Popis: Intraepithelial lymphocytes (IELs) provide the first line of immunological defense after the invasion of the intestine by a pathogen. To understand the changes of IEL response in chickens, we measured the population of different subsets of avian IELs at different time points after primary inoculation of Newcastle disease virus (NDV) lentogenic strain (LaSota) and subsequent challenge with NDV velogenic strain- genotypes VII and VIII. Furthermore, NDV shed after each treatment was quantified. Specific-pathogen-free chickens were randomly divided into six groups of chickens, one to six, inoculated with phosphate buffered saline; NDV lentogenic strain (LaSota); genotype VII (GVII); LaSota and challenged with GVII (LSGVII); genotype VIII (GVIII); and group of LaSota and challenged with GVIII (LSGVIII). The chickens were euthanized at 12, 36, and 60 h postchallenge. Immunophenotyping of CD25
