Crude salivary gland derived proteins from Amblyomma americanum ticks were analyzed by physiochemical (gel filtration and ion exchange chromatography) and immunochemical guinea pig IgG1 (anti-tick immunoaffinity column) techniques for the presence of antigens responsible for the induction of host immune resistance responses. Gel filtration (G-75 Sephadex) and ion exchange (diethyl aminoethyl cellulose) chromatography of crude salivary gland antigen yielded multiple fractions, but only one fraction from each procedure induced significant cutaneous anaphylaxis bluing reactions when used for skin tests in tick sensitized animals treated intravenously with 0.5% Evans blue dye. Salivary gland antigen (200 ng) eluted from the immunoaffinity column by 0.2 M Na2CO3, pH 11.3, and emulsified with incomplete Freund's adjuvant conferred a significant level of tick rejection (24%, P less than 0.001) on naive guinea pigs compared with that seen in controls, but less than (P less than 0.01) the level of immunity conferred by crude salivary gland antigen (380 micrograms). The immunizing dose of immunoaffinity purified salivary gland antigen was 1/1900 the dose of the crude antigen preparation representing 99.9% purification. Furthermore, engorged ticks from animals immunized with salivary gland antigen exhibited a significant decrease (P less than 0.001) in weight compared with ticks from naive animals. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of 125I labeled proteins in the Na2CO3 eluate and the skin reactive fraction from gel filtration and ion-exchange chromatography, after immunoprecipitation with a guinea pig IgG1 antibody to the tick that transferred resistance, revealed the presence of a 20 kDa weight protein reported previously to be the antigen responsible for the induction of host resistance. These studies present physiochemical and immunochemical procedures for the purification of an important tick protein that induces skin reactions in tick sensitized guinea pigs, is recognized by antibody to the tick, and most importantly, is capable of immunizing naive guinea pigs against tick challenge. 相似文献

Varicella-zoster virus (VZV), adapted to grow in guinea pig fibroblasts, was injected subcutaneously into Hartley, strain 2, and strain 13 guinea pigs. Serum immunoglobulin G antibodies were detected 2 weeks later, and T-cell proliferative responses by blood lymphocytes were found 3 weeks after injection. The proliferating cells bound the 155 antibody, which defines a CD4-like subset of guinea pig T lymphocytes. VZV-infected fibroblasts of human, Hartley, and strain 13 origin elicited equivalent amounts of proliferation, which was quantitatively greater than that obtained with an extracted VZV antigen. Uninfected (control) human or guinea pig fibroblasts did not elicit T-cell proliferation. The proliferative response to VZV required the presence of autologous (strain 2 or 13) antigen-presenting cells and was blocked by the addition of an anti-class II major histocompatibility complex antibody. Effector cells obtained from in vitro cultures mediated class II-restricted cytotoxicity to L2C cells incubated with VZV. Class I-restricted responses were obtained only by cross-priming strain 2 animals with strain 13 peritoneal exudate cells which had been preincubated with VZV. The data indicate that guinea pigs resemble humans in that class II-restricted T cells with specificity for VZV are more readily cultured from blood than are class I-restricted cells. 相似文献

Immune response gene control of antibody specificity 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The expression of the histocompatibility-linked PLL Ir gene was investigated in guinea pig B cells. Strain 2 and F1 (2 × 13) guinea pigs, immunized with the αDnp-Lys9, produce both T cells and antibody which are equally discriminatory for αDnp-Lys9. In contrast strain 13 (PLL Ir gene negative) guinea pigs immunized with αDnp-Lys9 do not develop specific T-cell responses and the antibody produced while restricted in heterogeneity cannot differentiate the immunizing antigen from Dnp-OH. However, if in a F1 (2 × 13) environment, PLL Ir gene-negative B cells are provided with F1 (2 × 13) T cells they express the ability to make antibody as specific and discriminatory as the antibody produced by PLL Ir gene-positive B cells. These findings strongly suggest that in the guinea pigs the PLL Ir gene defect is localized to the T cells and that the repertoire of specificity of B cells is similar if not identical in both responder and nonresponder animals. In addition these observations support the notion that the cellular locus for the PLL Ir gene expression in the guinea pigs is limited to T cells and not to macrophages and B lymphocytes. 相似文献

Delayed-type hypersensitivity and in vitro lymphocyte response in guinea pigs immunized with a live varicella vaccine 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The relation of delayed type hypersensitivity (DTH) assessed by the Varicella-Zoster virus (VZV) skin test and lymphocyte transformation (LTF) with VZV antigen was investigated in guinea pigs immunized with live varicella vaccine virus, or heat-inactivated vaccine virus. Guinea pigs immunized with live varicella vaccine virus showed positive DTH and LTF responses to viral antigen as well as a neutralizing (NT) antibody response, while those immunized with heat-inactivated vaccine virus showed only an NT antibody response of the same degree as that to live vaccine virus. These results show the reliability of the skin test in assessing cell-mediated immunity (CMI) to VZV and the advantage of the live varicella vaccine over the inactivated one in immunizing guinea pigs. 相似文献

Ferritin-challenged skin sites and draining lymph nodes were studied in normal guinea pigs and in guinea pigs which had been passively sensitized to ferritin or peroxidase by lymphoid cell transfer to ascertain whether Langerhans cells can bind antigen in skin and carry it to lymph nodes. After intradermal challenge with amounts of ferritin as small at 5 μg, ferritin-containing Langerhans cells were seen by electron microscopy in the marginal sinus and cortex of draining lymph nodes in ferritinscnsitized animals and, to an apparently lesser degree, in control animals. Lymph nodes from unchallenged normal guinea pigs contained rare Langerhans cells, none of which had ferritin. The findings indicate that Langerhans cells may pick up antigen in skin and from there circulate to draining lymph nodes, thus carrying out a function analogous to macrophages. In this way they may exhibit antigen to lymphocytes both in skin and in lymph nodes. 相似文献

Both humoral and cell-mediated immune responses to the synthetic helical hapten-carrier conjugate poly-Glu-Tyr-Lys(TNP)-(Glu-Tyr-Ala)5 were found to be linked to the major histocompatibility locus in mice and guinea pigs. The responder mouse strains (H-2d haplotype) showed a primary IgM response with an IgG component appearing after the secondary immunization. The antibody response was accompanied by a positive DTH reaction in responder strains. Nonresponder mice (H-2b or H-2k haplotypes) showed neither IgM nor IgG antibodies and the DTH reaction was negative. Administration of the antigen as a complex with an immunogenic carrier was not effective in inducing a response in nonresponder mice. In guinea pig studies, it was found that strain 2 animals were able to mount an antibody response against the TNP-hapten and a DTH response against the polypeptide backbone. Strain 13 animals gave no anti-TNP antibodies at the lower dose levels and DTH activity was entirely negative for all doses of immunizing antigen. Replacement of the TNP hapten by the arsanilazo dipeptide derivative, BOC-gly-ARA-tyrosine, converted the nonresponder strain 13 guinea pigs into complete responders showing antibody and DTH reactions to both the hapten and the polypeptide backbone. 相似文献

An immune ribonucleic acid (RNA) preparation was extracted with phenol from the spleens of guinea pigs immunized with diphtheria toxoid. Antibody-carrying cells were detected by immunocyte adhesion as rosette-forming cells. When germ-free rats, conventional guinea pigs or mice were injected intraperitoneally with this preparation, the rosette-formers were detected in either peritoneal exudate cells or spleen cells, whereas serum antibodies were unable to be detected thus far in such animals. Two injections with this preparation did not cause any remarkable increase in the number of rosette-formers, and serum antibody was also not detectable. By contrast, a high titer of serum antibody was demonstrated and the number of rosette-formers increased shortly after an injection of a small amount of diphtheria toxoid into guinea pigs which had previously received an injection with immune RNA. This reaction indicates a secondary response of antibody formation. However, secondary responses were not induced by injections of immune RNA preparations in guinea pigs primed with either diphtheria toxoid or immune RNA preparation. These facts suggest that immune RNA preparations did not contain antigens or fragments thereof and the immune response induced by RNA preparation is not the same as that induced by stimulation by the antigen itself. These results moreover can be accounted for by the notion that the immune RNA preparation is able to induce “memory” cells capable of responding to a secondary stimulus with an antigen and producing a high titer of serum antibody. 相似文献

Antigenicity of penicillin G (PCG) was studied in guinea pigs. PCG 5 mg, 10 mg or 25 mg with Freund's complete adjuvant each on days 0, 7 and 21 was injected to a guinea pig: intramuscularly into both thighs and intracutaneously into four locations on the back. A remarkable antigenicity was induced in animals immunized with 25 mg although only low antigenicity in 5 mg and 10 mg. A maximum serum level of the antibody was observed about 2 weeks after last immunization and all of animals immunized with 25 mg died in active systemic anaphylaxis test. As mentioned above, it has been firstly demonstrated that a remarkable antigenicity of PCG can be produced by immunizing with a high dose of 25 mg in the guinea pig model in which PCG itself is used as immunogen. 相似文献

Homogeneous albumin has been isolated from the serum of strain 13 guinea pigs. The 2,4-dinitrophenyl (DNP) conjugate of this albumin (DNP9 guinea pig albumin) can be used even at high doses (100 μg) to distinguish easily the nonresponder strain 2 guinea pigs from the responder strain 13 animals. This observation modifies the previous conclusion that clear-cut discrimination of responders and nonresponders requires the use of low doses (i.e., 1 μg) of such a hapten-protein conjugate. Since albumin polymers as well as additional protein contaminants comprise a large proportion of some commercial albumin preparations, these ancillary molecules appear to be responsible for the previous suggestion that protein carriers differed from synthetic peptides in that low immunizing doses were required to distinguish responder from nonresponder animals. That responsiveness in nonresponders can be increased by inclusion of polymeric forms of the antigen in the immunizing mixture raises the possibility that those cells which “process” antigens may play a major role in immune response (Ir) gene control. 相似文献

A tumor specific transplantation antigen (TSTA) has been detected in a methylcholanthrene (MCA) induced guinea pig tumor. It was possible to induce resistance to rechallenge with the tumor by immunization with irradiated cells in CFA. In contrast, the same technique failed to detect TSTA in two viral (Kirsten strain mouse sarcoma virus, Ki-MSV) induced guinea pig tumors; these results are similar to observations made with mouse Ki-MSV-induced tumors. Transplantation studies with these tumors in both inbred and random-bred guinea pigs showed a complexity of growth and rejection patterns. The B alloantigen, a major serologically defined antigen of the guinea pig histocompatibility complex, seemed to play a central role in acting as a guniea pig transplantation antigen. In all cases studied, the absence of B antigens in the recipient led to tumor rejection and anti-B antibody protection. 相似文献

Herpesvirus (GPHV) antigen is either present in very small amounts, or absent in leukemic lymphoblasts taken directly from strain 2 guinea pigs. However, after maintenance in tissue culture for 72 hr, almost 100% of these lymphoblasts contained GPHV antigen. The expression of GPHV antigen could be demonstrated by indirect immunofluorescent technique as well as by the direct (125)I labeled antibody technique. However, infectious virus or virus capsids could not be detected in these cells either by infectivity tests or electron microscopy. 相似文献

The effect of repeated weekly antigen challenges by aerosol on bronchopulmonary responses to ACh, histamine, neurokinin A or atropine-resistant (NANC) component of vagal stimulation, has been studied in guinea pigs. Bronchospastic responses were measured in anaesthetized animals, 7 days after the last challenge with antigen (or vehicle). No difference was observed between control and antigen challenged guinea pigs in their responsiveness to acetylcholine (1-300 mumol kg-1 i.v.) or histamine (1-300 mumol kg-1 i.v.). On the other hand, amplitude of bronchospasm induced by neurokinin A (1-3 mumol kg-1 i.v.) or NANC vagal stimulation (20 Hz, 1 msec, 10 V, trains of 5-20 sec) was significantly increased in guinea pigs previously challenged with antigen, as compared to controls. These results suggest that repetitive antigen exposure in sensitized guinea pigs generates an increase in the responsiveness to exogenously administered or endogenously released tachykinins, at a time when no generalized hyperresponsiveness to other spasmogens could be observed. 相似文献

Role of mediators of cellular hypersensitivity in the stimulation of the antibody formation to unrelated antigen 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The effect of a concurrent delayed hypersensitivity reaction on the antibody response to sheep red cells was assessed by a plaque assay. Guinea pigs with delayed hypersensitivity to tuberculin purified protein derivative (PPD) or egg albumin showed an increased antibody response to sheep red cells when the cells were injected intravenously at the same time as PPD or egg albumin. This effect was transferred to normal guinea pigs by serum from guinea pigs with delayed hypersensitivity to PPD or egg albumin taken 24 hr after injecting the corresponding antigen. Supernatants containing migratory inhibitory factor were prepared by incubating lymphocytes from sensitized rabbits with antigen. These supernatants were injected with sheep red cells and gave rise to an enhanced plaque response. Similar results were obtained with supernatants from normal rabbit thymus cells. The role of mediators of delayed hypersensitivity in enhancing antibody formation and in T cell/B cell cooperation is discussed. 相似文献

Cutaneous basophil hypersensitivity (CBH) reactions are a heterogeneous group of delayed time course basophil-rich immune responses that can be mediated in the guinea pig by T cells, B cells, or IgG1 antibody. This study examined whether guinea pig IgE antibody could also mediate CBH reactions. IgE antibody to picryl or oxazolone determinants was induced by immunizing Hartley strain guinea pigs pretreated with cyclophosphamide. Hyperimmune serum from these animals was passed through a heavy chain-specific anti-IgG1 affinity column. The presence of IgE anti-hapten antibody in the filtrate fraction was verified by passive cutaneous anaphylaxis (PCA) testing with a 7-day period of local passive sensitization and by the heat lability (56 degrees C, 4 hr) of PCA activity. This IgE-rich fraction and the IgG1 fraction eluted from the column with base (0.2 M Na2CO3, pH 11.3) were transferred i.v. to separate groups of normal guinea pigs. Both fractions mediated delayed time course reactions that contained basophils. Macroscopic and microscopic reactions mediated by the IgE-rich fraction were abolished with heat (56 degrees C, 4 hr). Thus, two antigen-specific factors in guinea pig serum can mediate delayed time course basophil-containing reactions: IgG1 and IgE antibodies. IgE-mediated CBH reactions are similar to the late-phase reaction that follows IgE-dependent wheal-and-flare reactions in humans. The finding that guinea pig IgE can mediate a late reaction that contains basophils makes this a possible model for the human late-phase response, and suggests that some forms of CBH may play a role in human allergic disease. 相似文献

Rabbit reagents previously thought to display specificity for a cross-reactive idiotype on anti-VHa allotype antibody from all tested rabbits have recently been shown to be contaminated with an induced (latent) molecule similar or identical to the original antigen (rabbit a1 or a2 allotype). In an attempt to circumvent this problem, we have immunized guinea pigs with rabbit anti-a1 allotype antibody to produce heterologous anti-idiotype antibody. The resulting guinea pig antibody (GP anti-R IdX) recognizes anti-a1 antibody from each of 17 immunized rabbits, and in four tested samples reacts with 22 to 100% of the molecules. Neither goat nor guinea pig anti-a1 reacts with the guinea pig anti-R IdX antibody, even though the goat, guinea pig, and rabbit anti-a1 Ab all recognize a similar set of a1 determinants. The reaction between IdX-bearing rabbit anti-a1 and guinea pig anti-R IdX is inhibited by the original antigen (a1 IgG), demonstrating that the IdX is at or near the antigen combining site of anti-a1 antibody. Immunoelectron microscopy of immune complexes supports this conclusion and demonstrates that the reactive site on the GP anti-R IdX is at or near its antigen combining site. 相似文献

Cilia-associated respiratory (CAR) bacillus isolated from infected mice (designated, CBM) and propagated in embryonated chicken eggs was inoculated intranasally in rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus), guinea pigs (Cavia porcellus), hamsters (Mesocricetus auratus) and mice (Mus musculus). Gross and microscopic lesions, localization of CBM antigen in the respiratory tract, development of antibody, and ability to reisolate the CAR bacillus were studied in animals killed at 2-, 4-, or 8-week intervals postinoculation (PI). In rabbits, although no histopathological changes were observed in the respiratory tract, CBM antigen was detected on the ciliated epithelium of the respiratory tract, and serum CBM antibody was also detected 4 and 8 weeks PI. In guinea pigs, no histopathological changes were noted, CBM antigen was detected in the respiratory tract 2 and 4 weeks PI but not 8 weeks PI, and serum CBM antibody was detected 4 and 8 weeks PI. In hamsters, mononuclear cell proliferation in the submucosa of the bronchus and trachea was observed 8 weeks PI. CBM antigen was detected at first in the nasal cavity 2 weeks PI and in the lower respiratory tract 4 and 8 weeks PI and serum CBM antibody was detected 4 and 8 weeks PI. In mice, histopathological changes, CBM antigen and CBM antibody were observed. CBM was reisolated from the tracheal washouts of hamsters and mice 8 weeks PI but not from those of rabbits and guinea pigs. These results confirm and extend previous reports of experimentally-induced CAR bacillus infection in mice, guinea pigs, and rabbits. To this list of susceptible laboratory animals, we now add hamsters.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Summary Lithium 3,5 diiodosalicylate (LIS), a chemical utilized for the noncytolytic extraction of cell surface antigens, was used in this study to extract glycoproteins from the cell membranes of L2C-EN leukemic blast cells. The crude soluble antigen (LIS-L2C) preparation was found to confer immunoprotection in syngeneic guinea pigs against a lethal challenge of L2C-EN. Titration of the crude LIS-L2C soluble antigen extract revealed that 1 mg antigen gave 100% protection against a 2×105 viable tumor cell challenge 2 weeks after immunization and that immunizing doses of 0.1 mg, 0.25 mg, and 0.5 mg soluble antigen afforded 17%, 66%, and 83% protection, respectively. The specificity of this immune response was demonstrated by the failure of guinea pigs immunized with 1 mg LIS extract prepared from another guinea pig tumor (line 10 hepatoma) to be refractory to a similar L2C tumor cell challenge. A cell-mediated immune response to the LIS-L2C soluble antigen was observed in animals, based on a positive delayed hypersensitivity response to the soluble antigen 5 weeks after immunization. Similarly, in vitro testing revealed a specific blastogenic recognition of the soluble antigen by immune leukocytes. 相似文献
