline of Final Research Achievements |
H5N1 high pathogenic avian influenza causes elevated mortality and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). I focused on the antigen presenting cell, dendritic cells, which have an important roll of the production of antibody against virus. In H5N1 infection, the number of dendritic cells interacted with T cells was decreased and impaired the production of antibody. Furthermore, H5N1 vaccine based on Vaccinia virus protected effectively against H5N1 infection due to the increase of the number of dendritic cells interacted with T cells and the induction of antibody. I identified the mechanism of associated with the severe symptoms seen with H5N1 infection.
