Abstract
The objective of the study was to develop an assay for bovine IL-10 that could be applied to analyses of immune responses and advance understanding of a variety of diseases of cattle. Recombinant bovine IL-10 (rbo IL-10) was transiently expressed in Cos-7 cells and shown to inhibit the synthesis of IFN gamma by bovine cells stimulated with antigen in vitro. Mice were immunised with a plasmid containing a cDNA insert encoding rbo IL-10 and inoculated with rbo IL-10. A number of monoclonal antibodies (mAb) were generated that reacted with rbo IL-10 in an ELISA. Some of these mAb neutralised the ability of rbo IL-10 to inhibit IFN gamma synthesis by antigen-stimulated bovine cells. A pair of mAb was identified that together could be used to detect both recombinant and natural bovine IL-10 present in supernatant of PBMC stimulated with ConA. A luminescent detection method was applied to the ELISA making it more sensitive. Using this method native IL-10 was detected in supernatants of PBMC, diluted blood and undiluted blood from cattle immunised with Mycobacterium bovis BCG or ovalbumin and incubated in vitro with antigen indicating the applicability of the assay to a number of in vitro culture systems.

Abstract
Pre-exposure to environmental mycobacteria and induction of an inappropriately biased immune response may be major factors affecting the efficacy of BCG; vaccination of neonates that have not been exposed to environmental mycobacteria may induce more effective immunity. Responses of neonatal calves to mycobacterial antigens using dendritic cells (DC) as antigen-presenting cells were investigated. In nonvaccinated, immunologically naive calves as young as 1 day old, a population of CD8(+) cells proliferated and produced IFN-gamma in response to BCG-infected DC. CD3(-) CD8(+) NK-like and CD3(+) CD8(+) T cells were evident within the responding CD8(+) population. The response was not MHC-restricted. The NK-like CD3(-) cells were the major population producing IFN-gamma. The presence of mycobacteria-reactive, IFN-gamma-secreting CD8(+) NK cells in neonatal calves may have important consequences for the induction of a Th1-biased immune response.

Abstract
The synthesis of IFN gamma and IL-4 by CD4, CD8 and WC1 gamma delta TCR(+) T cell sub-populations, and T cells stained with activation/memory-sub-set markers has been examined by flow cytometric analysis. Cells from blood, prescapular, bronchial and mesenteric lymph nodes and Peyer's patches were incubated with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), ionomycin and brefeldin-A before staining. Lymphocytes that stained for cytoplasmic IFN gamma were evident within the CD4 and CD8 populations from all tissues and also in the WC1 population from lymph nodes. IL-4 producing cells were primarily evident within the CD4 population. IFN gamma synthesis was evident within both CD45RO(+) and CD45RB(+) populations, but IL-4 synthesis was predominantly by cells that were CD45RO(+)/CD45RB(-). Expression of CD62L is not related to functional memory in CD4(+) T cells from cattle and CD62L(+) cells, particularly from the lymph nodes draining the skin and the lungs, stained with mAb to IFN gamma and IL-4. The findings indicate that at least for CD4(+) T cells, where CD45 isoform expression is related to functional memory, these two cytokines are produced predominantly by cells with a memory phenotype. The observation that some WC1(+) cells produce IFN gamma implies the presence of distinct sub-sets of this gamma delta TCR(+) population cattle and suggests a functional role.

Abstract
The major subset of dendritic cells (DC) from bovine afferent lymph expresses the SIRP alpha MyD-1 antigen, but not CD11a or the antigen recognized by mAb CC81, and potently stimulates CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocyte proliferation. The minor subpopulation, that is CD11a+ CC81+ MyD-1-, effectively stimulates CD4+ but not CD8+ T lymphocyte proliferation. CD11a+ CC81+ MyD-1- DC did not induce anergy or death or secrete an inhibitory factor. However, supernatant from cultures of CD8+ T cells with CD11a- CC81- MyD-1+ DC significantly enhanced proliferation of CD8+ T cells in response to CD11a+ CC81+ MyD-1- DC, an effect that was blocked by interleukin (IL)-1alpha, but not IL-1beta, specific mAb. The proliferation of CD8+ T cells with CD11a+ CC81+ MyD-1- DC was also enhanced by adding IL-1alpha. IL-1beta slightly enhanced proliferation, whereas IL-2, IL-6, IL-12, and IL-15 had no effect. We conclude that the failure to stimulate CD8+ T cell proliferation results from the lack of IL-1alpha synthesis by this population, which may have important consequences in vivo.

Abstract
Twelve subpanels of monoclonal antibodies (MAb) included within the 6th International Workshop on Human Leukocyte Differentiation Antigens (6th HLDA) were assayed for reactivity with bovine peripheral blood leukocytes. Sixty-nine of the 807 MAb (8.6%) stained bovine cells. These MAb represented 30 different human CD groups. Nine of the MAb to different human CD antigens (CD19, CD23, CD39, CD47, CD86, CD117, CD120b, CDw149, CD165) potentially recognized antigens on cattle cells that had not previously been identified. These were investigated further by two-colour immunofluorescence to compare the cellular expression of the antigen on cattle cells with that reported for the different CD antigens in humans. Four of the MAb that belonged to CD23, CD39, CD47, and CDw149 stained bovine cells in a manner that indicated an almost identical cellular distribution of the antigen to that reported in humans. This implied that these MAb reacted with the homologous cattle molecules. Further work would be necessary to confirm specificity of CD19, CD86, CD117, CD120b and CD165 MAb. Other cross-reacting MAb either recognized antigens already defined in cattle or antigens not yet clustered in humans. The study has identified valuable new reagents for studies of cattle and confirmed that most common cross-reactive MAb are to epitopes on integrins.

Abstract
Few data are available regarding the induction of memory T-lymphocyte responses in cattle following Bacille Calmette Guérin (BCG) vaccination. Studies of the immune response induced by BCG vaccination provide an insight into the basis of antimycobacterial immunity that could be exploited for the development of more effective vaccination strategies. We used autologous dendritic cells (DC) infected with Mycobacterium bovis Bacille Calmette Guérin (BCG) or pulsed with purified protein derivative from M. bovis (PPD-B) or M. avium (PPD-A) to assess responses of CD4+, CD8+ and WC1+ gammadelta TCR+ lymphocytes from BCG vaccinated and nonvaccinated cattle. Mycobacteria-specific CD4+ and CD8+, but not WC1+ gammadelta TCR+, memory T lymphocytes were demonstrated in BCG-vaccinated cattle. CD4+ and CD8+ lymphocytes proliferated and produced interferon (IFN)-gamma in response to BCG-infected or PPD-B-pulsed DC. Proliferative responses were greater for CD4+ than CD8+ lymphocytes, although secretion of IFN-gamma was higher from the CD8+ T cells. Responses to PPD-A-pulsed DC were lower, with no CD8+ response. Lymphocytes from nonvaccinated calves were also stimulated to proliferate by BCG-infected DC, although the magnitude of proliferation was lower. The findings suggest that immunity to M. bovis induced by BCG vaccination in cattle may involve CD8+ memory T cells which produce IFN-gamma, as well as CD4+ memory T cells.

Abstract
Dendritic cells are professional antigen presenting cells derived from the bone marrow and distributed throughout body tissues where they are located in sites that are suitable for antigen uptake. They are central to the induction of immune responses in naive animals and thus have become targets in strategies that are aimed at modulating resistance to infection. Studies in cattle have shown that the dendritic cells are phenotypically heterogeneous and that the different phenotypes have different biological properties. The molecular basis for this variation has begun to be investigated and has led to the identification of a member of the SIRPalpha family of signal regulatory proteins (MyD1) on a subset of dendritic cells in afferent lymph. Uptake of antigen by cattle dendritic cells is by a number of mechanisms that can involve endocytosis via clathrin coated pits or via caveolae as well as macropinocytosis.

Abstract
Changes in lymphocyte subsets in the trachea, pulmonary tissue, bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL), peripheral blood and bronchial lymph node (BLN) of gnotobiotic calves infected with bovine respiratory syncytial virus (BRSV) were analysed by flow cytometry. Following BRSV infection, virus titres in the nasopharynx reached a peak between days 5 and 7 and infection was resolving from day 10. Although calves did not develop signs of clinical respiratory disease, there was evidence of gross pneumonia and histological changes typical of BRSV bronchiolitis, which were most extensive from day 710 of infection. Following BRSV infection there was a recruitment of CD8+ T cells into the trachea and lung, which peaked on day 10 after infection. Thus, there were approximately equal numbers of CD8+ and CD4+ T cells in the lung and trachea of uninfected calves, whereas by day 10 of infection, CD8+ cells outnumbered CD4+ cells by 3:1 in the lungs and 6:1 in the trachea of the infected calves. Although the increase in CD4+ T cells into the lungs was less marked than that of CD8+ T cells, changes in expression of CD45R, CD45RO, L-selectin and interleukin-2 receptors all suggested that CD4+ T cells were activated during BRSV infection. Changes in gamma delta T cells were not observed in BRSV-infected calves. There was a marked increase in B cells in the BLN after infection and BLN CD4+ T cells changed from the majority expressing L-selectin and CD45R in uninfected calves to a predominance of L-selectin- CD45R- CD45RO+ phenotype, 10 days after infection. In conclusion, CD8+ T cells constitute the major lymphocyte subpopulation in the respiratory tract of calves recovering from BRSV infection.

Abstract
Immunofluorescent staining and flow cytometric analysis of dendritic cells from cattle afferent lymph has established that within the afferent lymph veiled cells (ALVC) there are two phenotypically distinct, major populations. One is CD11a+, CD5+, CD21- and expresses the bovine WC10 (workshop cluster 10) molecule and the Ag recognized by mAb CC81 but is not recognized by mAbs CC149 and IL-A24. The second ALVC subpopulation is CD11a-, CD5-, CD21+/-, workshop cluster 10- and is not recognized by mAb CC81 but is recognized by mAb CC149. Thus, the two populations, which can be identified by staining for CD11a, are defined by the differential expression of a number of Ag. The ALVC populations had differing capacities to stimulate T cells. CD11a- ALVC were more effective at stimulating proliferative responses in allogeneic CD4+ T cells and CD8+ T cells. This was not related to binding of CTLA4Ig or CD40L fusion proteins, implying similar levels of expression of their ligands, CD80 and CD86 or CD40. Both subsets were able to present OVA to resting memory CD4+ T cells, indicating that both were able to take up and process soluble native protein. In contrast, the CD11a- ALVC were more effective in presenting respiratory syncytial virus Ag to resting CD4+ T cells. Considering the central role of dendritic cells in the initiation of immune responses in naive animals, the two cell types may have different roles in the induction of primary responses induced following infection or immunization.

Abstract
Thirty-seven subpanels of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) included within the Vth International Workshop on Human Leucocyte Differentiation Antigens (Vth Workshop) were assayed for reactivity with bovine peripheral blood leucocytes. Sixty-five of the 772 mAbs (8.4%) stained bovine cells. mAbs from each of the 27 different CD groups that contained a mAb reacting with cattle were further investigated to compare the cellular expression of the antigen in cattle with that reported for the different CD antigens in humans. Two-colour immunofluorescence staining of the Vth Workshop mAbs against characterized bovine leucocyte subpopulation markers that identified monocytes, B cells, CD4, CD8 and WC1 +T cells were used for these analyses. Eighteen of the mAbs to different human CD antigens (CD11a, CD14, CD18, CD21, CD27, CD29, CD49a, CD49b, CD49d, CD49e, CD51, CD61, CD62L, CD62P, CD63, CDw78, CD98, CD100) stained bovine antigens with an almost identical cellular distribution to that reported in humans. This implies that these mAb react with the homologous cattle molecules. Nine mAbs (CD35, CD37, CD49c, CD50, CD54, CD66, CD81, CD88, CD102) stained bovine cells but the cellular distribution of the bovine antigen was different to that reported in humans implying either a different cellular distribution for these antigens in cattle or a reaction with a different molecule. The investigation has allowed the identification of several bovine homologues of human CD antigens that have not been previously defined in cattle and the cross-reacting mAbs will be valuable reagents for future investigations of bovine immunology.

Abstract
An in vitro model system has been developed in which freshly isolated resting WC1+ gamma/delta TcR+ T cells proliferate in response to cells transformed by the protozoan parasite Theileria annulata, providing a strategy in which the basis of activation of naive gamma/delta T cells can be investigated. Irradiated parasite-transformed cells stimulate the proliferation, but not cytolytic activity, of autologous peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from non-immune animals. The proliferating cells are mainly WC1+ gamma/delta T cells. The majority of WC1+ gamma/delta T cells in freshly isolated PBMC express CD25 at a low level that increases when stimulated with T. annulata-infected cells. Purified WC1+ gamma/delta T cells fail to proliferate when cultured with irradiated T. annulata-infected cells and produce a small proliferative response to IL-2, but proliferate strongly to irradiated or lightly fixed Theileria-infected cells in combination with IL-2. The Theileria-infected cells express cytokine transcripts encoding IL-1 alpha, IL-1 beta, IL-6 and IL-10, but not IFN gamma, IL-2, IL-4 and IL-7. Purified WC1+ gamma/delta T cells stimulated with T. annulata-infected cells with or without IL-2 fail to produce IL-2 transcripts, but do produce those for TNF alpha. These experiments show that WC1+ gamma/delta T cells recognize a surface determinant on T. annulata-infected cells, that together with a second signal, which can be provided by exogenous IL-2, stimulates their proliferation.

Abstract
Dendritic cells were identified in afferent lymph derived by lymphatic cannulation of cattle, stained with monoclonal antibody (mAb) to the bovine workshop cluster 6 (WC6) antigen, which is highly expressed on bovine afferent lymph veiled cells, and sorted with a fluorescence-activated cell sorter. These cells expressed major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I and II and CD1b but not CD14. They bound human and murine CTLA4-immunoglobulin (CTLA4-Ig) fusion proteins indicating expression of CD80 and or CD86. Dendritic cells induced proliferative responses in allogeneic CD4+ and CD8+ cells sorted from blood but did not induce responses in purified allogeneic WC1+, gamma/delta T cells, which are CD2-, CD4-, CD8- and are the major gamma delta T-cell population in cattle blood, even when interleukin-2 (IL-2) was added to cultures. A WC1-, CD2+ gamma delta T-cell receptor (TCR)+ population predominates in cattle spleens and proliferation of a T-cell line with this phenotype was not induced by allogeneic dendritic cells, with or without added IL-2. The observations imply that the ligand for the gamma delta TCR expressed on the two populations is not present on allogeneic dendritic cells or that the costimulatory molecules expressed on dendritic cells that render them highly effective at stimulating MHC class I- and class II-restricted CD8+ and CD4+ T cells are not recognized by the WC1+ or WC1- gamma/delta T cells. Expression of CD28 by the four cell types was assessed by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Purified CD4+ and CD8+ cells both produced CD28 transcripts but neither purified WC1+ cells nor the WC1- gamma delta TCR+ cell line did so. The findings indicate that CD80 and or CD86 are involved in the stimulation of CD4+ and CD8+ alpha beta TCR+ T cells but not in the stimulation of either of the two gamma delta TCR+ populations.

Abstract
Eight monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) clustered together in a statistical analysis of data submitted to the Third Workshop on Ruminant Leucocyte Antigens to form provisional cluster (PC) 36. PC36 included the CD45R workshop control mAb CC76. The mAbs were compared by two-colour immunofluorescence with mAbs against other leucocyte subpopulation antigens. The flow cytometry results indicated that all of the mAbs identified CD45R.

Abstract
Six monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) that clustered together in a statistical analysis of data submitted to the Third Workshop on Ruminant Leucocyte Antigens and mAb CC-G33 were tested for ability to stain COS-7 cells transfected with cDNA encoding human CD14. Only mAb CC-G33 recognised the human molecule. The six mAbs were compared with mAb CC-G33 by flow cytometry and three were shown to be directed against bovine CD14.

Abstract
An antigen has been identified, recognized by a novel monoclonal antibody CC45, which is expressed by a subpopulation of bovine gamma/delta T-cell receptor-positive (gamma/delta TCR+) T cells restricted in their distribution to the intestinal epithelium. This subset of intestinal intraepithelial lymphocytes (iIEL) which represented 8-29% of gamma/delta TCR+ T cells in the gut epithelium expressed CD45, CD3 and L-selectin; most of these cells were CD2- and CD8-. Electron microscopic studies of CC45+ cells revealed that they were large mononuclear leucocytes containing numerous mitochondria and smooth vesicles; a proportion of these contained membrane-bound dense granules. Immunoprecipitation of 125I-labelled iIEL analysed by sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis under reducing and non-reducing conditions revealed polypeptides of 60,000 and 200,000 molecular weights, respectively indicating that the antigen, which appears distinct from molecules described in other species, is expressed on the cell surface as a complex.
