Cellular interaction between MOPC-104E (M104E) cross-reactive idiotypic (CRI) antibody-producing B lymphocytes and lymphocytes generated by immunization with the relevant idiotype, M104E, was investigated. Adoptive transfer of M104E idiotype-primed and normal spleen cells into 600R x-irradiated syngeneic recipient mice resulted in striking enhancement of the M104E-CRI positive antibody response upon simultaneous immunization of recipients with dextran B1355S. The enhancement was not attributable to a simple additive effect but was due to synergistic cooperation between the two lymphocyte populations. This synergistic enhancement of the anti-idiotype immune cells producing CRI antibody was specific for MOPC-104E CRI, and was reproducible in an in vitro culture system. Because of the cellular characteristics of the enhancing cells, they were assumed to be B lymphocytes specific for the corresponding idiotype, since the activity was not abrogated by treatment with anti-Thy-1, anti-Lyt-1, anti-Lyt-2, or anti-brain-associated theta antisera plus complement, but was eliminated by means of a planning method using a rabbit-anti-mouse immunoglobulin-coated or idiotype-coated dish. The mechanisms of interaction between the CRI-positive B cells and anti-idiotypic B cells in response to the thymus-independent antigen dextran B1355S are discussed. 相似文献

The cellular mechanisms which are responsible for idiotype perturbation induced by repeated stimulation with either allogeneic mixed lymphocyte culture-generated syngeneic blasts or allogeneically stimulated syngeneic spleen cells were investigated as described in the preceding article. Using the splenic fragment culture system, the precursor frequencies of T and B cells for anti-phosphorylcholine (PC) antibodies and T15 idiotypic antibodies were determined in allogeneically challenged mice. Adoptive transfers of T cells to neonatal BALB/c mice induced suppression of the T15+ anti-PC responses. In addition, the effect of immunization with internal image-bearing anti-idiotopes on the level of anti-PC antibodies and T15 idiotype was determined. Results from this study demonstrated (i) a decrease in the precursor frequency in the PC-specific and idiotype-specific B cell repertoire; (ii) a decrease in the precursor frequency of T helper cells, which recognize idiotypes and anti-idiotypes; (iii) the possibility to transfer T15 suppression to neonatal mice; and (iv) the possibility to restore T15 dominance by anti-idiotypic antibody immunization. These data indicate that both the T and B compartments are involved in the maintenance of suppression induced by repeated exposure to alloantigen-sensitized syngeneic cells. Collectively these findings show that a nonspecific general suppression induced by allohyperimmunization can perturb the T15+ anti-PC response. 相似文献

Mechanism of neonatal idiotype suppression. II. Alterations in the T cell compartment suppress the maturation of B cell precursors 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The cellular mechanism in neonatally suppressed BALB/c mice, which maintains the chronic suppressed state of the TEPC-15 idiotype in the antibody response to phosphorylcholine (PC), was investigated. Cells taken from these suppressed mice cannot transfer suppression to adult BALB/c or affect the in vitro response to PC of adult BALB/c spleen cells. However, spleen cells or T cells from neonatally suppressed mice given to neonatal animals induce chronic suppression of the TEPC-15 idiotype in the anti-PC response. Co-transfer of T cells from neonatally suppressed cells with normal T cells prevented the induction of suppression in neonates. Transfer of T cells from normal or keyhole limpet hemocyanin-primed BALB/c increased the expression of TEPC-15 idiotype in chronically suppressed mice, whereas T cells from neonatally suppressed were ineffective. These findings show that T cells in neonatally suppressed mice can affect the development of immature but not mature cells. The restoration of TEPC-15 expression in neonatally suppressed animals by normal T cells and the failure to induce suppression in neonates by co-transfers of T cells from normal and chronically suppressed mice demonstrate the profound role of an altered T cell compartment in sustaining chronic idiotype suppression. 相似文献

Tumor-specific idiotype vaccines. III. Induction of T helper cells by anti-idiotype and tumor cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

In a previous report, we have demonstrated the induction of tumor-specific immunity by monoclonal anti-idiotype antibodies generated against a monoclonal anti-tumor antibody, 11C1, that also cross-reacts with mouse mammary tumor virus envelope glycoprotein gp52. Also, we showed that whereas one anti-idiotype antibody, 2F10, could induce protective immunity, another anti-idiotype antibody, 3A4, induced nonprotective immunity. Here we demonstrated the existence of T helper cells which recognize anti-idiotypes that exert differential controls on tumor growth. The qualitative nature of idiotype recognizing T cells generated in response to 2F10, 3A4, irradiated tumor, and progressively growing tumor was compared. The reactivity pattern of idiotype recognizing T cells obtained from 2F10 and irradiated tumor immunized mice were similar in nature in the sense that Lyt-2- T cells obtained from these immunized mice responded to both 2F10 and 3A4 as antigen, although T cells from tumor immunized mice responded better to 3A4 antigen. On the other hand, the idiotype-recognizing T cells obtained from 3A4-immunized mice showed a similar reactivity pattern to T cells isolated from mice during the early phase of tumor growth (within day 4 to 5 after the inoculation of 10(4) live tumor cells). Lyt-2- T cells isolated from mice immunized with 3A4 or during the early phase of tumor growth responded only to 3A4 antigen. The inability of Lyt-2- T cells, isolated from 4- to 5-day-old tumor in mice, to cooperate with 2F10-TNP is not due to the absence of 2F10 idiotype recognizing T cells as 2F10 id recognizing T cells are present when examined at the precursor level. These data on the idiotype specificity of T helper cells show a correlation with the presence of anti-tumor immunity. This information will help in the design and application of idiotype vaccine in tumor immunotherapy. 相似文献

Idiotypic determinants of immunoglobulins of malignant B lymphocytes and plasma cells are tumor-specific antigens and have
been used extensively in immunotherapy studies. The mechanisms involved in resistance to tumor challenge following idiotype
vaccination are poorly understood. Although a predominant role has been attributed to anti-idiotype antibodies, both humoral
and cellular immune responses are probably involved. Cell-mediated responses may be particularly effective against tumor cell
variants that do not express the idiotype on the cell surface and are therefore resistant to anti-idiotype antibodies but
continue to produce one of the original immunoglobulin polypeptides that may be processed and presented to T cells. In this
report we describe two experimental models of idiotype vaccination in which antibodies are unlikely to play a role, and hence
tumor immunity is attributed to cell-mediated responses. One model consists of the murine B lymphocyte tumor 38C-13 and its
idiotype-negative variant DB2, which has lost the idiotypic specificity of the parental 38C-13 cell line through the production
of a different light chain but expresses the original heavy chain. Vaccination of mice with the purified IgM of 38C-13 induced
resistance to 38C-13 tumor cells as well as to the variant cells. Although immunized mice produced high levels of anti-idiotype
antibodies that bound to 38C-13 cells, no binding of antibodies to DB2 cells occurred. The finding that idiotype-vaccinated
mice were resistant to idiotype-negative DB2 cells suggested that cellular mechanisms are involved in mediating resistance.
The second model consists of the two plasma cell line JLμs and JLμm, which produce IgM with an identical specificity. Whereas
one of them (JLμs) secretes the IgM, the other one(JLμm) can neither secrete nor deposit it on the cell surface. Immunization
against JLμs IgM followed by tumor challenge resulted in prolonged survival of both JLμs- and JLμm-challenged mice. Although
sera of immunized mice contained high levels of anti-idiotype antibodies, they did not react with the plasmacytoma cells.
Similarly to the results obtained in the 38C-13 experimental model, these results suggest that a non-antibody-mediated mechanism
was involved in the resistance of mice to tumor growth.

Immune response to phosphorylcholine. VII. Functional evidence for three separate B cell subpopulations responding to TI and TD PC-antigens 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
A T-independent PC antigen, the C-polysaccharide, was used to induce a primary response to PC in splenic foci containing precursors taken from normal, unprimed BALB/c mice. The precursor frequency for the TI response was compared with the frequency for a T-dependent PC antigen, PPC-TGG-Hy. Idiotype analysis of the precursors for TD and TI responses indicate that the TD responses are more diverse with respect to clonal dominance of idiotype, TEPC-15, than that of TI responses. If splenic fragments were doubly immunized with both TI and TD antigens, the combined PC-specific precursor frequency was superadditive. TD-antigen-induced responses were found resistant to tolerogen and anti-idiotype suppression, whereas TI responses were extremely sensitive to both manipulations. Since under limiting dilution conditions precursors sort out independently, the superadditive response seen in dual immunized fragments can only be interpreted as evidence for an additional subpopulation of B cells that responds to the combined signals of TD and TI antigens. This postulated third B cell population is also extremely sensitive to tolerogen and anti-idiotype suppression. 相似文献

In this study the tumor-specific immuneresponse induced by irradiated tumor cells (L1210/GZL) and by anti-idiotype antibodies was analyzed. The anti-idiotype antibodies (Ab2) were made against the paratope of a monoclonal antitumor antibody (11C1) that recognizes a tumor-associated antigen which cross-reacts with the mouse mammary tumor virus-encoded envelope glycoprotein 52. Two Ab2, 2F10 and 3A4, induced idiotypes expressed by the monoclonal antitumor antibodies 11C1 and 2B2. Cytotoxic T cells, generated by immunization with irradiated tumor cells, lyse 2F10 and 3A4 hybridoma cells. Furthermore, immunization with Ab2 induces tumor-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes. The frequency of tumor-reactive cytotoxic T lymphocyte was found to be similar in mice immunized with Ab2 or irradiated tumor cells when examined at the precursor level. However, only 2F10 induces protective immunity against the growth of L1210/GZL tumor cells. The depletion of a L3T4+ T cell population from 2F10 immune mice was found to increase the effectiveness of transferred T cells to induce inhibition of tumor growth. The inability of 3A4 to induce antitumor immunity could be correlated with the presence of a population of Lyt2+ regulatory T cells. Collectively, these results demonstrate the existence of a regulatory network controlling the expression of effective tumor immunity. Our results demonstrate that selection of binding site-related Ab2 may not be a sufficient criteria for the development of an idiotype vaccine. A better understanding of the regulatory interactions induced by anti-idiotypes is needed for the design of effective antitumor immunotherapy. 相似文献

In this study two synthetic peptides from the Bordetella pertussis toxin subunit S1 were conjugated to human anti-idiotypic antibodies and used as an immunogen in cancer patients to induce immunity. The aims of the present report are to explain why no carrier or adjuvant effect of the conjugated pertussis peptides could be established regarding induction of responses against the anti-idiotype and to explore the type and quality of induced anti-pertussis immune responses. The lack of carrier and adjuvant effect of the peptides might be related to the fact that the anti-idiotypic antibodies by themselves include helper epitopes and that none of the patients had a detectable T cell response against any of the selected peptides before immunization, which might be a requirement for an adjuvant effect. However, three of four immunized patients mounted a humoral as well as cellular response against the pertussis peptides used. The induced T cell immunity was restricted to one of the two peptides in responding patients. Established T cell lines and MHC blocking studies indicated that the T cell epitopes of the two peptides had a different MHC restriction. The type of T cell response induced seemed to govern the humoral response. The only durable antibody response was accompanied by the presence of a CD4(+) T cell response against the same peptide. Immunization with an anti-idiotype conjugated to synthetic peptides might thus induce both a B and a T cell response against the peptides and the type of induced T cells (CD4 or CD8) governs the quality of the humoral response. Moreover, the possibility of boosting or inducing a response against the antigen from which the peptide sequences were deduced also seemed feasible. 相似文献

We have investigated the ability of B and T lymphocyte subclasses from donor mice that produce high levels of anti-Ar antibody but have been suppressed for one idiotypic component (CRI) to induce and maintain idiotypespecific suppression. Our studies indicate: 1) Memory B cells from such mice can preempt virgin CRI+ B cells present in the host from contributing to the anti-Ar response. 2) T cells can also adoptively transfer idiotypespecific suppression. 3) B and T cells do not act synergistically in this transfer of idiotype-specific suppression. 4) Extremely small numbers of Ly23 cells transfer suppression of idiotype and most probably represent true Ts cells. 5) Ly1 cells from hyperimmune idiotypically suppressed donors can induce idiotype-specific suppression. This latter result most likely reflects the induction of idiotype-specific suppressor cells in the host. 相似文献

Injection of mice with an immunogenic dose of carrier (keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH)) followed by immunization with hapten-carrier conjugate (TNP-KLH) selectively suppresses anti-hapten antibody response. In this study, the cellular basis of this epitopic suppression and also of the suppression induced by a high dose of carrier were analyzed by in vivo depletion of CD4+ or CD8+ T cell subsets by using mAb. The mAb treatments were performed either at the time of carrier priming or at the time of hapten-carrier immunization. The elimination of CD8+ T cells has not modified the anti-carrier antibody response, whether this treatment was performed at the time of KLH-priming or during TNP-KLH immunization. Moreover, the in vivo treatment with the anti-CD8 mAb did not modify the carrier-induced epitopic suppression induced either by a low immunogenic dose of KLH or by a high dose of this Ag. The elimination of CD4+ T cells at the time of KLH immunization has prevented the induction of a memory response to KLH, clearly establishing that CD4+ T cells are essential in memory B cell development to T-dependent Ag. Moreover, this treatment has totally abrogated the epitopic suppression induced either by low or high dosages of KLH. In contrast, the in vivo elimination of CD4+ T cells after carrier immunization did not abolish the secondary anti-carrier antibody response and did not prevent the expression of epitopic suppression. These data indicate that primed CD4+ T cells are required neither for memory B cell expression nor for the expression of suppression. Finally, once induced, the suppression can be evidenced after in vivo depletion of both primed CD4+ and CD8+ T cells. These data support the view that epitopic suppression is induced through the expansion of carrier-specific B cells and resulted from intramolecular antigenic competition between hapten and carrier epitopes. 相似文献

Evidence for a B lymphocyte defect underlying the anti-X anti-erythrocyte autoantibody response of NZB mice. 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
The autoimmune hemolytic anemia of NZB mice is pathogenetically mediated by a genetically prescribed anti-erythrocyte autoantibody response directed to the X erythrocyte autoantigen. The cellular locus of the immunoregulatory defect underlying the anti-X response was explored by adoptively transferring bone marrow cells (BMC) from NZB mice to lethally irradiated histocompatible recipients. Before adoptive transfer, BMC from donor mice were assayed for antigen-binding lymphocytes with receptors for the X autoantigen (X-ABL) by immunocytoadherence assays and for anti-X autoantibody-secreting cells (X-PFC) by plaque-forming cell assays. Twelve weeks after adoptive transfer, splenic lymphocytes from recipient mice were assayed for X-PFC and humoral anti-X autoantibody by Coombs' tests. Transfer of 15 to 30 x 10(6) BMC containing 6 to 12 x 10(3) X-ABL but no X-PFC from 6- to 8-week-old NZB mice to lethally irradiated BALB/c, B10.D2, C57BL/Ks, and DBA/2 mice produced X-PFC in 70% of the recipients. Development of X-PFC was not simply dependent upon available X-ABL since transfer of 15-30 x 10(6) BMC, containing comparable numbers of X-ABL, from BALB/c, B10.D2, C57BL/Ks, or DBA/2 mice to NZB or syngeneic recipients did not produce X-PFC. Transfer of BMC from NZB mice to BALB/c, B10.D2, and DBA/2 mice with weekly administrations of AKR anti-theta antiserum had no effect on the development of X-PFC; Tlymphocyte ablation was evidenced by the absence of theta+ spleen cells. These results suggest that the pathogenetic anti-X response is not genetically prescribed at the level of macrophages, humoral factors, or T cells, but rather appears to be a phenotypic expression of a primary B lymphocyte defect permitting or promoting differentiation of NZB X-ABL. 相似文献

Monoclonal or polyclonal antibodies directed toward determinants on limited structures of bovine serum albumin (BSA) (P505-582) were shown to regulate the entire anti-bovine serum albumin (BSA) immune response when passively administered to mice 24 hr prior to immunization. Regulation was observed as suppression of the humoral IgG immune response toward all BSA determinants except those on fragment P505-582. By Day 21 suppression of humoral response was most pronounced toward determinants present on the carboxy terminal end of the molecule (N 307-582). These observations demonstrate that monoclonal antibodies directed against a single determinant on a protein molecule have the capacity to regulate the immune response to a multiplicity of determinants present on the same protein. The data lend support to concepts of antibody-induced regulation by induction of suppressor cells or idiotype recognition. 相似文献

Neonatal Balb/c mice were suppressed forthe H8/T15 idiotype by injection of homologous anti-H8 (D. S. Strayer, D. A. Rowley, and H. Köhler, et al J. Immunol.114, 722, 1975. Six to eight weeks later groups of these suppressed mice were immunized up to three times with isologous anti-H8 raised in Balb/c. After a rest of 4 weeks each group was challenged with R36a vaccine and bleedings were obtained before and after this challenge. All sera were assayed for total anti-PC and H8 idiotype amounts by solid-phase radioimmunoassay. After two-preimmunizations with isologous anti-H8 no increase of the H8 levels was observed though these mice responded to R36a immunization with an increase of total anti-PC antibodies. After the third preimmunization, however, the H8 idiotype was increased in sera taken before and after challenge with R36a. These findings demonstrate that the state of neonatal idiotype suppression can be broken by immunization with complementary anti-idiotype. 相似文献

Pretreatment of BALB/c mice with antisera to a cross-reactive idiotype (E109IdX) expressed on many anti-bacterial levan (BL) and anti-inulin (Inu) antibodies leads to a prolonged suppression in production of IdX-bearing molecules in response to BL immunization. There is a comparable suppression in numbers of plaque-forming cells secreting IdX-bearing anti-BL and anti-Inu molecules. Furthermore, spleen cells from anti-E109IdX pretreated mice are unable to transfer to irradiated recipients the ability to produce IdX-bearing anti-BL and anti-Inu antibodies. These results indicate that the suppressive effect is at the precursor level and not simply a clearance of antibodies bearing the IdX. Suppression of IdX production can be achieved by pretreating nu/nu BALB/c mice with anti-E109IdX antibodies. Furthermore, spleen cells from pretreated mice do not inhibit the capacity of spleen cells from normal mice transferred to irradiated recipients to produce E109IdX in response to BL. This indicates that the suppression of IdX production in the anti-BL system is T independent and probably represents direct inhibition of precursors by anti-IdX. 相似文献

ICR mice were immunized with sheep red blood cells (sRBC). Both adenosine deaminase (ADA) and purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP) activities in spleen lymphocytes increased faster than the serum antibody titer and reached a peak one week after the immunization. ADA activity increased significantly in T lymphocytes but not in B lymphocytes collected from the spleens of the immunized mice. A statistically significant increase in PNP activity was found in both T and B lymphocytes from the spleens of the immunized mice. Spleen lymphocytes collected from ICR mice which had been immunized with mitomycin C-treated sarcoma 180 (S180) cells one week earlier showed cytotoxic activity against viable S180 cells. Both ADA and PNP activities in spleen lymphocytes of S180-immunized mice increased significantly, and both activities increased in T lymphocytes prepared from spleen of immunized mice. In contrast, an increase was found in PNP activity but not in ADA activity in B lymphocytes. These results suggest that an increase in both ADA and PNP activities may by necessary for the T-cell response in both humoral and cellular immune responses, and that an increase in PNP activity may be necessary for the B-cell response. 相似文献

Immunoregulatory effects of cationized bovine serum albumin (cBSA) and native bovine serum albumin (nBSA) have been investigated. Intravenous administration of nBSA to BDF1 mice substantially suppressed the antibody response to subsequent immunization with either nBSA or cBSA, whereas pretreatment with cBSA by the same route significantly enhanced the responses to both antigens. The functional properties of BSA-specific T and B cells from mice immunized with cBSA or nBSA were examined in reconstitution experiments in which splenic T populations together with B cells were transferred into irradiated syngeneic recipients. Transfer of splenic T cells from mice primed with nBSA caused profound suppression of the response to subsequent immunization with nBSA or cBSA, whereas transfer of either B or T cells from cBSA treated mice produced an enhanced response to both antigens. C57BL/6 mice, which are considered to be low responders to BSA, produced a significant antibody response to BSA when immunized with cBSA. In contrast, immunization with nBSA did not produce measureable amounts of antibody in mice of this strain. Our data clearly demonstrate that cationized BSA exhibits unique immunogenic properties due to alterations in the self-regulation of the immune response. 相似文献

Herein we have analyzed the expression of idiotopes associated with a monoclonal anti-tumor-associated antigen (TAA) antibody in DBA/2 mice which have progressively growing tumors or resist tumor growth. A panel of eight monoclonal antiidiotypic antibodies raised against a monoclonal antibody which reacts with a mouse mammary tumor virus cross-reactive qp52 envelope protein (TAA) of the L1210/GZL lymphoma was used to measure the expression of idiotopes in sera from different treatment groups. Significant correlations between the expression of certain idiotopes and the growth of the tumor or the establishment of anti-tumor immunity are seen. 1) Idiotypes detected by anti-idiotype D11 are high in anti-idiotype immunized progressor or tumor-susceptible mice and low or absent in regressor mice, i.e., the mice immunized with the protective 2F10 anti-idiotype; 2) the 3A4-detected idiotypes are less frequent or absent in irradiated tumor-immunized regressor mice than in untreated mice challenged with live tumor or progressor mice; 3) no difference in the anti-TAA titers is seen in mice in which the tumor growth is inhibited and in mice in which the tumor grows; 4) no difference in 11C1 idiotype + anti-TAA titer was observed between regressor and progressor mice; and 5) mice with normal or accelerated tumor growth have higher titers of idiotypes detected by a polyclonal anti-idiotype. These findings provide evidence for a regulatory idiotype network induced by the growing L1210/GZL tumor or by anti-idiotypic immunization. The titer of anti-TAA antibody does not correlate with the biology of tumor growth, but certain idiotopes correlate with either progressive or regressive tumor behavior. Therefore, the target of the idiotype regulation is likely to be anti-tumor T effector cells. Effective idiotype therapy of tumors must deal with the complexity of idiotype regulation induced by the tumor itself and is unlikely to be successful if anti-idiotypes are used only as internal mimicry of a TAA. 相似文献

Idiotype regulation of the anti-bovine serum albumin response. I. Generation of an idiotype-specific Lyt-1-2+ suppressor T cell 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A monoclonal antibody (3C-7) specific for a determinant localized on the carboxy-terminus of the BSA molecule (P505-582) has been shown to cause suppression of the multispecific BSA antibody response if given i.v. before immunization. The fine binding specificity and the isotype subclass are not responsible for the suppression generated. Administration of 3C-7 i.v. results in the generation of a suppressor T cell that, when transferred into reconstituted irradiated mice, results in a diminished anti-BSA response. Suppression can be eliminated by panning T cells on idiotype (3C-7) coated plates, but not by panning on BSA, polyclonal anti-BSA antibodies, or MOPC 21. The action of the cell is antigen (BSA) specific. Idiotype-binding T cells reconstitute suppression and appear to be Lyt-1-2+. These observations demonstrate that a limited set of monoclonal antibodies directed against a single determinant on a protein molecule have the capacity to regulate the immune response to a multiplicity of determinants present on the same protein. These data support the concept of antibody-induced regulation by the induction of suppressor cells through idiotype recognition. 相似文献

In vivo-induced suppression of T cell proliferation: the relationship between the specificity of induction and control 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
We have previously shown that sc immunization of C57BL/10 (H-2b) mice with the tobacco mosaic virus protein (TMVP) or with its tryptic peptide number 8, representing residues 93-112 of TMVP, induces T cells which proliferate in vitro in response to TMVP and to peptide 8. In contrast, immunization of B10.BR (H-2k) mice either with TMVP or with peptide 8 induces T cells which respond in vitro to the homologous but not the heterologous Ag. In the present article , we report that in the B10.BR (H-2k) strain, ip prepriming with (TMVP) 7 days prior to sc immunization with peptide 8 causes a drastic reduction in the in vitro proliferative response of peptide 8-specific T cells while no such effect is seen in the congenic C57BL/10 (H-2b) strain. This suppression of T cell responsiveness can be transferred with TMVP-primed spleen cells. Moreover, deleting T cells from the transferred spleen cells abrogates the suppressive effect. In both H-2 haplotypes, ip prepriming with peptide 8 causes suppression of the proliferative T cell response induced by subsequent immunization with peptide 8. This prepriming has no effect on the response to TMVP immunization of B10.BR mice but does effect the response of C57BL/10 mice. Using various synthetic peptides to analyze the specificity of the suppression, we have determined that (1) T cells involved in the suppression of the proliferative T cell response to a single peptide determinant do not suppress the proliferative T cell response to other determinants on the protein antigen and (2) these T cells with suppressor function, and proliferating T cells which are ultimately regulated, can exhibit specificity for the same epitope. These studies suggest that there may exist fundamental differences as to how T cells which participate in suppression an proliferating T cells (which include mainly T helper cells) recognize protein antigens. 相似文献

Using computer-aided techniques for predicting molecular structure, we constructed an atomic model of the variable domain of a murine anti-thyroglobulin antibody whose immunodominant idiotypic determinant (Id62) was mapped by site-directed mutagenesis and immunochemical analysis. We previously showed that under experimental conditions this idiotype activates anti-idiotypic B cells and T cells, and modulates the response to thyroglobulin in mice. Because idiotype interactions are considered of physiological importance for immune regulation, we studied this idiotype as a model to understand the relationship between function and structure. To determine the contribution of heavy- and light-chain variable domains to the idiotype structure, we constructed chimeric expression vectors and introduced them into the (non-secreting) P3X63Ag8.653 myeloma cell line. Mutants of the heavy-chain variable domain were obtained by site-directed mutagenesis and transfected into the murine (lambda 1) light-chain producer J558L cell line. The expressed proteins were purified from culture supernatants of transfected cells and characterized. We provide evidence that the third hypervariable loop (D region) of the heavy-chain variable domain is the structural correlate of the idiotypic determinant of this autoantibody and is independent from the nature of the associated light chain. Substitution of residues of the first and second complementarity-determining regions do not affect idiotype expression. The results described here are discussed in relation to our understanding, at a molecular level, of the interaction of idiotopes with B- and T-cell compartments. 相似文献
