ORA I-a, a cloned Ia+ monocyte tumor line, interacts with distinct immunoregulatory T-cell subsets. ORA cells present soluble and alloantigen to primed lymph node T cells and alloantigen to antigen-activated T-cell clones. However, they induce dose-dependent suppression during primary mixed lymphocyte cultures. Activation of a mixed lymphocyte response (MLR) suppressor pathway is mediated by Ly 1+ T cells. This T-cell subset proliferates in response to ORA when Ly 2+ cells are depleted. Furthermore, once activated, Ly 1+ T cells induce effectors of suppression within fresh T-cell populations. These studies indicate that antigen presentation to distinct T-cell subsets during different stages of an immune response may be mediated by unique antigen-presenting cell subpopulations. Immune homeostasis may thus be controlled not only by regulatory T cells, but also by unique antigen-presenting cells which are responsible for their selective activation. 相似文献

A monoclonal antibody (mAb), SPV-L14, was raised that detected a human T-cell surface antigen with a molecular weight (MW) of 120 kDa on resting and phytohemagglutinin-activated peripheral blood T lymphocytes (PBL). An additional band with a MW of 130 kDa could be precipitated with variable intensities from thymocytes, neoplastic T cells, and CD4+- or CD8+ T-cell clones. Based on their reactivity with SPV-L14 and a mAb directed against CD3, four subpopulations of CD2+ lymphocytes could be detected and their existence was confirmed at the clonal level. The majority (95%) of the CD3+ cells were SPV-L14+, whereas 5% were CD3+, SPV-L14-. Among cloned cell lines CD3-,SPV-L14- and CD3-,SPV-L14+ cells were found to exist. The CD3-,SPV-L14- and CD3-,SPV-L14+ clones were shown to have NK cell activity, indicating that the 120- to 130-kDa antigen is expressed heterogeneously on CD3- NK cell clones. In addition, neoplastic T cells representing these four subpopulations were shown to exist. Although the tissue distribution and the MW of the SPV-L14 target antigen strongly suggest that SPV-L14 reacts with an epitope on CD6, the SPV-L14 mAb did not react with resting or activated B cells or with malignant B cells. Blocking studies showed that SPV-L14 inhibited the proliferative response of PBL, induced by anti-CD3 mAb, but that SPV-L14 did not affect the proliferation induced by phytohemagglutinin. These results suggest that the 120- to 130-kDa MW antigen is associated with T-cell proliferation, depending on the mode of activation. 相似文献

CD4+ TCR-gamma delta+ T cells comprise a very small subset of TCR-gamma delta+ T cells. CD4+ TCR gamma delta+ T cell clones were established to study the phenotypical and functional characteristics of these cells. Thirty-four CD4+ TCR-gamma delta+ T cell clones were established after sorting CD4+ T cells from a pre-expanded TCR-gamma delta+ T cell population. These clones as well as the CD4- TCR-gamma delta+ T cells from the same donor used V gamma 2 and V delta 2. In a second cloning experiment CD4+ TCR-gamma delta+ T cells were cloned directly from freshly isolated TCR-gamma delta+ T cells using a cloning device coupled to a FACS sorter. Forty-three clones were obtained, which all expressed CD4 and TCR-gamma delta. Eleven of these clones used V delta 1 and three of them coexpressed V gamma 2. The other CD4+ TCR-gamma delta+ T cell clones used both V delta 2 and V gamma 2. CD4+ TCR-gamma delta+ T cell clones expressed CD28 irrespective of the V gamma or V delta usage, and were CD11b negative. Three CD4-CD8+ TCR-gamma delta+ clones expressed CD8 alpha but not CD8 beta and were CD11b positive. CD28 expression among CD4-CD8+ and CD4-CD8- was variable but lower than on CD4+ T cell clones. CD4- TCR-gamma delta+ T cell clones using V gamma 2 and V delta 2 specifically lyse the Burkitt lymphoma cell line Daudi and secrete low levels of IFN-gamma and granulocyte-macrophage-CSF upon stimulation with Daudi. In contrast, most CD4+ T cell clones that use V gamma 2 and V delta 2 had a very low lytic activity against Daudi cells and secrete high levels of IFN-gamma and granulocyte-macrophage-CSF after stimulation with Daudi cells. The NK-sensitive cell line K562 was killed efficiently by the CD4- TCR-gamma delta+ T cell clones, but not by CD4+ TCR-gamma delta+ T cell clones, and could not induce cytokine secretion in CD4+ or CD4- T cell clones. CD4+ TCR-gamma delta+ T cell clones, but not the CD4- clones, could provide bystander cognate T cell help for production of IgG, IgM, and IgA in the presence of IL-2 and IgE in the presence of IL-4. Thus, CD4+ TCR-gamma delta+ T cells are similar to CD4+ TCR-alpha beta+ T cells in their abilities to secrete high levels of cytokines and to provide T cell help in antibody production.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS) 相似文献

To study the role of T cells in T-B cell interactions resulting in isotype production, autologous purified human splenic B and T cells were cocultured in the presence of IL-2 and Con A. Under these conditions high amounts of IgM, IgG, and IgA were secreted. B cell help was provided by autologous CD4+ T cells whereas autologous CD8+ T cells were ineffective. Moreover, CD8+ T cells suppressed Ig production when added to B cells cocultured with CD4+ T cells. Autologous CD4+ T cells could be replaced by allogeneic activated TCR gamma delta,CD4+ or TCR alpha beta,CD4+ T cell clones with nonrelevant specificities, indicating that the TCR is not involved in these T-B cell interactions. In contrast, resting CD4+ T cell clones, activated CD8+, or TCR gamma delta,CD4-,CD8- T cell clones failed to induce IL-2-dependent Ig synthesis. CD4+ T-B cell interaction required cell-cell contact. Separation of the CD4+ T and B cells by semiporous membranes or replacement of the CD4+ T cells by their culture supernatants did not result in Ig synthesis. However, intact activated TCR alpha beta or TCR gamma delta,CD4+ T cell clones could be replaced by plasma membrane preparations of these cells. Ig synthesis was blocked by mAb against class II MHC and CD4. These data indicate that in addition to CD4 and class II MHC Ag a membrane-associated determinant expressed on both TCR alpha beta or TCR gamma delta,CD4+ T cells after activation is required for productive T-B cell interactions resulting in Ig synthesis. Ig production was also blocked by mAb against IL-2 and the IL-2R molecules Tac and p75 but not by anti-IL-4 or anti-IL-5 mAb. The CD4+ T cell clones and IL-2 stimulated surface IgM-IgG+ and IgM-IgA+, but not IgM+IgG- or IgM+IgA- B cells to secrete IgG and IgA, respectively, indicating that they induced a selective expansion of IgG- and IgA-committed B cells rather than isotype switching in Ig noncommitted B cells. Induction of Ig production by CD4+ T cell clones and IL-2 was modulated by other cytokines. IL-5 and transforming growth factor-beta enhanced, or blocked, respectively, the production of all isotypes in a dose-dependent fashion. Interestingly, IL-4 specifically blocked IgA production in this culture system, indicating that IL-4 inhibits only antibody production by IgA-committed B cells. 相似文献

The mechanisms of immune evasion during haematological malignancies are poorly understood. As lymphomas grow in lymphoid organs, it would be expected that if these lymphomas express neo-antigens they should be readily detected by the immune system. To test this assumption, we generated a new non-Hodgkin B-cell lymphoma model expressing the model tumour neo-antigen Ovalbumin (OVA), and analysed the endogenous antigen-specific CD8(+) T-cell response that it elicited in recipient mice. The OVA+ lymphoma cells were eliminated by cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) in mice that had been previously vaccinated against OVA. In contrast, the immune system of na?ve mice ignored the malignant cells even though these continuously expressed and presented OVA on their MHC class I molecules. This state of ignorance could be overcome by therapeutic vaccination, which led to the expansion of endogenous anti-OVA-specific CD8(+) T cells. However, the cytotoxic and interferon-γ secretion capacity of these T cells were impaired. The tumour model that we describe thus reproduces several key aspects of human lymphoma; tumor ignorance can be broken by vaccination but the ensuing immune response remains ineffective. This model can be exploited to further understand the mechanisms of lymphoma immunoevasion and devise effective immunotherapy. 相似文献

A large number of monoclonal antibodies, produced by immunizing rats with mouse pre-B cell lines, have been analyzed for their ability to define cell surface antigens expressed by B cells at early stages of differentiation. Whereas many antibodies recognized antigens on pre-B cell lines, only two clones detected cell surface antigens that were distinguished by their restricted distribution among a panel of continuous cell lines and cells from various tissues. Monoclonal antibody clone AA4.1 recognized a cell surface antigen found on all pre-B lymphomas and on one of three B lymphomas tested. This antigen was found on cells at highest frequency in the bone marrow. Adult spleen and fetal liver also have detectable numbers of AA4.1+ cells. Cells that did not express this antigen include plasmacytomas, two of three B lymphomas, T lymphomas, a stem cell line, adult liver, brain, thymus, and lymph node cells. Clone GF1.2 detected an antigen on some pre-B cell lines, one of three B lymphomas tested, and a small fraction of cells from adult bone marrow, spleen, lymph node, and fetal liver. Plasmacytomas, some pre-B lymphomas, two B lymphomas, T lymphomas, adult liver, brain, and thymus cells were negative. In adult bone marrow, AA4.1 bound to all cytoplasmic IgM+ pre-B cells, whereas GF1.2 detected one-half of these cells. Both antibodies recognized approximately 50% of surface IgM+ (sIgM+) bone marrow cells. A small population of bone marrow cells lacking any detectable Ig (surface or cytoplasmic) also reacted with these antibodies. Depletion of AA4.1 or GF1.2 antigen-bearing cells from bone marrow reduced the ability of bone marrow B cells to respond to LPS by 50 to 65%. Experiments with a cloned pre-B lymphoma demonstrate that AA4.1+ pre-B cells become sIgM+ GF1.2+ B cells after activation with LPS. These antibodies recognize cell surface determinants with restricted distribution among the B lymphocyte lineage because they detect antigens displayed by normal and transformed immature B lymphocytes. 相似文献

Staphylococcal enterotoxins (SE) are known to stimulate a large proportion of T cells. SE bind to MHC-class II molecules on APC and a particular segment of certain TCR V beta and V gamma gene products. Resting human T cells do not express HLA class II Ag and therefore cannot present SE to T cells. Activated human T cells, however, do express HLA-DR, -DP, and -DQ Ag and could consequently serve as APC for SE. As such, local immune responses to SE might be regulated and/or abrogated by SE-mediated T-T cell interactions leading to T cell destruction. We have investigated if such SE-mediated T-T cell interactions can occur in vitro using human cytolytic TCR-alpha beta+ and TCR-gamma delta+ T cell clones. We demonstrate that the TCR-alpha beta+ T cell clones can efficiently present staphylococcal enterotoxin A (SEA) to each other: T cell clones coated with SEA are lysed by SEA-reactive T cell clones but not by a SEA-nonreactive T cell clone. Furthermore, the SEA-reactive TCR-alpha beta+ clones (but not the SEA-nonreactive clone) destruct themselves in the presence of SEA at low concentrations of SEA (less than 0.01 microgram/ml). Also, SEA-coated T cell clones can induce proliferative responses although such responses are much weaker than those induced when B cells are used as stimulator cells. In contrast, the SEA-reactive TCR-gamma delta+ T cell clones are resistant to autokilling in the presence of SEA and they do not lyse SEA-coated TCR-gamma delta+ targets. However, such targets can be lysed by TCR-alpha beta+ effector cells. These results indicate that TCR-gamma delta+ cells are relatively resistant to lysis and that during local nonspecific immune responses triggered by SE, which induces HLA-class II expression by the responding T cells, SE-mediated T-T cell interactions may play a role in the regulation and/or abrogation of these immune responses. 相似文献

Functional analysis of tumor-specific Th cell responses detected in melanoma patients after dendritic cell-based immunotherapy 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11
Schultz ES Schuler-Thurner B Stroobant V Jenne L Berger TG Thielemanns K van der Bruggen P Schuler G 《Journal of immunology (Baltimore, Md. : 1950)》2004,172(2):1304-1310
Recently, we have demonstrated that tumor-specific CD4+ Th cell responses can be rapidly induced in advanced melanoma patients by vaccination with peptide-loaded monocyte-derived dendritic cells. Most patients showed a T cell reactivity against a melanoma Ag 3 (MAGE-3) peptide (MAGE-3(243-258)), which has been previously found to be presented by HLA-DP4 molecules. To analyze the functional and specificity profile of this in vivo T cell response in detail, peptide-specific CD4+ T cell clones were established from postvaccination blood samples of two HLA-DP4 patients. These T cell clones recognized not only peptide-loaded stimulator cells but also dendritic cells loaded with a recombinant MAGE-3 protein, demonstrating that these T cells were directed against a naturally processed MAGE-3 epitope. The isolated CD4+ Th cells showed a typical Th1 cytokine profile upon stimulation. From the first patient several CD4+ T cell clones recognizing the antigenic peptide used for vaccination in the context of HLA-DP4 were obtained, whereas we have isolated from the second patient CD4+ T cell clones which were restricted by HLA-DQB1*0604. Analyzing a panel of truncated peptides revealed that the CD4+ T cell clones recognized different core epitopes within the original peptide used for vaccination. Importantly, a DP4-restricted T cell clone was stimulated by dendritic cells loaded with apoptotic or necrotic tumor cells and even directly recognized HLA class II- and MAGE-3-expressing tumor cells. Moreover, these T cells exhibited cytolytic activity involving Fas-Fas ligand interactions. These findings support that vaccination-induced CD4+ Th cells might play an important functional role in antitumor immunity. 相似文献

Interleukin (IL)-4 has been shown to be secreted simultaneously with IL-2 and interferon (IFN)-gamma by the majority of CD4+ human T cell clones isolated and cultured using IL-2 as a growth factor. Moreover, IL-4 was found to be as efficient as IL-2 to promote the outgrowth of human T cell clones. In this study we have investigated the pattern of lymphokine production by human T cell clones isolated and cultured in IL-4. Most of the CD4+ T cell clones isolated in IL-4 were found to have the ability to simultaneously secrete IL-2, IL-4, and IFN-gamma upon activation. The T cell clones isolated in IL-4 produced, in general, more IL-4 and less IL-2 than the clones isolated and cultured in IL-2. This tendency did not appear to be a stable feature inasmuch as when representative CD4+ T cell clones were split and cultured in either IL-2 or IL-4, the clones in IL-2 secreted more IL-2 and less IL-4 than the same cells cultured in IL-4. These results indicate that the isolation and culture of human CD4+ T cells in IL-4 did not lead to an "irreversible" development of these cells into Th-1- or Th-2-like cells. Clones isolated in IL-4 responded better to IL-4 than they did to IL-2. On the other hand, T cell clones from the same donor isolated in IL-2 showed the reverse pattern since these latter cells were found to respond better to IL-2 than to IL-4. Furthermore, "nonresponsiveness" of a T cell clones in a [3H]TdR assay to either IL-2 or IL-4 is not a stable feature since clones, unresponsive to a particular lymphokine, could be adapted to become responsive. 相似文献

Suppression of antibody synthesis by CD4+ T cell clones and normal T cells stimulated with monoclonal anti-CD3 antibody 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
CD4+ve Th1 clones, as well as normal splenic T cells, were found to suppress LPS-driven antibody secretion in a non-Ag-specific and non-MHC-restricted manner when the T cells were activated with the anti-CD3 mAb, 145-2C11. Suppression was observed with both primed and naive B cells, as well as with purified hapten-specific B cells, a result that suggests a direct effect of anti-CD3-activated T cells on B cell differentiation. Th1 clones activated by cognate Ag also suppressed LPS-driven antibody secretion. Furthermore, suppression of LPS-driven antibody secretion could be achieved across a cell-impermeable porous membrane when T cells were activated with anti-CD3. Suppression by Th1 clones and by normal T cells could not be attributed to a concomitant decrease in B cell proliferation or to a shift in the kinetics or isotype of the antibody response. These data demonstrate that CD4+ve Th1 clones, as well as normal T cells, can effect suppression of polyclonal antibody formation. 相似文献

Functional heterogeneity among human inducer T cell clones 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12
D T Umetsu H H Jabara R H DeKruyff A K Abbas J S Abrams R S Geha 《Journal of immunology (Baltimore, Md. : 1950)》1988,140(12):4211-4216
Analysis of mouse CD4+ inducer T cells at the clonal level has established that a dichotomy among CD4+ T cell clones exists with regard to types of lymphokines secreted. Mouse T cell clones designated Th1 have been shown to secrete IL-2 and IFN-gamma, whereas T cell clones designated Th2 have been shown to produce IL-4 but not IL-2 or IFN-gamma. To determine if such a dichotomy in the helper inducer T cell subset occurred in man, we examined a panel of human CD4+ helper/inducer T cell clones for patterns of lymphokine secretion and for functional activity. We identified human T cell clones which secrete IL-4 but not IL-2 or IFN-gamma, and which appeared to correspond to murine Th2 clones. In marked contrast to murine IL-2 secreting Th1 clones which do not produce IL-4 or IFN-gamma, we observed that some human T cell clones secrete IL-2, and IFN-gamma as well as IL-4. Southern blot analysis indicated that these multi-lymphokine-secreting clones represented the progeny of a single T cell. IL-4 secretion did not always correlated with enhanced ability to induce Ig synthesis. Although one T cell clone which secreted IL-2, IL-4, and IFN-gamma could efficiently induce Ig synthesis, another expressed potent cytolytic and growth inhibitory activity for B cells, and was ineffective or inhibitory in inducing Ig synthesis. These results indicate that although the equivalent of murine Th2 type cells appears to be present in man, the simple division of T cells into a Th1 and Th2 dichotomy may not hold true for human T cells. 相似文献

p97 is a human tumor-associated Ag present on most melanoma cells that represents a possible target for immunologic attack. To evaluate the capacity of T cells reactive with this protein to promote elimination of melanoma cells expressing p97, a murine model was developed by transfecting a C3H/HeN melanoma with the p97 cDNA, generating p97-specific CD4+ T cells by in vivo immunization of C3H/HeN mice with a vaccinia/p97 recombinant virus followed by in vitro cloning with soluble p97 protein, and determining whether these CD4+ T cells could mediate rejection of pulmonary metastases. Characterization of the T cell clones demonstrated the presence of both I-Ak and I-Ek-restricted clones, although the majority of clones recognized p97 in the context of I-Ek. Analysis of clonal specificity using truncated p97 proteins revealed that at least three epitopes were immunogenic, and further studies with overlapping 15-amino acid peptides from a region of the p97 molecule defined by these truncated proteins identified an immunodominant epitope responsible for the majority of the I-Ek response. The T cell clones were not capable of directly recognizing the p97-expressing melanoma cells but responded to the tumor if syngeneic APC were present to process the tumor-derived p97 Ag. The therapeutic efficacy of these CD4+ T cell clones was evaluated in an adoptive therapy model in which mice bearing metastatic pulmonary lesions were treated by i.v. administration of the p97-specific cells. Despite the inability of the CD4+ clones to directly respond to or lyse the tumor cells, the clones were effective in promoting tumor eradication. In vitro studies demonstrated that this may have reflected secretion of lymphokines that activated macrophages to lyse the tumor. The results suggest that noncytolytic p97-specific CD4+ T cell clones can be effective in therapy of pulmonary melanoma metastases. Moreover, if human T cells reactive with the p97 protein could be generated, the expression of this tumor-associated Ag in melanoma cells might be adequate for such T cells to mediate a therapeutic antitumor response. 相似文献

Previous studies have shown that human CD8-positive T cells activated by immobilized mAb to the CD3 complex have the capacity to support the generation of Ig secreting cells (ISC). The experiments reported here were undertaken to examine the nature of CD8+ T cell helper function in greater detail. CD8+ T cells that had been treated with mitomycin C (CD8+ mito) and stimulated by immobilized mAb to CD3 (64.1) provided help for the generation of ISC from resting B cells. By contrast, CD8+ mito did not support the generation of ISC in cultures stimulated by pokeweed mitogen (PWM). This could not be explained by differences in the production of IL2, since PWM and anti-CD3 induced comparable amounts of IL2 from CD8+ mito. In anti-CD3-stimulated cultures, CD8+ mito supported the generation of larger numbers of ISC when B cells were also activated with Staphylococcus aureus (SA). By contrast, in PWM-stimulated cultures, CD8+ mito did not provide help for SA-activated B cells. Rather, PWM-stimulated CD8+ mito appeared to suppress the generation of ISC induced by PWM-activated CD4+ mito or by SA + IL2, whereas anti-CD3-stimulated CD8+ mito did not. Only control CD8+ T cells, which were able to proliferate, exerted suppressive effects in anti-CD3-stimulated cultures. Examination of the functional capacities of a battery of CD8+ T cell clones indicated that the same clonal population of CD8+ cells could provide help or suppress responses when stimulated with anti-CD3 or PWM, respectively. The functional activities of CD8+ clones differed from those of fresh CD8+ cells. Thus, anti-CD3-stimulated CD8+ clones provided help for B cells regardless of whether they were treated with mitomycin C. Moreover, PWM stimulated suppression by CD8+ clones was abrogated by treating the clones with radiation or mitomycin C. These results indicate that helper T cell function is not limited to the CD4+ T cell population, but that help can also be provided by appropriately stimulated CD8+ T cells. Taken together, these results indicate that CD8+ T cells are not limited in their capacity to regulate B cell responses, but rather can provide positive or negative influences depending on the nature of the activating stimulus. 相似文献

Differences in surface phenotype and mechanism of action between alloantigen-specific CD8+ cytotoxic and suppressor T cell clones 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
We have previously demonstrated that fresh CD8+ T cells proliferate in response to autologous, alloantigen-primed CD4+ T cells, and differentiate into Ts cells, which inhibit the response of fresh T cells to the primary allogeneic stimulator cell but not irrelevant stimulators. Although such Ts do not have discernible cytolytic activity, like classical cytotoxic T cells (Tc) they express CD3 and CD8 on their surface and function in a class I MHC-restricted manner. Our study was an attempt to compare the surface phenotype and mechanism of action of Ts and Tc clones derived from the same individual. Ts clones were generated from donor JK by repeated stimulation of CD8+ T cells with an autologous CD4+ T inducer line specific for an allogeneic lymphoblastoid cell line (LCL). These clones were noncytolytic for either the inducer line or the allogeneic stimulator LCL. Tc clones, generated by direct stimulation of JK CD8+ T cells with the same allogeneic LCL, mediated potent, alloantigen-specific cytolysis. All Tc clones were alpha, beta TCR+, CD3+, CD4-, CD8+, CD11b-, and CD28+. Ts clones were also alpha, beta TCR+, CD3+, and CD8+, but in contrast to Tc clones, Ts clones were CD11b+ and CD28-. When added to MLR both Ts and Tc clones inhibited the response of fresh JK CD4+ T cells to the original but not irrelevant allogeneic LCL. However, Ts inhibited the response of only those CD4+ T cells that shared class I)MHC determinants with the Ts donor, whereas Tc inhibited the response of CD4+ T cells from all responders, regardless of HLA type. Pretreatment of Ts clones with mAb to CD2, CD3, or CD8 blocked suppression, whereas similar pretreatment of Tc clones blocked cytotoxicity in 4-h 51Cr release assays but had no effect on Tc-mediated suppression of the MLR. These results suggest that both Ts and Tc clones can inhibit the MLR but they do so through different mechanisms. Moreover, the maintenance of distinct surface phenotypes on these long term clones suggests that Ts may be a distinct sublineage of CD8+ T cells rather than a variant of CD8+ Tc. 相似文献

Analysis of the functional capabilities of CD3+CD4-CD8- and CD3+CD4+CD8+ human T cell clones 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9

The functional capabilities of human peripheral blood CD3+CD4-CD8- and CD3+CD4+CD8+ T cell clones were examined. The clones were generated by culturing purified populations of CD3+CD4-CD8- and CD3+CD4+CD8+ T cells at limiting dilution (0.3 cell/well) in the presence of PHA, rIL-2, and irradiated PBMC as feeders. Twelve CD3+CD4-CD8- and 5 CD3+CD4+CD8+ clones were generated. Clonality was documented by analyzing TCR gamma- and beta-chain rearrangement patterns. All CD3+CD4-CD8- clones were stained by the TCR-delta 1 mAb that identifies a framework epitope of the TCR delta-chain, but not by mAb WT31 that identifies the TCR-alpha beta on mature T cells. In contrast, the CD3+CD4+CD8+ clones were all stained by WT31 and not by TCR-delta 1. All 17 clones were screened for various functional activities. Each secreted IL-2, IFN-gamma, and lymphotoxin/TNF-like factors when stimulated with immobilized mAb to CD3 (64.1), albeit in varying quantities. These clones secreted far less IL-2 and IFN-gamma than CD3+CD4+CD8- or CD3+CD4-CD8+ alpha beta expressing clones, but comparable amounts of lymphotoxin/TNF. All clones also functioned as MHC-unrestricted cytotoxic cells. This activity was comparable to that mediated by the CD3+CD4+CD8- or CD3+CD4-CD8+ alpha beta clones. Nine of 12 CD3+CD4-CD8- and 4 of 5 CD3+CD4+CD8+ clones were able to support B cell differentiation when activated by immobilized anti-CD3, but usually not as effectively as the CD3+CD4+CD8- or CD3+CD4-CD8+ alpha beta clones. The differences in the functional capabilities of the various clones could not be accounted for by alterations in the signaling capacity of the CD3 molecular complex as mAb to CD3 induced comparable increases in intracellular free calcium in each clone examined. When clones were stimulated with PWM, each suppressed B cell differentiation supported by mitomycin C-treated fresh CD4+ T lymphocytes. Suppression was dependent on the number of clone cells added to culture, but could be observed with as few as 12,500 cells per microtiter well. Phenotypic analysis of the clones revealed that all expressed CD29, CD11b, and the NKH1 surface Ag. These results demonstrate that the CD3+CD4-CD8- and CD3+CD4+CD8+ T cell clones exhibit many of the functional characteristics of mature T cells, although they produce IL-2 and IFN-gamma and provide help for B cell differentiation less effectively than CD3+CD4+CD8- and CD3+CD4-CD8+ alpha beta T cell clones. 相似文献

Correlation between the biologic functions and the generation of lymphokines in T cell clones 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

We have recently reported that various murine T cell clones produce IL-1. Based on this observation we have analyzed in the present study the correlation between the biological functions and the generation of different lymphokines in (T,G)-A--L specific CD4+ clones. One subset of clones--the "helper clones"--were found to provide help to primed B cells, in vitro. These cells could be shown to produce IL-1, IL-2, and B cell stimulatory factor 1 (IL-4) activities and to express mRNA encoding for these three cytokines. The second subset of clones, termed "proliferative clones", were unable to help B cells in vitro but expressed vigorous Ag-dependent proliferations. These cells did not express IL-1, IL-2, or IL-4 activities. They produced another lymphokine(s) which may be granulocyte-macrophage-CSF, or some other factor recognized by the HT2 cell line. This study further substantiates the link between T cell activities and lymphokine repertoire with a special emphasis on the potential role(s) of T cell-derived IL-1. 相似文献

The contribution of parasite-specific T cells to isotype restriction in Mesocestoides corti-infected mice 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Mice infected with the parasite Mesocestoides corti undergo a polyclonal antibody response that results in a hypergammaglobulinemia restricted to the IgM and IgG1 isotypes. It was found that a similar restriction to IgM and IgG1 could be observed in an in vitro lymphocyte culture system providing that the source of helper T cells was from infected animals. In order to characterize the helper T cells responsible for the restriction, helper T cell clones were generated. Attempts to obtain isotype-restricting helper T cell clones by using the intact, nonviable organism were unsuccessful in that these T cell clones promoted multiple antibody class expression. However, two types of CD4+ (cluster designation) T cell clones were generated by cultivation on the live organism that appeared relevant to the observed restriction. These T cells did not function as conventional carrier-specific helper T cells. Instead, they were shown to regulate T-dependent responses to 2,4-dinitrophenyl-keyhole limpet hemocyanin by 2,4-dinitrophenyl-specific B cells and keyhole limpet hemocyanin-primed T cells derived from uninfected mice. The helper phenotype of one regulatory clone enhanced the IgG1 response, whereas the other phenotype inhibited the production of the other non-IgM isotypes tested. It is concluded that the activities of these two prototype regulatory T cell clones may predominate in infected animals resulting in the IgM, IgG1 dominance of the antibody response. 相似文献

Human T cell clones cytotoxic for autologous sarcoma cell lines have been developed from patient JM with an osteogenic sarcoma, and from patients EG and RM with malignant fibrohistiocytoma. These clones were derived from the cocultivation of peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) with the respective patient's autologous irradiated established tumor cell lines (AIT). After two cycles of stimulation for 5 days in bulk culture, these "educated" lymphocytes were seeded at a density of 1 X 10(6) cells/well in 24-well plates and were cultured in the presence of highly purified natural IL 2 and AIT, the latter serving as a feeder layer. Cell numbers were reduced from the initial seeding density by one log each week until reaching a density of 10(2) cells. These cells were found to be stable in viability and cytotoxic activity, after which limiting dilution was then performed. Within 4 to 6 wk, clones were isolated with unique specificities. These clones were capable of proliferating to a total density of 10(9) cells/ml and maintained their specific cytotoxicity for more than 6 mo. Testing with a panel of target cells of various histotypes, cold-target inhibition assays, and blocking of cytotoxicity with anti-HLA monoclonal antibodies showed that the T cell clones recognize a common sarcoma-associated antigen and that the lysis is HLA restricted. Phenotypically, cytotoxic clones derived from JM were Leu-1+, Leu-2+, and Leu-3-, whereas those derived from EG exhibited either Leu-24 or Leu-3+ markers, the latter phenotype lacking cytotoxicity. RM exhibited mainly Leu-3+ clones with strong cytotoxicity. All were HNK-1- and HLA class II+, with less than 1% of cells of each clone stained by anti-TAC monoclonal antibody. The clones from each patient did not lyse autologous or allogeneic PBL, mitogen-induced T lymphoblasts, normal fibroblasts, cells isolated from benign neoplasms, carcinoma cells, Daudi B lymphoid cells, or K562 cells. With the exception of EG, all clones produced immune interferon in a range from 12 to 50 U/ml. The generation of long-term specific T cell clones can be used to further dissect the cellular immune response to sarcomas. Cytotoxic T cell clones have potential application for tumor immunotherapy. 相似文献

Human adenovirus (HAdV) infection is a frequent and potentially severe complication following allogeneic stem cell transplantation in children. Because treatment with antiviral drugs is often ineffective, adoptive transfer of donor-derived HAdV-specific T cells able to control viral replication of HAdV of multiple serotypes may be an option for therapy. In healthy donors, predominantly HAdV-specific T cells expressing CD4 are detected. In this study, a preclinical in vitro model was used to measure the antiviral effect of HAdV-specific CD4+ T cells. CD4+ HAdV-specific T cell clones restricted by HLA class II molecules were generated and most of these clones recognized conserved peptides derived from the hexon protein. These cross-reactive T cell clones were able to control viral replication of multiple serotypes of HAdV in EBV-transformed B cells (B-LCL), melanoma cells (MJS) and primary bronchial epithelial cells through cognate interaction. The HAdV-specific CD4+ T cell clones were able to specifically lyse infected target cells using a perforin-dependent mechanism. Antigenic peptides were also presented to the CD4+ T cell clones when derived from endogenously produced hexon protein. Together, these results show that cross-reactive HAdV-specific CD4+ T cells can control replication of HAdV in vitro and provide a rationale for the use of HAdV-specific T cells in adoptive immunotherapy protocols for control of life-threatening HAdV-infections in immunocompromised patients. 相似文献

Class II-specific allogeneic cytolytic T lymphocytes (CTL) consist of two types of cells, i.e., Lyt-2+L3T4- and Lyt-2-L3T4 T cells. The Lyt-2+L3T4- class II-specific CTL population constitutes a conspicuous exception to the general correlation observed between the class of major histocompatibility complex antigen recognized and the type of accessory molecules expressed by T cells. In order to examine the specificity of such an exceptional T cell population, CTL clones were established by limiting dilution of a bulk CTL line developed in an I region incompatible combination of mouse strains, B10.QBR anti-B10.MBR. These CTL lines showed single genetic specificity indicating their clonal nature with respect to CTL activities. Lyt-2+L3T4- (2+4-), Lyt-2-L3T4+ (2-4+) and Lyt-2-L3T4- (2-4-) clones were obtained. Among many CTL clones showing a spectrum of genetic specificities, 2+4- and 2-4+ clones with apparent I-Ak-specificity, were studied further and four lines of evidence confirmed their class II specificity: 1) genes encoding the target antigen for these CTL clones were mapped within the I-A subregion by simple genetics; 2) an I-Ak-specific monoclonal antibody readily blocked specific cytolysis by these clones; 3) the clones failed to react with cells expressing mutated I-Ak antigens; and 4) a B cell tumor transfected with alpha- and beta-chain genes of I-Ak was specifically lysed by these CTL clones. These data therefore establish the existence of Lyt-2+ CTL with genuine class II specificity. All 2-4+ CTL were sensitive to the blocking effect of an antibody to L3T4, whereas none of the 2+4- class II-specific CTL were sensitive to blocking by an anti-Lyt-2 antibody, indicating that class II-specific CTL with "wrong phenotype" is not dependent on the function of the accessory molecule. Besides true class II-specific CTL clones, 2+4- clones with a spectrum of genetic specificities were obtained, including clones recognizing a combination of an I-Ak product and the Kb molecule. Two 2-4- clones were also specific for the combination of Kb + I-Ak. These clones most likely recognize an allogeneic class II antigen in the context of a class I antigen and therefore would more appropriately be included in the class I-restricted T cell population. 相似文献
