Abstract:
<p>More than a century after the identification of the tubercle bacillus and the first attempts at vaccination, tuberculosis (TB) still remains one of the world’s most serious infectious diseases. TB, caused by the bacterium <i>Mycobacterium tuberculosis</i>, is typically a disease of the lung, which serves both as port of entry and as the major site of disease manifestation. The currently used vaccine, BCG, is administered parenterally and induces a systemic immune response. However, it fails to protect against pulmonary TB, thereby raising the question whether vaccination targeting the mucos

Abstract:
This thesis aimed to the identification of immune biomarkers of mycobacterial infection for better diagnosis of tuberculosis (TB) and also focused on new vaccination strategies with a particular emphasis on the immune responses in the respiratory tract using murine models. Since the lung is the natural habitat for the M. tuberculosis, we reasoned that immune responses detected locally in the lungs would be good correlates of infection (Paper I). Likewise, immune responses induced in the respiratory tract following immunization would be more effective against mycobacterial infection. We showed

Abstract:
The mucosal immunity of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract is constituted by a complex, highly specialized and dynamic system of immune components that aim to protect the gut from external threats. The sustained exposure of the mucosal immune system of the GI tract to an enormous number of lumen antigens, requires the constant upkeep of a highly regulated balance between initiation of immune responses against harmful agents and the generation of immune tolerance towards innocuous antigens. Therefore, the regulatory component is key to preserve tissue homeostasis and a normal functioning of the sy

Abstract:
The Toll pathway mediates innate immunity, the first line of defense against pathogens in vertebrates and invertebrates. In Drosophila the Toll pathway protects against Gram-positive bacteria and fungi by inducing antimicrobial peptides such as Drosomycin. Pellino is a highly conserved protein which biochemically interacts with Pelle/IRAK, a crucial kinase downstream of Toll. Here we report that the chemically induced Pellino 7T2 mutant does not affect Toll pathway function in early embryonic dorsoventral patterning, but it severely compromises induction of Drosomycin upon infection with Gram

Abstract:
This thesis examines the transformative impact of the immune network theory on theoretical immunology, especially how immunity has been understood and described metaphorically in the scholarship. The immune system had been conventionally couched in warfare rhetoric. At the end of the nineteenth century, Russian scientist and pathologist Elie Metchnikoff depicted pathogens as savages in the theory of phagocytosis, which, he postulated, the body must destroy with equal ferocity. Virologist Frank Burnet further affirmed this concept in 1957. In the Clonal Selection Theory, he articulated the mode
