• Macrophages and neutrophil cells don’t destroy N. asteroides
• Injection of sensibilized T lymphocytes is protective in athymic mice inoculated with N. asteroides.
• Superoxido dismutase (SDO) and catalase are present in virulent strains, mutants (SDO-) are not virulent.
• Athymic mice inoculated with N. asteroides developed disseminated infections with similar lesions observed in immunosuppresed human patients.

Interleukines and Immunoglobulines in actinomycetoma murine model
• IFN-γ increasing (10 folds)
• Increase of IL-4, IL-6, IL-10
• Increase of IgM (7 day)
• Increase of IgG (45 day)
9
OBJECTIVES
• By the cytokine profile obtained in proliferation assay of peripheral blood monocyte cell, to know the type of adaptative immune response (Th1 or Th2) exhibited by actinomycetoma patients.
• To demonstrate that this response is different to the response elicited in healthy people.

METHODS
1. N. brasiliensis antigen obtention
2. Intradermal application of PPD y candidine
3. Proliferation assay of peripherical blood monocyte cell (PBMC)
4. Quantification of: IFN-γ, TNF-α, IL-4 and IL-10. using supernatants of proliferation assay
5. Seric levels of IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4.

Candidin Normal (+) Increased
PPD Normal (+) ± (some of theme neg.)
Cell proliferation Normal Normal
IFN-γ Normal Low with NB2, NB4 y NB6
TNF-α Present with all antigensHigher than in control (PPD, NB y NB2)
IL-10 Low concentrationsHigher than in control (PPD, NB y NB2)
1L-4 Absent Present
IgG1, IgG2 Present with all antigens Higher than in control
IgG3, IgG4 Present with all antigens 2 - 4 fold higher

CONCLUSIONS
• The patients’ PBMC exhibited a normal antigenic recognizing.
• The cytokine profile in patients corresponded to TH2 type response.
• The immunoglobulin titres (mainly IgG3 and IgG4) are also compatible with a TH2 response.
