Effect of wheat germ agglutinin on the interleukin pathway of human T lymphocyte activation 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) inhibits proliferation of human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) induced by mitogens and antigens. We investigated the mechanism by which WGA inhibits PHA-induced human lymphocyte proliferation with regard to the interleukin pathway. Our data revealed that although PBMC-proliferation was markedly suppressed by WGA, levels of IL 2 activity in WGA-inhibited cultures were not reduced, but instead were increased, suggesting failure to utilize IL 2. Furthermore, the addition of exogenous IL 2 failed to overcome the suppression. Consistent with these observations, culturing PBMC with PHA plus WGA markedly decreased the number of high-affinity IL 2 receptor per cell, as determined by binding of purified [3H]IL 2, relative to cultures containing PHA alone. WGA immobilized on support beads bound detergent-solubilized IL 2 receptors from PHA-activated T cells, but did not bind human IL 2. However, WGA did not competitively block the binding of [3H]IL 2 to PHA-induced lymphoblasts. These results suggest that WGA inhibits lymphocyte proliferation by binding to and decreasing the number of high-affinity IL 2 receptors displayed on T cells, without impairing IL 2 production. 相似文献

IL-6 preferentially promotes the DNA synthesis of human peripheral blood CD8+, rather than CD4+, lymphocytes in presence of PHA: this effect is observed in serum-free cultures of greater than 99% purified CD8+ lymphocytes. However, IL-6 is able to stimulate DNA synthesis of CD8+ lymphocytes triggered by a mitogenic anti-CD2 mAb, but not by anti-CD3 mAb: these results suggest that IL-6 selectively induces activation of CD8+ lymphocytes through the CD2 rather than the CD3 pathway. Limiting dilution analysis indicates that accessory cells are not required to mediate the action of IL-6 on CD8+ cells. Furthermore, this action is not blocked by addition of mAb neutralizing either IL-2 or IL2R, thus suggesting that IL-6 does not act via IL-2. CD8+ lymphocytes grown in the presence of PHA + IL-6 incorporate (3H)-thymidine to the same extent as those stimulated with PHA + IL-2, but do not increase in number until day 6 of culture. It is hence apparent that the stimulating activity of IL-6 on CD8+ lymphocytes is restricted to the GO----S phase progression, but does not lead to mitosis. IL-6 receptors are expressed on resting CD4+ and CD8+ lymphocytes: their expression is significantly enhanced on both activated CD4+ and CD8+ cells. Scatchard analysis of (125I)-IL-6 binding data showed the presence of high (Kd, 3 x 10(-10) M) and low (Kd, 6 x 10(-8) M) affinity IL6R on both lymphocyte populations. Similarly, mRNA encoding IL6R was detected in both CD4+ and CD8+ lymphocytes. Thus, our studies indicate that IL-6 directly and selectively stimulates the GO----S progression of CD8+ lymphocytes in the presence of mitogen and absence of IL-2: this phenomenon may be of interest for the elucidation of mechanisms activating cytotoxic T lymphocytes. 相似文献

Wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) is low mitogenic or nonmitogenic for human T lymphocytes and inhibits phytohemagglutinin (PHA)-induced mitotic response of the lymphocytes. In this study, the effect of WGA was analyzed in terms of interleukin 2 (IL2) production, expression of IL2 receptor, and IL2 responsiveness of the T lymphocytes. WGA as well as PHA could induce IL2 mRNA and IL2 production and also elevate cytoplasmic free Ca2+ concentration. The IL2 production was reduced by inhibitors of calmodulin and protein kinase C. The IL2 receptor (Tac) expression was induced at about 20% of the lymphocytes by WGA and the expression induced by PHA was not blocked by the addition of WGA. The lymphocytes precultured with WGA for 3 days could proliferate by the addition of IL2 after removal of WGA. The IL2-dependent proliferation of PHA-blasts was blocked by the addition of WGA. These results indicate that WGA inhibits T lymphocyte proliferation by inhibiting the responsiveness of the lymphocytes to IL2 but not by interfering with IL2 production and IL2 receptor expression. 相似文献

T lymphocytes oxidized with the mitogen sodium periodate undergo a proliferative response when cultured in the presence of Ia+ accessory cells. However, the exact role(s) the accessory cells play in such a response has not been clearly defined. We have evaluated the role of Ia and the requirement for interleukin 1 (IL 1) in periodate mitogenicity by using the Ia+ cloned tumor cell lines P388AD (Ia+, IL 1 inducible) and P388NA (Ia+, IL 1 noninducible) as accessory cells. P388AD but not P388NA was able to supply accessory cell function to periodate-treated T cells, suggesting that Ia expression alone was not sufficient to reconstitute a response. Monoclonal anti-I-Ad and anti-I-Ed antibody blocked the accessory cell function of P388AD. In addition, monoclonal antibody GK 1.5, directed against the T cell determinant L3T4a, blocked the P388AD/periodate-treated T cell interaction, confirming that this interaction was restricted by class II molecules. Although Ia expression was required, the response was not major histocompatibility complex (MHC) restricted, because allogeneic as well as syngeneic macrophages were capable of supplying accessory cell function to periodate-treated T cells. Exogenous IL 1 alone was able to trigger periodate-treated T cells, suggesting that Ia was required for the induction of IL 1 synthesis by the accessory cells. Furthermore, purified IL 2, devoid of IL 1 activity, was able to fully reconstitute the proliferative response of accessory cell-depleted oxidized T cells to a level equal to that of whole spleen accessory cells or P388AD. These data suggest that periodate-treated T cells can proliferate with IL 1 alone and that Ia+ accessory cells in periodate-mediated T cell mitogenicity may function in the release of IL 1 and the induction of IL 2 synthesis by the T cells. 相似文献

The murine IL 2 receptor. III. Cellular requirements for the induction of IL 2 receptor expression on T cell subpopulations 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11

The accessory cell requirements for the induction of the IL 2 receptor by the lectin Con A on murine T cell subsets were directly assayed with anti-IL 2 receptor monoclonal antibodies. Substantial levels of IL 2 receptor expression were induced on T lymphocytes of the MHC class I-restricted, suppressor/cytotoxic phenotype (L3T4-, Ly-2+) in the presence and absence of accessory cells. In contrast, high levels of IL 2 receptor expression could only be induced on T cells of the MHC class II-restricted, helper/inducer phenotype (L3T4+, LY-2-) in the presence, but not in the absence, of accessory cells. Ia- cells such as the P388D1 macrophage line or cultured fibroblasts (DAP X 3) were as efficient as the Ia+ B cell hybridoma LB in providing accessory cell function for the L3T4+, Ly-2- subset. PMA, but not purified human IL 1, could substitute for accessory cells for both IL 2 receptor expression and IL 2 secretion by the L3T4+, Ly-2- subset. These data suggest that IL 2 receptor induction on the L3T4+, Ly-2- subset is complex, possibly requiring a T cell-accessory cell interaction, whereas the lectin may directly trigger IL 2 receptor expression on L3T4-, Ly-2+ T cells. 相似文献

U937, a human macrophage-like cell line, spontaneously produces a factor which inhibited blastogenic responses of human blood T lymphocytes stimulated with tuberculin-purified protein derivative (PPD) or phytohemagglutinin (PHA). We investigated the mechanism of suppressor action of the U937 factor. The U937 suppressor factor inhibited interleukin 2 (IL 2) production by human blood T lymphocytes stimulated with PPD or PHA. IL 1 did not overcome the inhibitory action of the U937 factor on PPD-induced IL 2 production by human blood T lymphocytes. The U937 factor also inhibited the production of IL 2 by a human leukemic cell line, JURKAT, stimulated with PHA. The U937 suppressor factor interfered with the expression of Tac antigen (IL 2 receptor) on PPD- or PHA-stimulated blood T lymphocytes. The inhibitory activity of the U937 factor on Tac expression was not affected by the addition of IL 2 or a crude lymphokine-containing T cell supernatant. Tac expression was more sensitive than IL 2 production to inhibition by U937-conditioned medium. The U937 suppressor factor was precipitable by 33 to 67% saturated ammonium sulfate and was inactivated at pH 2 or pH 11. Sephacryl S-200 Gel filtration analysis of U937 culture supernatants revealed that the inhibitory activities for blastogenesis, IL 2 production, and Tac expression co-purified in fractions with an apparent m.w. between 67,000 and 130,000. These data indicate that U937 spontaneously produces a macromolecular suppressive factor with major locus of action on the production of IL 2 and the expression of the IL 2 receptor. 相似文献

Thymidine uptake by PHA-stimulated human lymphocytes is reduced in the presence of 100 microM or greater concentrations of the iron-chelating agent desferoxamine (DF). We assessed expression of IL 2 receptor, 4F2 and Ia antigens, IL 2 production, and cell cycle progression by blood mononuclear cells (MNC) stimulated by PHA in the presence or absence of DF to determine whether the lack of T cell proliferation was a manifestation of inhibition of an earlier activation event. Tac antigen expression on PHA-stimulated MNC was inhibited by DF throughout 8 days of culture, and those cells which were positive had a low density of Tac antigen as compared with controls without DF. Expression of other activation antigens, 4F2 and Ia, was not impaired by DF. The supernatants of the DF-containing and control cultures contained equivalent IL 2 activity, as measured on the HT-2 cell line. Cell cycle analysis of these cultures shows that the addition of DF at the beginning of culture blocks most cells from undergoing G0 to G1 transition, whereas later addition of DF arrests the progression of the T cell blasts through the cell cycle. Separation of cells cultured with PHA and DF into Tac+ and Tac- subsets showed that progression from G0 to G1 was restricted to the former subset. These results suggest that interference with IL 2 receptor expression might contribute to the block in mitogen-induced proliferation caused by DF. 相似文献

Characterization of T lymphocyte subpopulations responsible for deficient interleukin 2 activity in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12

Normal immunoregulation depends on a complex set of cellular interactions in which interleukin 2 (IL 2) appears to play an important role. We have examined the IL 2 activity in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). IL 2 production by phytohemagglutinin (PHA)-stimulated T cells for 48 hr was measured by the ability of their culture fluid to induce proliferation of normal human T cells that had been activated for more than 20 days by PHA plus IL 2. To measure IL 2 responsiveness, T cells were blasted by preincubation with concanavalin A for 96 hr and stimulated for another 72 hr with lectin-free standard IL 2. SLE T cells failed to produce normal levels of IL 2 in vitro compared with normal control T cells. This failure resided in both OKT4+ and OKT8+ cells. Furthermore, the abnormality was due neither to soluble inhibitory factors produced by SLE T cells nor to active suppressor cells that might be induced by PHA-stimulation. Responsiveness to IL 2 of T cells from some, but not all, SLE patients was decreased significantly from that of normal controls. Absorption studies as well as studies with anti-Tac antibody demonstrated that the impaired responsiveness of T cells in the specific patients with SLE was due to inadequate expression of IL 2 receptors on the T cells upon activation. This defect was exclusively ascribed to the dysfunction of OKT4+, but not OKT8+, cells. The above defects in production of and responsiveness to IL 2 observed in patients with SLE were present at all times regardless of the disease activity or of corticosteroid therapy. Thus, the deficient IL 2 activity may be intrinsic to SLE lymphocytes and may contribute to impaired immunoregulation and to the development of SLE. 相似文献

To investigate the ability of interleukin 2 (IL 2) alone to induce proliferation of resting human lymphocytes, we stimulated human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) with an immunopurified preparation of IL 2 or with phytohemagglutinin (PHA). Proliferation and the percent of cells expressing IL 2 receptors were assessed over 6 days of culture. Regardless of the stimulus, the percent of cells bearing an IL 2 receptor paralleled the amount of proliferation, and proliferation was inhibited by an anti-IL 2 receptor monoclonal antibody (anti-Tac). When stimulated by IL 2 alone, less than 8% of PBMC expressed an IL 2 receptor after 24 hr of culture. Stimulation by IL 2 caused both proliferation and IL 2 receptor expression to increase over the entire culture period (routinely to 75,000 cpm and 50% respectively). When colchicine was added (to inhibit cell division), the percent of cells bearing an IL 2 receptor did not increase. IL 2 alone also induced proliferation of PBMC depleted of accessory cells, with the same kinetics but reduced peak response. Both accessory cells and supernatants that showed IL 1 but not IL 2 activity augmented this proliferation 50 to 100%. In contrast to the effect of IL 2, 25 to 50% of PBMC stimulated by PHA expressed an IL 2 receptor after 24 hr of culture. PHA-induced proliferation and IL 2 receptor expression peaked early in the culture period (routinely to 100,000 cpm and 50% respectively within 3 days), and colchicine did not inhibit the early induction of IL 2 receptors on PBMC. Our findings indicate that unlike PHA, IL 2 induces proliferation of PBMC (or PBMC depleted of accessory cells) by expanding the small percentage of cells in a resting population that already express IL 2 receptors. IL 2 does not appear to induce IL 2 receptors on cells previously lacking this molecule. We also find that IL 1 can enhance the response to IL 2 alone. 相似文献

Regulatory interactions governing the proliferation of T cell subsets stimulated with pokeweed mitogen 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Serial phenotyping of human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) cultured with pokeweed mitogen (PWM) demonstrated an excess of T8+ cells after stimulation. Preferential expansion of the T8+ cell compartment was a result of T8+ cell blast transformation while T4+ cells generated fewer blasts and tended to remain as small resting cells. When the proliferative behavior of T cell subsets in PWM-stimulated PBMC with physiologic proportions of T4+ and T8+ cells was compared with that of cultures depleted of T4+ or T8+ cells, two levels of regulation of proliferation were found: without T4+ cell help, T8+ cells were unable to divide; however, in the presence of T4+ cells, PWM-stimulated T8+ cells became potent feedback inhibitors of T4+ cell proliferation. The mechanism of suppression by PWM-activated T8+ cells of T4+ cell proliferation, not only to PWM, but also to tetanus toxoid, was pursued by measuring decreased interleukin 2 (IL2) recovery from cultures containing suppressors. Although passive absorption of IL2 by PWM-activated cells could contribute to the suppression of fresh proliferative responses, as shown directly with isolated T4+ cells induced by PWM to express IL2 receptors, a much more profound suppression was mediated by PWM-activated T8+ cells. The regulation of proliferative responses of helper and suppressor T cell subsets may determine the magnitude of their subsequent interactions and thus control the ultimate outcome of in vivo physiologic and pathologic immune responses. 相似文献

Several clones obtained from the bone marrow of a BALB/c mouse were found to contain the heavy and light chain Ig genes in the germline configuration, to express Ly1 and to carry the B cell lineage markers B-220, Lyb8 and BP-1; these clones are Pgp-1+, LFA-1+, J11d+, Mac-1+ and Thy1-, Lyt2-, L3T4-, GM1.2- and Ia-. Three clones analyzed in detail (Lyd9, LyH7 and Lyb9) have receptors for interleukin (IL) 2 and IL3 as assessed with the 7D4 and CC11 monoclonal antibodies respectively. They grow in rIL3 but not in rIL2 or rIL1; both rIL4 and rIL5 also promote their proliferation, albeit to a much lesser extent than rIL3. None of the interleukins tested alone or in various combinations promoted the clones to differentiate in vitro along the B cell pathway. Treatment with 5-Azacytidine (5-Aza) induced cell surface Ia expression but not rearrangement or expression of Ig genes. However, 5-Aza-treated Lyd9, LyH7 and Lyb9 cells co-cultured with X-ray irradiated accessory cells and LPS gave rise to Ly1+, IgM+ B lymphocytes (range 14-51%) including mu + kappa + (78-93%), and mu + lambda + (9-25%) B lymphocytes. In vivo, the Lyd9, LyH7 and Lyb9 clones gave rise to IgM+ B lymphocytes (8.5-17%) including mu + kappa +, and mu + lambda +, but not to Lyt2+ or L3T4+ T lymphocytes after 4-6 weeks of transfer into Scid mice. Our results indicate that Ly1+ IgM+ cells comprise a subpopulation of B lymphocytes that is derived from IL3-responsive Ly1+ PRO-B lymphocytes. 相似文献

Monoclonal antibody OKT11A inhibits and recombinant interleukin 2 (IL 2) augments expression of IL 2 receptors at a pretranslational level 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

The expression of receptors for interleukin 2 (IL 2) represents a critical event regulating the growth of normal T lymphocytes. We investigated the effects of the inhibitory monoclonal antibody OKT11A (anti-sheep erythrocyte receptor) and of purified recombinant IL 2 (rIL 2) on the expression of IL 2 receptors by activated T cells at both the protein and the mRNA levels. Adding OKT11A antibody (0.5 microgram/ml) to phytohemagglutinin (PHA)-stimulated cultures of human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) markedly suppressed cellular proliferation (assessed by [3H]thymidine incorporation) and IL 2 receptor expression (determined by immunofluorescence assay by using the anti-IL 2-receptor antibody, anti-Tac). Northern blot analysis performed with the use of a cDNA probe specific for the human IL 2 receptor gene demonstrated that OKT11A antibody also decreased the accumulation of IL 2 receptor mRNA induced by PHA in PBMC. Purified rIL 2 (10 U/ml) alone had little effect on the expression of IL 2 receptors in unstimulated PBMC cultures. In combination with PHA or with PHA plus OKT11A, however, rIL 2 augmented both the expression of IL 2 receptor protein on PBMC and the accumulation of IL 2 receptor mRNA in PBMC. Adding anti-Tac antibody to PBMC cultures to block the interaction of IL 2 with its receptor diminished the accumulation of IL 2 receptor mRNA induced by PHA. Taken together, these data demonstrate that OKT11A antibody inhibits and IL 2 augments expression of IL 2 receptors on PHA-stimulated T cells, at least in part, at a pretranslational level. 相似文献

The lentiviruses of sheep, goats, and horses cause chronic multiorgan disease in which macrophages are highly permissive for viral replication. Monocytes, which mature into macrophages, are thought to be latently infected with lentivirus, but the extent to which other leukocytes are infected is unknown. Dendritic cells have not been studied separately from monocytes and T-cell subsets have not been examined in previous attempts to identify infected cells in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC). We found no evidence of T-cell tropism using an animal-passaged, pathogenic ovine lentivirus. Phytohemagglutinin-stimulated infectious PBMC produced 20-fold less virus than differentiated macrophages, and cocultivation of infectious PBMC with fresh, uninfected phytohemagglutinin blasts did not facilitate virus replication. Furthermore, central lymph cells, the best in vivo source of purified lymphocytes, lacked virus and did not yield virus upon in vitro cultivation. In contrast, cultivated blood-derived macrophages were highly permissive for viral replication. To identify the latently infected PBMC, PBMC from infected sheep were selectively depleted of monocytes and B cells by passage over nylon wool and then of nonadherent cells bearing CD4, CD8, T19, gamma delta T-cell receptor, CD45RA, or major histocompatibility complex class II antigens by panning. Removal of adherent monocytes and B cells or of adherent cells and the three major T-cell subsets (CD4+, CD8+, T19+) did not decrease the infectivity of PBMC. The richest sources of infected cells in fresh PBMC were CD45RA+ and major histocompatibility complex class II+ nonadherent cells, which are three characteristics of dendritic cells. Thus, the dendritic cell, and not the monocyte or the CD4+ cell, is probably the predominant infected cell type in blood. 相似文献

The recognition specificity of a murine helper T cell for hemagglutinin of influenza virus A/PR/8/34 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Human large granular lymphocytes (LGL), which are known to be responsible for natural killer (NK) cell activity, also produced a variety of lymphokines including interleukin 2 (IL 2), colony stimulating factor (CSF), and interferon (IFN) in response to phytohemagglutinin (PHA) or concanavalin A (Con A). Human peripheral blood LGL, which were purified by removal of monocytes adhering to plastic flasks and nylon columns, followed by separation on a discontinuous Percoll gradient, and additional treatment with anti-OKT3 and Leu-M1 plus complement, were more potent producers of these lymphokines than unseparated mononuclear cells (MNC), nylon column-eluted cells, or purified T lymphocytes. Moreover, IL 2 production by LGL could be further distinguished in that it was not enhanced by the addition of macrophages or macrophage-derived factor, i.e., IL 1, whereas addition of macrophages did potentiate IL 2 production by T lymphocytes. Further analysis of cells in the LGL population using various monoclonal antibodies revealed that removal of cells with OKT11 or AF-10, a monoclonal antibody against human HLA-DR antigen, decreased IL 2 production, whereas removal of OKT8+, OKM1+, Leu-M1+, or Leu-7+ cells led to enhanced IL 2 production. The LGL population is therefore heterogeneous and includes at least three functionally and phenotypically distinct subsets. An atypical T cell subset (OKT3-, Leu-1-, OKT11+) rather than the myeloid subset of LGL (Leu-M1+ or OKMI+) was the source of LGL-derived IL 2, whereas the latter subset and/or another subset of OKT8+ cells appear to regulate this IL 2 production. In addition to performing NK activity, LGL on a per cell basis seem to be more effective than T lymphocytes in producing lymphokines, namely, IL2, CSF, and IFN. 相似文献

The action of glucocorticoids on the proliferative response of human lymphocytes stimulated in vitro by MPPS has been investigated. The effect of Dex was dependent on the time of steroid addition to the cultures. Dex added at the beginning of the culture period inhibited, cell proliferation and IL 1/IL 2 synthesis, although not completely. However, a delayed addition of 24 to 48 hr resulted in an enhancing effect on cell proliferative responses that was maximal at day 4. The effect of Dex on T suppressor cell activity was then investigated. Dex added 1 day before the appearance of suppressor cells resulted in a marked decrease or disappearance of the suppressive activity. Moreover, primed T lymphocytes treated with Dex in the presence of exogenous IL 2 enhanced the proliferative responses of fresh autologous PBMC stimulated by MPPS. Taken together, our data suggest that glucocorticoids inhibit the differentiation of T suppressor cells and that IL 2 is unable to reverse this inhibitory effect. 相似文献

Agar human T cell colony growth promoted by a B + null cell-derived lymphokine distinct from IL 2 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Human T cell agar colonies can be grown under PHA stimulation from either mature T cells or their E rosette-negative (E-), OKT3- peripheral blood and bone marrow precursors. Colonies comprise a majority of mature E+, OKT3+ cells and a minor (5 to 10%) population of immature E-, T3-, T8-, T4-, DR+, T10+, RFB1+ cells, which upon replating in subculture, can generate secondary colonies of OKT3+, E+, OKT4+, OKT8+ cells. Secondary colony formation can serve as a test for growth requirement of colony precursors, because it depends on the presence of both PHA and a colony-promoting activity (CPA) recovered in PHA-stimulated B + null or T + adherent cell supernatants. CPA production by B + null cells was not affected by their treatment with OKT3 or D66 (T11-like) monoclonal antibodies (MAB) + complement but was abolished by an anti-HLA-DR MAB + complement. However, B cells sorted by panning with the same anti-HLA-DR MAB did not release CPA, demonstrating the requirement of both B cells and null cells for CPA production. Neither IL 2 nor IL 1 could account for B + null cell-derived CPA. 相似文献

The cellular lesion responsible for exaggerated IgE synthesis accompanying allergic breakthrough 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Appropriate levels of IgE are maintained by a cellular and molecular network composed of (1) a suppressive, Ly-1+, CD4+ T cell-dependent arm that is activated by inappropriate high levels of IgE and (2) an enhancing, CD8+ T cell-dependent arm that controls this suppression in a feedback regulatory manner. Ly-1+ T cells also function to counterbalance (inhibit) the activity of these latter CD8+ T cells. It has been previously shown that Ly-1+ T cells can reverse low-dose irradiation-induced enhancement of IgE antibody responses (i.e., allergic breakthrough). We have analyzed lymphocytes isolated from mice subjected to low-dose irradiation to determine which component of this network is defective in such animals. Stimulation of normal lymphocytes with IgE in vitro resulted in the release of lymphokines that suppress IgE antibody responses. In contrast, similar stimulation of lymphocytes from irradiated mice did not elicit secretion of such suppressive lymphokines, unless the cells were depleted of CD8+ T cells or reconstituted with normal Ly-1+ T cells. Because Ly-1+ T cells of irradiated mice could not reconstitute the response, we conclude that this functional subset of CD4+ T cells, which normally controls CD8+ T cell activity in this network, is defective in animals that exhibit irradiation-induced allergic breakthrough. 相似文献

Human peripheral blood T cells were purified by a four-step procedure which included depletion of plastic-adherent cells, rosetting with sheep red blood cells, nylon wool passage, and treatment with mouse monoclonal antibodies to human Ia antigens plus complement. The purified T cells completely failed to proliferate to phytohemagglutinin (PHA). Bacterially derived recombinant human interleukin 2 (IL 2) reconstituted the proliferative response of resting T cells to PHA. The optimal concentration of IL 2 required was 100 to 200 U/ml. IL 2 alone caused no T cell proliferation. Both PHA and IL 2 needed to be present together for the proliferation of T cells to occur. Incubation of T cells with either PHA or IL 2 alone for up to 18 hr, followed by washing, then by the addition of the reciprocal reagent, resulted in no T cell proliferation. Expression of IL 2 receptors and of Ia antigens, as assessed by indirect immunofluorescent staining, revealed that both PHA and IL 2 needed to be present for Tac and Ia antigen expression by T cells. T cells incubated with PHA and IL 2 for 18 to 42 hr acquired responsiveness to IL 2. These T cells remained absolutely dependent on IL 2 for proliferation to occur. In contrast to T cells stimulated with PHA in the presence of monocytes, T cells stimulated with PHA and IL 2 released no detectable IL 2. The failure of IL 2 secretion was not caused by down-regulation of IL 2 production by IL 2 itself, because the addition of IL 2 to cultures of T cells stimulated with PHA in the presence of monocytes did not interfere with IL 2 production. These results indicate that IL 2 is a sufficient signal to induce the expression of its receptor in PHA-stimulated T cells and subsequent proliferation but is not sufficient to cause endogenous IL 2 release. 相似文献

The response of highly enriched populations of human T8+ lymphocytes to the oxidative mitogenic enzymes neuraminidase (NA) and galactose oxidase (GO) was enhanced by NAGO-primed T4+ lymphocytes. No similar enhancement occurred when the cells were primed with phytohemagglutinin (PHA). In the absence of subclass contamination (1%), the T8+ and T4+ cells responded equally to NAGO by the criterion of DNA replication. The addition of a small number, 2-10%, of NAGO-T4+ cells to the NAGO-T8+ cells enhanced DNA synthesis by as much as 8.5-fold. Augmentation of the cellular response did not occur unless the T4+ cells were activated by NAGO. The converse situation, 2-10% of NAGO-T8+ cells in a primarily NAGO-T4+ cell population, did not increase the DNA synthetic response of the NAGO-T4+ cells. The NAGO-T4+ cells did not augment the early event of increased phosphatidylinositol metabolism or the midcycle event of induction of receptors for interleukin 2 (IL2) and transferrin. The NAGO-T4+ cells therefore increased the probability that fully activated T8+ lymphocytes crossed the G1/S boundary. The basis for this effect was not an enhanced responsiveness of the NAGO-T8+ cells to IL2 or to other soluble growth mediators in medium conditioned by NAGO-activated lymphocytes. The results of this investigation thus implicate a control point in the NAGO-T8+ lymphocyte cell cycle that is positively modulated by the NAGO-T4+ cells themselves or by a product of their activation. 相似文献

Acquisition of suppressive activity and natural killer-like cytotoxicity by human alloproliferative "helper" T cell clones 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
To investigate potential functional changes in alloantigen-specific proliferative CD3+, CD4+, CD8-, Leu-8-, interleukin 2 (IL 2)-secreting noncytotoxic in vitro primed human helper T cells, a set of 12 clones was studied sequentially throughout their finite life spans. Clones surviving to greater than 30 population doublings (PD) retained their requirements for exogenous IL 2 and filler cells for continued growth, but lost the ability to proliferate and to secrete IL 2 when specifically restimulated. This was not accompanied by changed surface marker phenotypes or acquisition of abnormal karyotypes, but was accompanied by the acquisition of MHC-unrestricted potent radioresistant suppressive activity for lympho-proliferative responses. Suppression was not caused by absorption of IL 2, secretion of interferons, de novo mycoplasma contamination, or cytotoxic activity. At least two suppressive mechanisms were demonstrated: 1) the induction of suppressor effectors in naive lymphocyte populations, which required cell to cell contact and could be inhibited by certain monoclonal antibodies against MHC class II determinants; and 2) a direct effect on responding lymphocytes, shown by suppressive activity on cloned PLT-active reagents. Moreover, the majority (75%) of originally allo-proliferative clones also acquired a previously absent cytotoxicity against natural killer (NK) cell-susceptible, but not NK-resistant, target cell lines. This modulation of function from specific alloproliferative, IL 2-secreting nonsuppressive status to strong nonspecific suppressive and NK-like cytotoxic status represents a novel functional activity of human T helper lymphocytes under conditions of clonal propagation. 相似文献
