Secondary mixed lymphocyte reaction (MLR-II) was studied in A.TH anti A.TL and A.TL anti-A.TH combinations in which stimulation was mainly due toH-2I-region differences. In both cases the MLR-II was specifically inhibited by the responder anti-stimulator Ia serum. The level of inhibition was dependent on the ratio of the amount of immune serum to the number of stimulating cells. The inhibitory activity and Ia antibodies were specifically absorbed and eluted together. The results confirm that the lymphocyte-activating determinants of the MLR-II (1) are carried by the Ia molecules and (2) are identical to the serologically defined Ia determinants. —Anti-Ia sera directed against private and public specificities of the stimulating cell induced a higher level of inhibition than anti-Ia sera directed only against public specificities, indicating that both private and public Ia specificities are involved in restimulation during MLR-II. — These results, in connection with others, suggest that the receptor of the proliferating T cell recognizes the same Ia determinant as the combining site of the Ia-recognizing antibody.Abbreviations used in this paper Lad lymphocyte-activating determinant - MLR mixed lymphocyte reaction - MLR-I, MLR-II primary, secondary MLR - PRC primed responder cells - LCT dye exclusion lymphocytotoxicity microtechnique - RR relative response  相似文献

Human T lymphocytes become glucocorticoid-sensitive upon immune activation   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
A murine model for Transfer Factor (TF) was used in an attempt to identify the nature of its antigen-specific component. TF was prepared from lymph node cells of CBA/Ca/T6 mice sensitized 30 days previously with 2,4-dinitrofluorobenzene (DNFB). To assay for the specific component of TF, 2 × 107 lymphocyte equivalents were injected intravenously into normal syngeneic recipients. Lymph node cells obtained 18–24 hr later gave a positive response in the macrophage migration inhibition (MMI) test in the presence of the soluble analog of DNFB (sodium 2,4-dinitrobenzenesulfonate). The activity of TF was abrogated by absorption with anti-Ia sera including both an Ia alloantiserum (A.TH anti-A.TL) and a xenogeneic rabbit anti-serum which exclusively recognizes carbohydrate-defined Ia antigens. Analysis by paper chromatography using the technique for purification of carbohydrate-defined Ia antigens revealed that MIF production was obtained exclusively with those fractions known to contain Ia antigenic activity. In addition, pretreatment of TF with insoluble conconavalin A (Con A) which has an affinity for carbohydrate-defined Ia antigens resulted in removal of its activity. Taken together these findings pointed to the presence in TF of I-region gene products. Absorption with antibody directed against the dinitrophenyl determinant abolished the capacity of TF to stimulate macrophage inhibition factor production suggesting that it might also contain antigen fragments possibly in association with Ia. No evidence was, however, obtained for H-2 restriction of the action of TF in vivo since it was found to exert an effect in a variety of strain combinations including A.TH and Balb/c which share no known common I-region specificities. Parallel experiments were carried out with the lymphocyte transformation assay since this is known to be a measure of the nonspecific components in TF. Pretreatment with mouse allo-anti-Iak serum directed against both protein-and carbohydrate-defined Ia antigens caused a partial reduction in the proliferative response. In contrast no change in response was observed when the TF was absorbed with insoluble Con A or anti-DNP serum. Furthermore, lymphocyte transformation was obtained with only one of the three paper chromatography fractions positive in the MMI assay as well as two other different fractions. Taken together, these findings permitted a distinction to be made between specific and nonspecific components of TF and indicated that the specificity of TF could be explained in terms of the presence of I-region gene coded products possibly in association with antigen fragments.  相似文献

Evidence is presented which indicates that neuraminidase (NA) treatment of spleen cells both destroys old Ia antigens and reveals new Ia specificities which are not normally expressed by splenocytes. It was found that NA treatment unmasked alien I-Ak-like specificities on A.TH (I s ) spleen cells, and Is-like antigens on A.TL (I k ) spleen cells. These conclusions were based on direct testing of NA-treated targets with a range of alloantisera and on cell-absorption experiments. Furthermore, the cellular distribution of NA-exposed antigens resembled that of convential Ia antigens, the new antigens being expressed on more than 90 percent of splenic B cells and a subpopulation of splenic T cells. However, although some of the antigens exposed by NA on A.TH cells appeared to resemble the Ia. 3 and 15 specificities, additional antigens were involved which did not correlate with any previously described Ia antigens.Sugar inhibition experiments demonstrated the NA-exposed antigens to be carbohydrate in nature, D-galactose being an effective inhibitor in these studies. The proportion of- and-linked D-galactose residues associated with the new antigens depended upon the target cell used and the anti-Ia serum tested. Furthermore, glycolipid extracts from lymphoid cells were shown to contain the NA-exposed antigens.Collectively, these results support the existence of carbohydrate-defined Ia antigens. The simplest interpretation of the findings is that NA clips off terminal sialic acid residues from carbohydrate-defined Ia antigens on the cell surface and exposes subterminal sugars which resemble antigens expressed by otherI-region haplotypes.  相似文献

In an attempt to solve the conflict concerning the correlation between the Lyt-2 phenotype of T cells subsets and the type of the MHC antigens involved in the recognition by T cells, class 2 (I region) antigen-specific CTL were studied for their Lyt phenotypes and the sensitivity to the blocking effects of anti-Lyt-2,3 antibodies. To avoid contamination by CTL to class 1 antigens such as Qa antigens, A.TH anti-A. TL attackers and A.TH anti-A attackers were tested on LPS blasts of the A strain and the A.TL stain, respectively. By using these combinations, it was shown that the majority of I region-specific killers were Thy-1+, Lyt-1+23+. Specific target cell lysis by these cells were, however, found to be far less sensitive to the blocking effects of various monoclonal antibodies to the Lyt-2,3 antigens than conventional class 1-specific CTL. This conclusion was drawn by directly comparing the sensitivity of the I region-specific and K region-specific killing by identical numbers of the same attacker cells (A.TH anti-A). No significant difference was seen between the primary and the hyperimmune CTL. Lyt-2-, Thy-1+ killer cells with I region specificity could be induced when Lyt-2-depleted A.TH responder cells were stimulated in vitro. Such Lyt-2- killer cells were not induced to the H-2K alloantigen.  相似文献

The serological cross-reactivity and the structural homology of murine and human Ia alloantigens were analyzed. Both normal human peripheral blood B lymphocytes and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) cells were shown to be lysed in the presence of complement by both murine anti-Ia and human anti-HLA-DR alloantisera. A mouse A.TH anti-A.TL (anti-I k ) alloantiserum reacted with determinants expressed on all of the 20 normal human B cell populations tested. Only 3 of these 20 B cell populations were lysed with an A.TL anti-A.TH anti-I s alloantiserum. The frequency of cytotoxic cross-reactivity concordant with anti-I k appears to be greater for anti-I-EC k than for anti-I-A k alloreactivity. An immunochemical analysis demonstrated that Iaα-chain andβ-chain polypeptides may be immunoprecipitated from CLL cell lysates by either a mouse anti-I k alloantiserum or various human anti-HLA-DR alloantisera. The Ia molecules detected with the mouse and human antisera are coprecipitable as revealed by one-dimensional gel electrophoresis. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis studies indicated that the human CLL cell Ia antigens analyzed possess considerable molecular heterogeneity. They are structurally more similar, with respect to molecular size and charge, to mouse Ia antigens determined by the murineH-2-linkedI-EC subregion rather than theI-A subregion. The structural, genetic and functional implications of these findings are discussed.  相似文献

When bone marrow and spleen cells of 4 week-old mice are fractionated on a discontinuous BSA gradient, a small fraction of Ia- cells is obtained which can be induced in vitro to express the Ia alloantigen within 2 hr. This is in precise parallel to the prothymocyte induction system of Komuro and Boyse. Ia specificity is ascertained by the use of two reciprocal antisera, A.TH anti-A.TL (anti-Iak) and A.TL anti-A.TH (anti-Ias), which yield the expected reaction pattern on induced bone marrow cells of (B6 X A)F1 (Iak) and SJL/J (Ias) mice. Induction can be effected by a number of agents, such as catecholamines, prostaglandin PGE1, cAMP, bacterial endotoxin, lipid A, ubiquitin, and thymopoietin. The last requires a 100-fold higher concentration for Ia+ induction as compared to prothymocyte induction, thus implying a lower affinity for the B cell receptor than for the thymocyte receptor. Ia- to Ia+ conversion involves cells different from prothymocytes, as indicated by: 1) the specific cytolytic effect of our anti-Ia sera which were shown to be free of activity against thymocytes; 2) an additive cytolytic effect of anti-Ia and anti-Thy-1 sera; and 3) the fact that the Ia inducible cells are sensitive to pretreatment with anti-immunoglobulin and C. This finding that Ia- precursor cells are already Ig+ is of interest for the B cell ontogeny, as it implies that Ig expression precedes Ia expression.  相似文献

The possibility that Ia antigens are unique among H-2 antigens in their relationship to the Fc receptor was investigated in an EA rosette assay. Antibody specific for antigens in various regions of theH-2 complex was incubated with mouse cells, and the ability of the cells to form rosettes with antibody-coated chicken erythrocytes was tested. Antibody raised against the H-2 antigens of Ia-negative tumor cells was highly effective in inhibiting rosette formation. A variety of antisera againstK-, I-, andD-region antigens tested in recombinant mice inhibited EA rosette formation, suggesting that antigens in each of these regions could be detected in rosette inhibition. The F(ab′)2 fragments of all antisera tested also produced specific EA rosette inhibition. Finally, antibody against Ia antigens failed to inhibit bone marrow RFCs, although antibody against H-2K and H-2D antigens did inhibit. Although H-2 serology is in a state of rapid change at present, it must be concluded that in this assay, antibody against antigens in theK andD regions as well as theI region can inhibit EA rosette formation. Inhibition of these rosettes by anti H-2 sera is therefore not due to a special association of Ia antigens with Fc receptors.  相似文献

A.TH (H-2 t2) anti-A.TL (H-2 t1) effectors, obtained after in vitro restimulation of in vivo sensitized cells, react in the CML assay not only withH-2 t1, but also with a number of other targets carrying unrelatedH-2 haplotypes. The broad cross-reactivity can be explained by postulating the presence among the effectors of at least two populations of cells, one reacting with antigens controlled by theI region, and the other directed against antigens controlled by a locus at theD end, outside theH-2 complex. The existence of the two cell populations is also supported by cold-target inhibition data. The locus coding for the D-end CML antigens maps betweenQa-2 andTla. The locus is assigned the symbolH-2T. TheH-2T-locus CML is seen only after in vivo presensitization, but the killing is not K/D-restricted.  相似文献

The role of H-2- and T-region products in determining allogeneic cell rejection was evaluated inH-2 congenic and recombinant mice by transplanting A1ATH and A6ATL leukemia cell lines induced in A.TH and A.TL strains, respectively, by Moloney murine leukemia virus. — InK- orD-region incompatible hosts transplant failure was observed, while inI +T-region incompatible hosts either rejection or prolonged survival was seen. In mice preimmunized with spleen cells fromI- and/orT-region incompatible donors, leukemia cells were rejected by mice immune only to T-region products, and accepted by mice immune only to I-region products. — Cell-mediated cytotoxicity studies confirmed in vivo results. Secondary CTLs specifically directed against I-region products did not lyse the A1ATH and A6ATL cells, and secondary CTLs from A.TH and A.TL mice sensitized against A6ATL and A1ATH cells respectively exerted a lytic action specific for T-region products, while no activity was observed against I determinants. — The data suggest that tumor-transplant rejection may also be governed by histocompatibility antigens encoded in theT region.  相似文献

Antibody inhibition of radiolabelled stimulator membrane vesicle binding by T blasts activated in the mixed lymphocyte reaction (MLR) was used to identify responder-cell determinants involved in the binding phenomenon. Antisera or monoclonal antibodies against Thy-1, Lyt-1, Lyt-2 and Ly-6 antigens were not inhibitory. However, antibodies against heavy-chain V region (VH) determinants strongly inhibited vesicle binding by both primary and longterm MLR blasts. Anti-Ia (both alloantisera and monoclonal reagents) caused inhibition of antigen binding by primary MLR blasts only. T blasts from long-term MLR lines were neither Ia-positive, nor susceptible to blocking of antigen binding with anti-Ia. However, these cells were capable of specifically absorbing soluble syngeneic Ia material, with the concomitant appearance of vesiclebinding inhibition with anti-Ia sera. Acquisition of syngeneic Ia by T blasts was effectively blocked with the anti-VH reagent. Passively bound self-Ia did not interfere with vesicle binding in the absence of anti-Ia. These results strongly suggest the existance of specific self-Ia acceptor sites closely linked to the receptors for stimulator alloantigens on T cells proliferating in MLR. A receptor model based on these findings is briefly discussed.Abbreviations used in this paper B10 C57BL/10 - Con A concanavalin A - FcR Fc receptor - FCS fetal calf serum - H heavy chain - Ia I-region associated antigen - Ig immunoglobulin - LPS lipopolysaccharide - Lyt T-lymphocyte differentiation antigen - MHC major histocompatibility complex - MLR mixed lymphocyte reaction - PM plasma membrane - T thymus derived - Tcr T-cell receptor - V variable region of Ig  相似文献

TheH?2I k region encodes at least two different target antigens for unrestricted T-cell mediated killing. The first is controlled by theI?A region alone and the second depends on a pair of alleles, one located to the left ofI?B (presumably inI?A) and the other to the right ofI?J (presumably inI?E). Hence, effector cells nominally specific for a product of theI?E region do not kill target cells with the sameI?E region as the stimulator unless theI?A region is also shared. Some effectors specific forH?2I k , such as A.TH anti-A.TL and B10.A(4R) anti-B10.A(2R), cross-react with B10.A(3R) and B10.A(5R) target cells. A product of theH?2 b haplotype was shown to complement products of theH?2 d orH?2 k haplotypes in forming this cross-reactive determinant. The results are consistent with recent biochemical data on the component chains of Ia antigens.  相似文献

The specificity of interspecies Ia cross-reactions has been analyzed by testing a panel of monoclonal antibodies (mAb) to mouse I-E and I-A antigens for reactivity with pig Ia antigens. Our earlier studies showed that mouse anti-I-E alloantisera recognized common determinants on Ia antigens of other species, whereas anti-I-A alloantisera showed much more limited cross-reactivity. These results were confirmed using a panel of 17 anti-I-E mAb, 10 of which were cytotoxic to pig cells. 2D gel electrophoretic analyses of precipitates with these mAb of 35S-labeled, NP40 solubilized pig cells revealed a limited set of protein spots that appeared to be identical to the subset of pig Ia antigens precipitated by A.TH anti-A.TL alloantiserum. Because the cross-reactive mouse sera were produced in mouse strains that do not express an I-E molecule (H-2b and H-2s), it was anticipated that the cross-reacting antibodies would be reactive with the monomorphic determinant of the I-E molecule, Ia.7. However, comparison of the reactivity of these mAb with pig cells and mouse cells revealed that the cross-reactivity on pig cells correlated not with Ia.7 but rather with detection of epitope(s) of the I-E molecule associated with inter-strain polymorphism. Anti-I-A cross-reactions were also detected, but were weaker and more limited. These findings may have implications for the evolution of Ia antigens in mammalian species.  相似文献

Several kinds of epithelial cells that express H-2 antigens were studied by immunoferritin labeling with an antiserum reacting only with antigens of theI region of theH-2 complex. Spleen lymphocytes were used to test the labeling system and the effect of the epithelial cell dissociation procedure on Ia antigens. Immunoglobulin-positive B10.BR lymphocytes were labeled with an anti-lak serum (A.TH anti-A.TL serum absorbed with BALB/c and B10.D2 cells), while congenic B10.D2 lymphocytes were unlabeled. The distribution of labeled Ia antigens on living B10.BR lymphocytes was patchy, while on cells fixed in periodate-lysine-paraformaldehyde before labeling, the distribution of label was continuous. Fixation evidently immobilized Ia antigens in the lymphocyte membrane. Trypsin and collagenase, as used in the epithelial cell dissociation procedure, had no discernible effect on the Ia antigens of lymphocytes. The epithelial cells studied included the columnar absorptive cells of the small intestine, uterine lining epithelium, tracheal brush cells, and pancreatic exocrine and duct cells. These cells were fixed before dissociation from their respective tissues. Ia antigens were detected only on the columnar absorptive cells of the small intestine. These cells labeled equally well with an antiserum reacting only with theK -end of theH-2 complex. In both cases, congenic control intestinal cells were unlabeled. Thus, intestinal epithelial cells appear to express theIa, K, and presumablyD regions of theH-2 complex, while the other epithelial cell types express only the K and D antigens. On fixed intestinal epithelial cells, Ia and H-2K antigens were continuously distributed on the lateral and basal cell membranes including the zonula adherens, but the antigens were absent from the apical microvillous membrane and the zonula occludens.  相似文献

Ia antigens have been found on the surface of B lymphocytes, macrophages, epidermal Langerhans cells and on certain transformed cells. Ia antigens have also been detected on the surface of thymocytes but the biosynthesis of these antigens by thymocytes has been difficult to demonstrate. We describe the labeling of murine thymocytes with 35S-methionine and the subsequent analysis of Ia antigens by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Cell elimination experiments demonstrated that the Ia antigens detected were not of B cell origin and were synthesized by a Thy-1-positive thymocyte. Ia antigens from thymocytes were found to be indistinguishable from spleen Ia preparations. Since T cell I region determinants have been postulated to be involved in cellular recognition phenomena, models addressing this recognition must allow for the observation that T and B cell I region molecules detected by antisera such as A. TH anti-A. TL are indistinguishable by two-dimensional gel analysis and are thus unlikely to be involved in the generation of specificity in recognition.  相似文献

Cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CL) can be produced by culturing I region disparate spleen cells as previously reported. More recently, it was shown that these CL can lyse other target cells which shared only the I-A subregion with the stimulator cells, i.e., lysis of these target cells is not H-2K/D restricted. Since I region-mediated lympholysis represents the only strong exception ruling out the obligatory role for H-2K/D products in mediating cytolysis of target cells, it is important to characterize further the target antigen recognized by CL in this system.A.TH anti-A.TL or (A.TL × B10.A) Fl anti-B10.HTT CL were generated in a 4-day primary culture system. The CL, shown to be Thy-1+, are able to kill targets that share only the central region of H-2 with the stimulator cells. These I region-specific CL can also lyse target cells that express a cross-reacting Ia antigen with the stimulator cells. Incompatibilities at IA/IB and IE/IC gave stronger cell-mediated lympholysis than incompatibilities at IA/IB only. Experiments involving the use of cold target competition, inhibition by specific anti-Ia serum, and target cells containing different proportions of Ia+ cells, strongly suggest that the target antigens recognized by the CL are in fact Ia antigens.  相似文献

Requirements for antigen presentation for in vitro stimulation of two subpopulations of Td lymphocytes were investigated. One subset was K,D-region-restricted and required infection or fusion of virus particles with stimulator cells for induction. The other subpopulation was I-region-restricted and required presentation of antigen by adherent cells (presumably macrophages). Presentation of antigen on Ia antigen positive stimulator cells (LPS blasts) failed to lead to stimulation of I-region-restricted T lymphocytes, thus suggesting that phagoctyosis and processing of antigen rather than association of viral antigens via fusion or infection was required for stimulation of these T lymphocytes.  相似文献

Strong, adult (Type II) autologous mixed lymphocyte reactions (AMLR) were observed in cultures of lymphoid cells from both A.TH and A.TL mice. These were suppressed by more than 90% in the continuous presence of 7.5 × 10?8M hydrocortisone-21-sodium succinate. This concentration of hormone had minimal effects on the allogeneic mixed lymphocyte response (MLR) and the mitogenic response to concanavalin A (Con A). Higher concentrations suppressed all three responses. Treatment of autologous cell mixtures for the first 30 hr with 7.5 × 10?8M hydrocortisone resulted in a 78% suppression of the AMLR. This was not associated with a detectable decrease in the quantity of Ia antigens on the stimulator-cell surface, as evaluated by the susceptibility of treated cells to antibody dependent, complement-mediated lysis, using [A.TH × B.10M]F1 anti-A.TL antiserum. Hence, this suppression did not appear to result from an alteration of the antigens putatively associated with stimulation of the AMLR. Separate pretreatment of stimulator and responder cells with 7.5 × 10?8M hydrocortisone followed by culturing with appropriate companion cells had no major effect on the AMLR. Therefore, low-dose hydrocortisone did not appear to selectively eliminate or permanently inactivate subpopulations of responder or stimulator cells. Rather, it appeared to regulate active cellular processes that are initiated by the coculturing of these cells and are required for the early stages of autologous lymphocyte activation.  相似文献

The development of congenic mouse strains identical at the H-2K and H-2D loci but differing by I-region associated (Ia) determinants has permitted an association to be established between Ia determinants and stimulation in mixed lymphocyte culture reactions (MLR). The present experiments were undertaken to establish whether the Ir-coded control of MLR operated at the level of recognition or of stimulation. Reciprocal MLR were established between A.TH and A.TL mouse spleen cells in the presence or absence of anti-Ia sera directed either at determinants of the stimulating or responding cells. The number of T cells responding was assessed by the virus plaque assay. Anti-Ia sera directed against the responding cells were no more inhibitory of the MLR than normal mouse serum. In contrast, anti-Ia sera directed against determinants of the mitomycin-treated stimulating cells markedly inhibited activation of T cells in the MLR.  相似文献

Because surface Ig and Ia antigens cap independently, A.TH anti-A.TL serum combined with the indirect immunfluorescence technique could be used to test defined murine cell populations ofH-2 k haplotype for the presence of Ia antigens. Mitogen induced T- and B-cell derived blast cells, purified by velocity sedimentation at 1g, were tested for the expression of Iak antigens and then used both as stimulator cells and as target cells, in primary and secondary in vitro cytotoxic allograft responses. Fibroblasts, cortisone-resistant thymocytes, and nylon column purified splenic T cells were also included in these tests. Ia antigens were detected on 100% of LPS-induced blast cells, on 20%–30% of ConA-induced blast cells (100%Θ Thy-1 or antigen positive), but only to 5%–10% on PHA-blasts (100% Thy-1 antigen positive). Fibroblasts and nylon column purified splenic T cells were essentially Ia negative. Ia-positive allogeneic stimulator cells induced a far stronger in vitro cytotoxic T-cell response compared to Ia-negative stimulator cells; that is, there was a positive correlation between the expression of Ia antigens on the stimulator cells and the magnitude of cytotoxicity induced. This correlation was restricted to primary allograft responses. Ia antigens could not be detected as a target for killing in the cytotoxic effector phase, using both different target cells as well as the approach of “PHA dependent lysis” for detecting cytotoxic T lymphocytes.  相似文献
