We extended our investigations into the genetic requirements and antigen dependence for the induction of polyclonal B lymphocyte proliferation by primed T lymphocytes. By using recombinant inbred mouse strains and antigen-specific T lymphocyte clones that lack alloreactivity, the genetic requirement was mapped to the IA subregion of the MHC. Furthermore, approaches that prevented or limited the accessibility of antigens to the B lymphocyte surface demonstrated that antigen binding onto the B lymphocyte surface was probably not necessary for induction of B lymphocyte proliferation. These experiments suggest strongly that T lymphocyte recognition of B lymphocyte Ia molecules in the absence of sIg cross-linking or in the absence of antigen bound nonspecifically to B lymphocytes can cause cellular activation. Similar T lymphocyte-dependent B lymphocyte activation was seen when Lyb-5- cells from CBA/N mice with the xid defect were cultured. Increases in the number of cells secreting immunoglobulins could be detected in the proliferating B lymphocyte cultures, suggesting that the culture conditions had fulfilled the requirements for B lymphocyte differentiation into antibody-producing cells. Although anti-Ig did not interfere with the B lymphocyte proliferative responses, it did diminish the number of cells secreting immunoglobulins. The implications of these experiments in extending our understanding of the activation pathway of Lyb-5- and Lyb-5+ B lymphocytes are discussed. 相似文献

Bacteria have been found to bind to lymphocyte subpopulations in a highly reproducible manner. Some of these bacteria such as B. melitensis and a strain of E. coli binds to mammalian B. cells. The binding of B. melitensis and other bacteria is due, at least in part, to lectins on lymphocytes interacting with the carbohydrates on the LPS or LTA of the bacteria. These receptors for bacteria give some indications regarding the functional potential of the cells, suggesting the possibility that the receptors identified by bacteria are used in cellular interactions with normal or malignant cells. 相似文献

In previous work we have shown that some bacteria can bind to human lymphocytes and can be used to identify lymphocyte subpopulations in conventionally stained blood smears. These bacteria are of different species or genera, which makes it difficult to study the binding mechanism. Also, the main marker for B cells, Brucella melitensis, is of very small size and highly pathogenic. Here we show that B cells as well as some of the T cell subpopulations can be identified by different mutants obtained from a strain of an Escherichia coli. Two procedures were used to generate mutants. First, E. coli-YS57 (pro-his-trp-) was mutagenized with N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine and the binding to mouse spleen cells was used as a selective pressure. Second, phage-resistant mutants of E. coli-YS57 were obtained and tested for the ability to bind to lymphocytes. Out of 10 strains selected by the former procedure, 5 bound to a significant number of human lymphocytes. All four phage-resistant mutants bound to human lymphocytes. Out of the total of nine mutants that bound to lymphocytes, six bound consistently, i.e., they bound to similar percentages of peripheral blood lymphocytes from different normal donors. One phage-resistant mutant, E. coli USC-106, bound only to B cells. The subpopulations of lymphocytes identified by the mutants were essentially the same as those identified by different species or genera of bacteria. We concluded that E. coli mutants can be obtained that identify human lymphocyte subpopulations and that one of these mutants recognizes B cells; these mutants may be used to study the nature of the receptors for bacteria on lymphocytes, which appear to have a lectin-like nature. 相似文献

A spontaneous BALB/c B lymphocyte leukemia could be stimulated in vitro by the polyclonal B cell activator lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and the conditions for activation were studied. Spleen cells or peripheral blood lymphocytes from tumor-bearing animals responded by increased DNA synthesis and the peak of activation occurred earlier than with normal mouse spleen cells. Tumor cells harvested from the spleen, but not from the peripheral blood, could be induced by LPS to secrete IgM. Direct demonstration that the response was due to tumor cell activation and not that of contaminating normal B lymphocytes was provided by karyotype analysis and by immunoprecipitation, which showed the restriction of light chains on secreted IgM molecules to the lambda isotype. 相似文献

The cutaneous T cell lymphomas (CTCL), typified by mycosis fungoides, and several chronic T cell mediated dermatoses are characterized by the migration of T lymphocytes into the epidermis (epidermotropism). Alternatively, other types of cutaneous inflammation (malignant cutaneous B cell lymphoma, CBCL, or lymphocytoma cutis, non-malignant T or B cell type) do not show evidence of epidermotropism. This suggests that certain T lymphocyte subpopulations are able to interact with and penetrate the epidermal basement membrane. We show here that T lymphocytes derived from patients with CTCL (HUT 78 or HUT 102 cells), adhere to the detergent-insoluble extracellular matrix prepared from cultured basal keratinocytes (HFK ECM). HUT cell adhesion to HFK ECM was inhibitable with monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) directed to the alpha 3 (P1B5) or beta 1 (P4C10) integrin receptors, and could be up- regulated by an activating anti-beta 1 mAb (P4G11). An inhibitory mAb, P3H9-2, raised against keratinocytes identified epiligrin as the ligand for alpha 3 beta 1 positive T cells in HFK ECM. Interestingly, two lymphocyte populations could be clearly distinguished relative to expression of alpha 3 beta 1 by flow cytometry analysis. Lymphokine activated killer cells, alloreactive cytotoxic T cells and T cells derived from patients with CTCL expressed high levels of alpha 3 beta 1 (alpha 3 beta 1high). Non-adherent peripheral blood mononuclear cells, acute T or B lymphocytic leukemias, or non-cutaneous T or B lymphocyte cell lines expressed low levels of alpha 3 beta 1 (alpha 3 beta 1low). Resting PBL or alpha 3 beta 1low T or B cell lines did not adhere to HFK ECM or purified epiligrin. However, adhesion to epiligrin could be up-regulated by mAbs which activate the beta 1 subunit indicating that alpha 3 beta 1 activity is a function of expression and affinity. In skin derived from patients with graft-vs.-host (GVH) disease, experimentally induced delayed hypersensitivity reactions, and CTCL, the infiltrating T cells could be stained with mAbs to alpha 3 or beta 1 and were localized in close proximity to the epiligrin-containing basement membrane. Infiltrating lymphocytes in malignant cutaneous B disease (CBCL) did not express alpha 3 beta 1 by immunohistochemical techniques and did not associate with the epidermal basement membrane. The present findings clearly define a function for alpha 3 beta 1 in T cells and strongly suggest that alpha 3 beta 1 interaction with epiligrin may be involved in the pathogenesis of cutaneous inflammation. 相似文献

Lupus disease is marked by B lymphocyte hyperactivity and the production of Abs to dsDNA. The production of these anti-dsDNA Abs is T lymphocyte dependent. However, it is not clear how CD4+ T lymphocytes provide help for B lymphocytes to produce IgG anti-dsDNA Abs. One possible mechanism is suggested by studies showing that human patients with systemic lupus erythematosus and lupus mice have increased numbers of CD40 ligand (CD40L)+ T and B lymphocytes. The results described in this study reveal that young, clinically healthy lupus-prone New Zealand Black x New Zealand White F1 (BWF1) mice have naive CD4+ T cells with preformed CD40L. These cells contribute to a brisk response to immunization and to the production of anti-dsDNA Abs. In vitro experiments revealed that CD4+ T cells with preformed CD40L could, upon stimulation, provide antiapoptotic signals for B cells but could not induce proliferation or reduce activation threshold. These results suggest that the direct target cells for the effect of T cells with preformed CD40L in lupus may not be B lymphocytes. 相似文献

We have studied the ability of various bacteria to stimulate human lymphocytes to produce leukocyte migration inhibitory factor (LIF). Mononuclear cells from adult and cord blood as well as purified T and B lymphocytes were stimulated with killed bacteria. The culture supernatants were tested for the presence of LIF by the agarose migration method. All nine bacterial strains tested activated unseparated mononuclear cells and B lymphocytes but not T cells to produce LIF. LIF was also present in cord blood cell cultures suggesting that the stimulation of lymphocytes was polyclonal rather than antigenic. Therefore, we propose that one of the physiologic functions of B lymphocyte lymphokines might be to form part of the nonspecific defense mechanisms against microbial invasion. 相似文献

T lymphocytes from neonates proliferated significantly more than peripheral blood T lymphocytes from adults in autologous mixed lymphocyte reactions (AMLR). AMLR-activated cord, as compared to adult T lymphocytes, exerted significantly less nonspecific cytotoxic activity on PHA-stimulated adult mononuclear cells and Epstein-Barr virus-transformed target cells. The impaired generation of cytotoxicity of cord T cells was not corrected by Interleukin-2. Blood T lymphocytes from adults activated in AMLR synthesized a helper factor that supported PWM-induced proliferation and immunoglobulin production in both adult and cord B lymphocytes. In contrast, cord blood T lymphocytes failed to produce the helper factor for B lymphocytes. T cells from AMLR cultures established with neonatal lymphocytes showed suppressor activity, as assessed in PWM-stimulated immunoglobulin synthesis of adult peripheral-blood mononuclear cells, significantly higher than that exhibited by T cells from AMLR cultures performed with lymphocytes from adults. Finally, neonatal B lymphocytes could be activated to the production of IgM but not IgG by either adult AMLR-derived helper factor plus PWM or by Epstein-Barr virus, whereas adult B cells secreted both IgM and IgG under the same type of stimulation. 相似文献

Subpopulations of human peripheral blood lymphocytes were isolated by sequential separation techniques. The stimulating and responding capacity of these cells together with the T-cell population remaining after the removal of other populations was studied in one-way allogeneic mixed lymphocyte culture. Incorporation of [3H]thymidine was used as a measure of response. Monocytes, present in the stimulating or responding cell population, were necessary for lymphocyte response. T cells stimulated responding T-cell populations containing monocytes but not B cells. Stimulation by T cells could be inhibited with DRW antisera. Response was also inhibited by sera detecting DRw antigens on the monocytes of the responding cell population. It is concluded that monocytes play an important functional role in mixed lymphocyte reactions. In addition, it appears that the combination of anti-DRw sera and monocytes influences mixed lymphocyte reactions by an active process in that inhibition of response cannot be explained entirely by blocking DRw determinants. 相似文献

Adherence of bacteria to human lymphocyte subpopulation and the role of monosaccharides in bacterial binding 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

In the present investigation lymphocyte bacterial binding, receptors for bacteria on lymphocytes, and the relationships between bacterial binding and lymphocyte activation were studied. Of the strains used Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis, and Corynebacterium xerosis bound to both purified T and B cells. Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus albus, and Brucella melitensis bound chiefly to B lymphocytes. Monosaccharides and treatment of lymphocytes with lectins, enzymes, or sodium metaperiodate affected bacterial adherence. Thus the lymphocyte receptors for bacteria appeared to contain carbohydrate moieties. There was no clear-cut correlation between lymphocyte binding of bacteria and bacterium-induced leukocyte-inhibitory factor (LIF) synthesis and proliferation. 相似文献

Cell electrophoresis experiments were performed at physiological, ionic strength on Hypaque-Ficoll separated normal human peripheral blood lymphocytes. The initial lymphocyte preparations averaged 72% T cells and 22% B cells as estimated by resetting techniques. A bimodal electrophoretic distribution of fast T cells and slow B cells such as has been repeatedly shown to exist for experimental animals could not be demonstrated. Neither B- nor T-enriched populations showed any correlation between mobility and degree of enrichment. A strong positive correlation was found between the non-rosetting cells and a very slow electrophoretic subpopulation produced during the B enrichment procedure. It was also found that considerable variability in lymphocyte mobilities existed from person to person and even in the same individual sampled over several months; these observations imply that the pooling of electrophoretic data can be misleading. The importance of these findings lies in the growing interest in relating lymphocyte electrophoresis to disease processes and immunological rejection phenomena. 相似文献

The global population is ageing. Elderly people suffer from more severe infections than younger persons. The major reason for the increased susceptibility to infections in the elderly is the deregulated functions of the immune system. Immunosenescence affects both innate and adaptive immune reactions. Among these, quantitative alterations of B lymphocyte subsets determine outcome of infections and vaccination. The overall number of B cells seems to be stable or the decrease is moderate. Reduced input of naive B lymphocytes is compensated by anergic, exhausted memory cells. Concerning B lymphocyte subsets, experimental data obtained in the mouse model and in vivo studies conducted in old-age humans are frequently controversial. Further analysis of human B lymphocyte subpopulations is required that could be regarded as an important biomarker of human life span. 相似文献

Based on studies of sheep, ileal Peyer's patches (IPP) have been regarded as a type of primary lymphoid tissue similar to the bursa of Fabricius in chicken. Because bursectomy results in B cell deficiency, we wondered whether resection of the IPP of piglets would have a similar effect. Comparison of IPP-resected, surgical shams and untreated germ-free piglets, all of which were later colonized with a defined commensal flora, demonstrated that resection of the IPP did not alter the level and phenotype of B and T cells in lymphoid tissues and the blood 10 wk after surgery. Additionally, colonization of IPP caused a shift from the fetal type of lymphocyte distribution to the adult type that is characterized by prevalence of B cells, with many of them representing IgA(+) switched B cells or displaying a more mature CD2(-)CD21(+) and CD2(-)CD21(-) phenotype. Moreover, colonization leads to appearance of effector CD4(+)CD8(+) αβ T helper and CD2(+)CD8(-) γδ T cells. Comparison of germ-free with colonized pigs and experiments utilizing surgical transposition of jejunal Peyer's patch into terminal ileum or construction of isolated ileal loops indicated that lymphocyte development in IPP is dependent on colonization. Although our studies confirmed higher mitotic and apoptotic rates in IPP, they failed to identify any cell populations that resemble developing B lineage cells in the bone marrow. These results indicate that porcine IPP are not required for systemic B cell generation or maintenance, but they are secondary lymphoid tissue that appears important in immune responses to colonizing bacteria. 相似文献

Role of mercaptoethanol and endotoxin in stimulating B lymphocyte colony formation in vitro. 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

Mercaptoethanol is necessary to permit B lymphocyte colony formation in semi-solid agar cultures of cells from normal mouse lymphoid organs. Transfer studies on developing colonies showed that, in part, this was a direct action on B lymphocyte colony cells but evidence was produced that in the presence of mercaptoethanol lymphoid organ cells release a factor promoting colony growth. Endotoxin strongly potentiated B lymphocyte colony formation in vitro by a direct action on colony cells but in the absence of mercaptoethanol did not allow cell survival or proliferation. 相似文献

T lymphocyte colony forming cells (TL-CFC) grown in agar in the presence of PHA were assayed for their capacity to induce or suppress polyclonal PWM dependent B lymphocyte differentiation into plasma cells. This was measured by identifying cells containing intracytoplasmatic immunoglobulins by direct immunofluorescence. To validate the helper and suppressor system used in this paper, the inductive capacity of unfractionated T lymphocytes and their subpopulations bearing Fc-receptors for IgM (TM) and for IgG (TG) was measured. The unfractionated T cells and the TM fraction showed helper activity, whereas the TG cells expressed suppressor activity. The TL-CFC grown in agar in the presence of PHA manifested helper activity at low cell concentration. However, increasing the TL-CFC concentration finally caused suppression of B cell differentiation. The suppressor effect could be abolished by prior irradiation of the TL-CFC before seeding them in agar. These results indicate that T cells grown in agar have the functional capacity of T helper and T suppressor cells to induce and suppress polyclonal PWM dependent B lymphocyte differentiation into plasma cells. 相似文献

The frequency and characteristics of B lymphocyte lineage cells in neonatal murine liver and spleen were studied during the first 10 days after birth. These were distinguished as B cells with surface IgM (slgM), immediate precursors of B cells (pre-B cells) lacking slgM but containing micron-heavy chains of IgM, and earlier precursors that did not synthesize immunoglobulin but could be detected with monoclonal 14.8 antibody. Experiments were also done to relate these to cells capable of clonal proliferation in mitogen-containing semisolid agar cultures and cells that acquire this function only after preculture in liquid medium. Newborn liver contained large numbers of early precursors as well as pre-B cells, and culture studies revealed that a majority of the colony-forming B cells present at that time were slg-. Adherent accessory cells in newborn liver suspensions facilitated the maturation of these into functional B cells in vitro. At most ages, however, numbers of slg+ B cells detected in that tissue were surprisingly low. Possible explanations for this include a rapid exit of newly formed B cells and their immediate precursors from liver and/or a high rate of abortive lg gene rearrangements during the neonatal period. In contrast, whereas the spleen contained early precursors and pre-B cells at birth, these cells steadily declined in number with age as the numbers of slgM+ B cells increased. Adherent cells in liver but not spleen of immunodeficient CBA/N mice suppressed B lymphocyte formation in semisolid or liquid cultures. These observations document population dynamics in B lineage cells during a critical period of development. 相似文献

Development of a cell with dendritic morphology from a precursor of B lymphocyte lineage 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Cells developing dendritic morphology were detected in cultures of highly purified human B cells incubated with 4 beta-phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA). After 72 hr of culture, 2 to 7% of the cells had assumed a dendritic shape provided that contact with a plastic or glass surface also occurred. Dendritic cells developed in cultures of B cells prepared by positively selecting cells that stained with the B cell-specific monoclonal antibody B1 with the fluorescence-activated cell sorter. By contrast, dendritic cells could not be detected in cultures of cells obtained from patients with Bruton's type agammaglobulinemia that lacked B cells. Cells with dendritic morphology were nonspecific esterase negative and not phagocytic. They expressed HLA-DR, DQ, and DP antigens, receptors for interleukin 2 and transferrin, and were stained by B1 and 60.3, an antibody that identifies the beta-chain common to lymphocyte function associated antigen-1, complement receptor 3, and the p150,95 antigen, but not by monoclonal antibodies to monocytes, complement receptors 2 or 3, NK cells, T cells, or Langerhans' cells. Formation of dendritic cells was inhibited by microtubule poisons (vinblastine, colchicine), a microfilament inhibitor (cytochalasin B), and the 60.3 monoclonal antibody, but not by inhibition of DNA synthesis. These data indicate that a subset of B cells is capable of assuming dendritic morphology after stimulation with phorbol esters and attachment to a surface. These dendritic cells exhibit characteristics that are quite similar to the interdigitating cells found in T cell-dependent areas of lymph nodes. 相似文献

Using various cell separation techniques and combinations of these, suspensions were obtained highly enriched or depleted with respect to their content of E-rosette-forming T cells, Ig-bearing B cells, Fc-receptor-bearing cells, or monocytes. These purified populations were tested for their capacity to stimulate allogeneic cells in a mixed lymphocyte reaction (MLR). It could be demonstrated that the Ig-bearing B cells provide the strongest stimulus in the MLR. 相似文献
