        IL-7 Addition Increases Spot Size and Number as Measured by T-SPOT.TB

        The interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) release assay (IGRA) is an in vitro extension of the century-old in vivo tuberculin skin test, better known as the TST. Shortcomings to the TST are multifactorial and include limitations in sensitivity and specificity. IGRAs improve diagnostic specificity by using antigens not found in the Bacille Calmette-Gu�rin , a vaccine given in most countries. IGRAs capture the IFN-γ produced by T cells in response to antigen stimulation. The ELISPOT immediately captures IFN-γ produced directly from each cell, resulting in the generation of a cellular “footprint.” The dimensions and intensity of the generated footprint indicate the avidity of the secreting cell. We show a further improvement in IGRAs by addition of interleukin-7 (IL-7). IL-7 reduces T-cell apoptosis and stabilizes IFN-γ message. In addition to increasing the number of spots in the ELISPOT T-SPOT.TB platform, IL-7 increased IFN-γ production per cell as measured by an increase in spot size with no change in spot distribution.
