To analyze the developmental and functional interrelationship between cortical and medullary thymocytes, the peanut agglutinin-(PNA) binding capacity was used to separate thymocytes into PNA+ (cortical) and PNA- (medullary) thymocytes. Virtually, all positively selected PNA+ thymocytes (90% of the overall thymocyte population) expressed the Lyt 123 phenotype, whereas 90% of negatively selected PNA- thymocytes expressed Lyt 1 alloantigens, about 10% being Lyt 123 thymocytes. Provided, the requirement of Lyt 1 T helper cells was bypassed by Interleukin 2, a nonspecific mediator of T help, PNA+ Lyt 123 thymocytes mounted cytotoxic T cell responses comparable in magnitude to that of peripheral T cells. Their repertoire included antigenic disparities coded for by the complete MHC complex, H-2K, I-A, H-2D, mutational events at H-2K, as well as antigenic disparities expressed on TNP conjugated- and Sendai virus-infected syngeneic cells. PNA- Lyt 123 thymocytes represent a highly reactive pool of primary cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) precursors for both alloreactive and H-2-restricted CTL responses. Since PNA- thymocytes include also Lyt 1 T helper cells, PNA- responder thymocytes are able to mount autonomously (CTL responses. Our data are first to provide direct evidence that Lyt 123 cells represent a common source of alloreactive and H-2-restricted CTL precursors in unprimed lymphocyte populations. Moreover, the apparent immunocompetence of cortical PNA+ thymocytes is now explained by their lack of T helper cells. 相似文献

Using serial antigenic challenge as the method of selection and stimulation, continuous lines of cytotoxic T-lymphocytes (CTL) directed against TNBS-modified syngeneic spleen cells (TNP-self) have been generated. Spleen cells from C3H/HeJ (H-2k) mice were primed in vitro with autologous spleen cells modified with TNBS, and subsequently cloned by limiting dilution and in soft agar in the presence of IL2. These CTL clones grew continuously in medium supplemented with IL2 and in the presence of antigen. They are antigen specific and H-2 restricted in their target cell recognition. They all express Thyl and Lyt2 surface markers. None of the clones exhibit natural killer (NK) cell activity. All CTL clones tested so far are restricted in their target cell recognition to H-2Kk-TNP and none were found to be restricted to H-2Dk-TNP. These findings demonstrate at the clonal level the H-2K/D restriction of TNP-self specific CTL. These clones provide tools that may facilitate an understanding of the development and regulation of antigen specific CTL. They may also serve as models useful towards an understanding of the mechanism of lysis by CTL. 相似文献

Induction and activity of class II-restricted, Lyt-2+ cytolytic T lymphocytes specific for the influenza H5 hemagglutinin 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
In influenza A virus infections, CTL are a significant component of the host immune response which limits viral replication and promotes recovery. To examine the CTL response to the influenza virus A/Ty/Ont/7732/66[H5N9], particularly the H5 hemagglutinin, a long term CTL line was generated from spleen cells of A/Ty/Ont-immune Balb/c [H-2d] mice secondarily stimulated in vitro with A/Ty/Cal/Hurst-2/71[H5N2]. This CTL line was highly specific for influenza viruses of the H5 subtype. From this line, clones were isolated by limiting dilution and shown to be H5 hemagglutinin-specific based on recognition of an H5 vaccinia virus recombinant (H5 Vac). The clones exhibited the classical CTL surface phenotype Lyt-1-2+L3T4-; however, unlike the typically class I-restricted Lyt-2+ CTL, they were restricted in antigen recognition by class II (I-E) MHC molecules based on target cell recognition and antibody blocking of cytotoxicity. The clones recognized both infectious and non-infectious A/Ty/Ont presented by class II+ target cells. In adoptive transfer studies to assess the biologic role of the clones in vivo, these class II-restricted clones did not appear to alter mortality. However, these cells significantly reduced both morbidity and virus titers in the lungs of infected animals at 5 days post-infection. Thus, in the immune response to this virus, class II-restricted Lyt-2+ CTL specific for the H5 hemagglutinin were readily generated and their biologic role in vivo involved viral clearance. 相似文献

Cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) generated in C57BL/6 (H-2b) mice in response to infection with the serologically distinct herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) or type 2 (HSV-2) were cross-reactive against target cells infected with either serotype. However, HSV-2-infected cells were shown to be much less susceptible to CTL-mediated lysis, and analysis through the use of HSV-1 X HSV-2 intertypic recombinants mapped the reduced susceptibility to a region contained within 0.82 to 1.00 map units of the HSV-2 genome. The study reported here was undertaken to determine the possible reasons for the reduced susceptibility of HSV-2-infected cells to lysis by CTL. Competition for the specific lysis of labeled HSV-1-infected cells by either HSV-1- or HSV-2-infected, unlabeled inhibitor cells and frequency analysis of the CTL precursor able to recognize HSV-1- and HSV-2-infected cells suggested that the reduced susceptibility of HSV-2-infected cells to lysis could be explained, at least in part, by reduced levels of target cell recognition. A determination of the surface expression of the critical elements involved in target cell recognition by CTL following infection with HSV-1 or HSV-2 revealed that all the major HSV-specific glycoprotein species were expressed. Infection with both HSV-1 and HSV-2 caused a reduction in the expression of the class I H-2 antigens. However, this reduction was much greater following infection with HSV-2. This suggested that one important factor contributing to reduced lysis of HSV-2-infected cells may be the altered or reduced expression of the class I H-2 self-antigens. 相似文献

Specificity of in vitro cytotoxic T cell clones directed against vesicular stomatitis virus 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

Cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) generated in mice against a particular serotype of vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) were previously shown to cross-reactively lyse syngeneic target cells infected with serologically distinct types of VSV. To analyze the antigenic basis of this T cell cross-reactivity, we generated CTL against VSV-Indiana (VSV-Ind) and established them by limiting dilution as cloned in vitro cell lines. The cells continuously proliferate in medium containing concanavalin A-induced T cell growth factors. All of the cells are Thy-1.2+ and Lyt-2.2+. Lysis by these cells is H-2Dd-restricted, no natural killer cell activity is detectable, and all the clones cross-reactively lyse target cells infected with either VSV-Ind or VSV-New Jersey (VSV-NJ). In addition, no specific blocking of primary, secondary, or cloned anti-VSV CTL was achieved with the use of several monoclonal antibodies specific for the glycoprotein of VSV and capable of neutralizing either VSV-Ind or VSV-NJ. These results suggest that VSV serotype-specific neutralizing antibodies may recognize immunodominant determinants of VSV glycoprotein that are distinct from those recognized by the majority of VSV-specific CTL. 相似文献

The role of virus-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) in Theiler's murine encephalomyelitis virus (TMEV)-induced demyelinating disease, a viral model for multiple sclerosis, is not yet clear. To investigate the specificity and function of CTL generated in response to TMEV infection, we generated a panel of overlapping 20-mer peptides encompassing the entire capsid and leader protein region of the BeAn strain of TMEV. Binding of these peptides to H-2K(b) and H-2D(b) class I molecules of resistant mice was assessed using RMA-S cells. Several peptides displayed significant binding to H-2K(b), H-2D(b), or both. However, infiltrating cytotoxic T cells in the central nervous system of virus-infected mice preferentially lysed target cells pulsed with VP2(111-130/121-140) or VP2(121-130), a previously defined CTL epitope shared by the DA strain of TMEV and other closely related cardioviruses. In addition, at a high effector-to-target cell ratio, two additional peptides (VP2(161-180) and VP3(101-120)) sensitized target cells for cytolysis by infiltrating T cells or splenic T cells from virus-infected mice. The minimal epitopes within these peptides were defined as VP2(165-173) and VP3(110-120). Based on cytokine profiles, CTL specific for these subdominant epitopes are Tc2, in contrast to CTL for the immunodominant epitope, which are of the Tc1 type. Interestingly, CTL function towards both of these subdominant epitopes is restricted by the H-2D molecule, despite the fact that these epitopes bind both H-2K and H-2D molecules. This skewing toward an H-2D(b)-restricted response may confer resistance to TMEV-induced demyelinating disease, which is known to be associated with the H-2D genetic locus. 相似文献

B10.A (H-2Kk, H-2Dd) ectromelia-immune T cells from secondary responses in vitro were protent killers of both infected L929 (H-2Kk H-2Dk) and infected P-815 (H-2Kd, H-2Db) target cells. Specific competition with unlabelled targets showed that two separate T cell subsets were responsible for lysis of infected L929 and infected P-815 cells. One hypothesis to account for this (a form of "physiological interaction") is that T cells which kill one target e.g. infected L929) display only one out of two possible self-complementary recognition structures, in this example the H-2Kk alloantigen, not H-2Dd, whereas T cells that lyse infected P-815 targets display only H-2Dd, not H-2Kk. This hypothesis was tested and seems untenable because of the following results: A.TH (H-2Ks, H-2Dd) ectromelia-immune, secondary cytotoxic T cells which killed infected SJL/J (H-2Ks, H-2Ds) targets were themselves inactivated by pre-incubation with SJL/J cytotoxic T cells generated in one-way mixed lymphocyte reaction (MLR) against BALB/c (H-2Kd, H-2Dd). A.TL (H-2Ks, H-2Dd) ectromelia-immune secondary cytotoxic T cells which killed infected BALB/c targets were themselves inactivated by BALB/c cytotoxic T cells generated in MLR against SJL/J. Thus, virus-immune T cells which lyse infected targets by virtue of shared H-2K are also displaying H-2D alloantigen, and vice versa. 相似文献

Alloimmune murine thymus-derived cytotoxic lymphocytes (CTL) generated in vivo or in vitro are shown to lyse antigen-nonspecific target cells (tumor cells, Con A, and LPS blasts) following treatment of CTL with an oxidizing agent, sodium periodate (NaIO4). It has been shown that NaIO4 oxidizes terminal sialic acid residues of cell surface macromolecules. The presence of reactive aldehyde groups, generated by NaIO4 modification, is required for the expression of antigen-nonspecific cytotoxicity because treatment of modified cells with a reducing agent such as potassium borohydride (KBH4) resulted in the abrogation of cytotoxicity. However, KBH4 treatment of unmodified or NaIO4-modified CTL has no effect on antigen-specific cytotoxicity. The modification of CTL by NaIO4 is sufficient to lead to the formation of lymphocyte-target cell conjugates and lysis of bound targets. Monoclonal antibodies directed against the Lyt-2 antigens of CTL, but not Lyt-1 antigens, in the absence of complement inhibited the nonspecific cytotoxicity resulting from NaIO4 modification of effector lymphocytes. These findings suggest that the mere interaction with or perturbation of appropriate cell surface molecule(s) of effector lymphocytes such as Lyt antigens by receptor-ligand interaction in SCMC or by NaIO4 modification in ODCC may lead to the expression of cytotoxicity. The present studies demonstrate a functional role of surface carbohydrates on CTL in cell-to-cell recognition and interactions. Furthermore, the results suggest that target cell modification is not a requisite for recognition and lysis in an antigen-nonspecific cytotoxic system such as ODCC. However, partial blocking of ODCC by alloantibodies directed against the H-2 of unmodified target cells suggests that NaIO4-modified CTL recognize unrelated target H-2 antigens. The implication of these findings on the molecular mechanism of cell-mediated cytotoxicity is discussed. 相似文献

Most cytolytic T lymphocytes (CTL) recognize class I rather than class II MHC determinants, and relatively little is known about those CTL that do recognize class II MHC determinants. The present study was undertaken to document the specificity, phenotype, and precursor frequency of primary class II allospecific CTL. It was found that class II-allospecific CTL could be consistently generated in vitro from unprimed spleen or thymus populations in the presence of exogenously added helper factors. The class II MHC specificity of both the precursor and CTL effectors activated in primary cultures by Ia-disparate stimulator cells was documented both by blocking experiments with anti-Ia mAb and by the use of L cell transfectants. The mechanism by which primary allospecific CTL effectors lysed their targets appeared to involve direct cell-cell contact, because they failed to lyse bystander target cells. The frequency in unprimed spleen populations of precursor CTL specific for class II alloantigens was examined by limiting dilution analysis and was found to be as high as 1/15,000 splenocytes and approximately 10% of the frequency reported for primary class I allospecific CTL. Finally, the Lyt phenotype of primary class II allospecific CTL precursors and effectors was determined. It was found that anti-class II CTL derive from at least two distinct precursor subpopulations that are either L3T4+Lyt-2- or L3T4-Lyt-2+, and that the Lyt phenotype expressed by the CTL effectors are concordant with that of their precursors. No correlation was found between the I subregion gene products recognized by CTL effectors and the Lyt phenotype they expressed in that both I-A- and I-E-specific CTL were both L3T4+Lyt-2- and L3T4-Lyt-2+. 相似文献

We have examined the underlying mechanisms accounting for the enhanced in vitro TNP-specific cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL) response following the parenteral injection of syngeneic hapten-modified lymphoid cells. Augmented CTL activity noted following parenteral injection (iv vs sc) of 2,4,6-trinitrophenol-modified syngeneic spleen cells (TNP-SC) is most apparent when limiting numbers of TNP-modified stimulator cells are used in the in vitro sensitization phase. Enhanced CTL responses seen following sc and iv priming is due to distinct mechanisms. Spleen and lymph node (LN) cells from sc primed mice were found to contain significant levels of radioresistant helper activity upon coculture with either viable normal spleen cells in bulk culture or with thymocytes as the source of precursor CTLs in a limiting dilution assay. The helper activity was found to be mediated by a Lyt 1+2- T cells. In addition, Lyt 2-depleted spleen and LN cells from sc primed BALB/c mice could restore the ability of tolerant spleen cells from 2,4,6-trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid (TNBS)-injected BALB/c mice to generate TNP-specific CTLs. Conversely, Lyt 2-depleted spleen and LN cells from iv primed mice provided no measurable helper activity either in bulk culture or in the limiting dilution assay and did not restore the ability of TNBS-tolerant BALB/c spleen cells to generate TNP-specific CTLs. CTL priming via the iv route was found to be completely antigen specific as iv injection of either 2,4-dinitrophenol (DNP)- or fluorescein isothiocyanatel (FITC)-modified cells caused no enhanced CTL activity. Priming via the sc route exhibited a unique specificity pattern as it was shown that sc injection of both TNP-SC and DNP-SC, but not FITC-SC, resulted in enhanced TNP-specific CTL responses. CTL T-helper (Th)-cell induction via the sc route was correlated with (1) the presence of H-2 I region determinants on the inducer cells as the sc injection of TNP-modified erythrocytes led to no enhanced CTL responses or CTL Th activity (while iv injection of TNP-erythrocytes did lead to enhanced CTL responses without detectable helper activity) and (2) the detection of both hapten-specific T-cell proliferation and Interleukin 2 (IL-2) production upon restimulation in culture. We conclude that the sc injection of TNP-SC leads preferentially to an increase of specific Lyt 1+ helper activity, while iv injection leads preferentially to an apparent expansion of Lyt 2+ prelytic effector CTLs. 相似文献

The role of T cells in anti-herpes simplex virus immunity. I. Induction of antigen-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes. 总被引:25,自引:0,他引:25

Mice infected with herpes simplex virus develop little or no cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) response. However, in lymph nodes (LN's) draining a local site infected with HSV, antigen-specific CTL precursors are sensitized, which upon transfer to in vitro culture conditions develop within 72 hr into effective CTL. The in vivo blockade of CTL differentiation can be overcome by cyclophosphamide, suggesting that a cyclophosphamide-sensitive mechanism blocks the in vivo generation of HSV-immune CTL. The cytolytic activity of HSV-immune CTL is H-2 restricted and antigen specific. Thus CTL sensitized toward HSV type 1 discriminate between syngeneic targets infected with either the immunologic HSV variant type 1 or type 2 (and vice versa). H-2-matched target cells exposed for 30 min to infectious HSV are lysed within 60 min of contact with CTL. Since HSV replication is believed to require more than 4 to 5 hr, the data suggest that either the expression of HSV-dependent "early proteins" takes place within 30 to 90 min or cell membrane-integrated HSV virion represents the target antigen of CTL. 相似文献

H-2Kb mutations limit the CTL response to SV40 TASA 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) responses directed towards SV40 tumor-associated specific antigen (TASA) in nine strains of spontaneously arising Kb mutant mice were analyzed. All nine mutants generated normal levels of H-2Db-restricted response, but the K-end-restricted CTL response varied. B6.C-H-2bm1 (bm1) did not produce K-end-restricted SV40 TASA-specific CTL upon immunization, and SV40-transformed bm1 cells were not lysed by intra-H-2 recombinant Kb [B10.A(5R)] CTL. Nonreciprocal cross-reactive lysis was seen between B6-H-2bm8 (bm8) and B10.A(5R). Strain B6-H-2bm8 mice produce highly specific Kbm8-restricted CTL that lyse SV40-transformed bm8 cells (Kbm8SV) but not B10.A(5R) target cells (K5RSV), although Kbm8SV targets can be partially lysed by B10.A(5R) CTL. The other seven Kb mutants cross-react with B10.A(5R). These experiments definitively show that genes mapping to the K and/or D region directly control the H-2-restricted CTL response to SV40 TASA. 相似文献

It is well established that cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) specific for the male minor histocompatibility antigen (H-Y) are generated by restimulation in vitro of in vivo primed spleen cells from C57BL/6 (H-2b) female mice with syngeneic male spleen cells. When tested on target cells from H-2 different strains, the male-specific C57BL/6 CTL populations exhibited significant lysis of DBA/2 (H-2d), A (H-2a), but not C3H (H-2k), male and female target cells. In an attempt to document this cross-reactivity further at the clonal level, a sensitive technique of limiting dilution analysis was used to determine the specificity of C57BL/6 individual CTL precursors (CTL-P) reactive against the male antigen. The mean frequency of anti-H-Y CTL-P in spleens of primed female mice was about 1/3500. Between one-third to one-tenth of these CTL-P produced a progeny that cross-reacted with H-2d (allogeneic) female target cells. These findings were confirmed by the analysis of the reactivity pattern exhibited by male-specific CTL clones derived by limiting dilution. Of 99 clones tested, 13 were found to cross-react with female DBA/2 target cells. These results thus indicate that a relatively large proportion (greater than 10%) of H-2b CTL-P directed against the H-Y antigen cross-react with target cells expressing H-2d alloantigens in the absence of H-Y antigen. 相似文献

Cytotoxic T lymphocytes, generated in C57BL/6 mice in response to herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV) and known to be restricted in their recognition of HSV-encoded antigen(s) in association with the class I H-2Kb gene product, were consistently found to contain a subpopulation that recognized and lysed uninfected, SV40-transformed cells that expressed the H-2Kbm3 and H-2Kbm11 mutant class I gene products on their cell surface. The mutant cell lines, designated Lgbm3SV and Kbm11SV, share a common amino acid substitution at position 77, with the bm3 mutation having an additional amino acid substitution at position 89. Cross-reactive lysis was observed only after in vivo priming with HSV, suggesting an important role for an antigen-dependent driving step in the expansion of these cross-reactive CTL. The phenotype of the cross-reactive effector population was further confirmed as a T lymphocyte by negative-selection techniques. Limiting dilution analysis of the frequency of cross-reactive CTL precursors suggested that cross-reactivity was mediated by a subpopulation of HSV-specific CTL, and this was confirmed by clonal analysis of the reactivity patterns of short-term, HSV-specific CTL clones. However, analysis of the specificity of the cross-reactive CTL population by cold-target inhibition of bulk culture-derived CTL, or by Spearman ranking analysis of limiting dilution-derived CTL, indicated that the specificity of the cross-reactive population for HSV-infected H-2b target cells and for uninfected bm3 or bm11 target cells was quite distinct. These findings suggested that the cross-reactive CTL population played little, if any, role in the HSV-specific CTL response as measured in vitro. The findings also suggested that the HSV-specific CTL clones able to mediate cross-reactive recognition of the bm3 and bm11 targets had a higher intrinsic avidity for the foreign target than for the inducing antigen. 相似文献

The cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) activity of spleen cells from BALB/c (H-2d) mice immunized with the neurotropic JHM strain of mouse hepatitis virus (JHMV) was stimulated in vitro for 7 days. CTL were tested for recognition of target cells infected with either JHMV or vaccinia virus recombinants expressing the four virus structural proteins. Only target cells infected with either JHMV or the vaccinia virus recombinant expressing the JHMV nucleocapsid protein were recognized. Cytotoxic T cell lines were established by limiting dilution from the brains of mice undergoing acute demyelinating encephalomyelitis after infection with JHMV. Twenty of the 22 lines recognized JHMV-infected but not uninfected syngeneic target cells, indicating that they are specific for JHMV. All T-cell lines except one were CD8+. The specificity of the CTL lines was examined by using target cells infected with vaccinia virus recombinants expressing the JHMV nucleocapsid, spike, membrane, and hemagglutinin-esterase structural proteins. Seventeen lines recognized target cells expressing the nucleocapsid protein. Three of the JHMV-specific T-cell lines were unable to recognize target cells expressing any of the JHMV structural proteins, indicating that they are specific for an epitope of a nonstructural protein(s) of JHMV. These data indicate that the nucleocapsid protein induces an immunodominant CTL response. However, no CTL activity specific for the nucleocapsid protein could be detected in either the spleens or cervical lymph nodes of mice 4, 5, 6, or 7 days after intracranial infection, suggesting that the CTL response to JHMV infection within the central nervous system may be induced or expanded locally. 相似文献

Pertussis toxin (PT), the major toxin produced by Bordetella pertussis, has been reported both to enhance and to suppress immune responsiveness. These findings suggested that PT contributes to the virulence of B. pertussis through mechanisms involving immune regulation. We report that PT suppressed both the primary and the secondary cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL) responses of mouse spleen cells cultured against two different allogeneic stimulator spleen cells in vitro. This suppression was dependent on the dose of PT used. PT must be present during the initial stages (within the first 24 hr) of CTL generation. Soluble factor(s) obtained from spleen cells preexposed to PT did not suppress the CTL response. Suppression of the CTL response observed was not due to depletion of the antigen by PT. The cytotoxic activity of CTL clones could not be suppressed by PT. The analysis of responder spleen cells, fractionated by anti-immunoglobulin panning techniques, provided evidence that L3T4-, Lyt 2+ cells mediate the PT-induced immunosuppression. We propose that suppression of the CTL response by PT is generated through the activation of L3T4-, Lyt 2+ suppressor T lymphocytes. 相似文献

One model to explain the high frequency of alloreactive T cells proposes that allogeneic MHC molecules are recognized together with host cell-derived peptides. A model system was developed to investigate the relevance of this mechanism by expression of H-2Dd or H-2Ld in 174xCEM.T2 (T2) cells. This human cell line contains a mutation in its Ag-processing pathway that should restrict the association of endogenous peptides with cell surface class I molecules. CTL generated by stimulating C57BL/6 (H-2b) responder cells with H-2Dd or H-2Ld transfectants of the human B cell line C1R or the murine T cell lymphoma EL4 were assayed for their ability to recognize alloantigenic determinants on these transfectants. The major fraction of the H-2Dd-specific allogeneic CTL response, generated in a MLC or under clonal limiting dilution conditions, was composed of T cells that recognized H-2Dd expressed on C1R or EL4 cells, but failed to recognize this molecule on T2 cells. Clonal analysis indicated that approximately one-third of these CTL recognized determinants that were unique to H-2Dd expressed on C1R stimulator cells whereas the remainder recognized determinants that were also found on EL4 transfectants. Less than 10% of H-2Dd-reactive CTL recognized the T2 transfectant, and these clones also killed C1R-Dd and EL4-Dd. This result suggests that the great majority of H-2Dd-specific alloreactive CTL recognize determinants that are formed by a complex of H-2Dd with endogenous peptides that are absent or significantly reduced in T2 cells. Based on recognition of human or murine transfectants, these CTL exhibit some level of specificity for the structure or composition of the bound peptides. Examination of allogeneic CTL specific for H-2Ld revealed populations similar to those described for H-2Dd. In addition, a major new population was present that recognized determinants shared between C1R-Ld and T2-Ld but not present on EL4-Ld. These results are consistent with the idea that the alloreactive response to H-2Ld is also largely dependent on the presence of bound peptide. However, they also may indicate that the H-2Ld molecule expressed on T2 cells is occupied by one or more peptides that are shared with other human, but not murine, cells. The significance of these results to current models of alloreactivity is discussed. 相似文献

CD8(+) cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) generated by immunization with allogeneic cells or viral infection are able to lyse allogeneic or virally infected in vitro cells (e.g., lymphoma and mastocytoma). In contrast, it is reported that CD8(+) T cells are not essential for allograft rejection (e.g., heart and skin), and that clearance of influenza or the Sendai virus from virus-infected respiratory epithelium is normal or only slightly delayed after a primary viral challenge of CD8-knockout mice. To address this controversy, we generated H-2(d)-specific CD8(+) CTLs by a mixed lymphocyte culture and examined the susceptibility of a panel of H-2(d) cells to CTL lysis. KLN205 squamous cell carcinoma, Meth A fibrosarcoma, and BALB/c skin components were found to be resistant to CTL-mediated lysis. This resistance did not appear to be related to a reduced expression of MHC class I molecules, and all these cells could block the recognition of H-2(d) targets by CTLs in cold target inhibition assays. We extended our observation by persistently infecting the same panel of cell lines with defective-interfering Sendai virus particles. The Meth A and KLN205 lines infected with a variant Sendai virus were resistant to lysis by Sendai virus-specific CTLs. The Sendai virus-infected Meth A and KLN205 lines were able to block the lysis of Sendai virus-infected targets by CTLs in cold target inhibition assays. Taken together, these results suggest that not all in vivo tissues may be sensitive to CTL lysis. 相似文献

The Lyt phenotype of cytotoxic T cells generated in the primary H-2 response was investigated kinetically. The cytotoxicity generated in the early stage of culture was abolished by treatment with alpha Lyt-1,2,3, and complement (C), whereas that generated in the late stage was only partially eliminated by alpha Lyt-1, but was abolished by alpha Lyt-2, 3, and C. This suggested late expansion of the Lyt-1-2+3+ population. Lack of Lyt-1 antigen was confirmed with cells that were depleted of Lyt-1+ from primary culture and then stimulated in the secondary response by elimination of cytotoxicity and by direct Lyt typing. Results indicated that the response of proliferative and cytotoxic T cells of the Lyt-1+2+3+ phenotype in the early stage of culture was followed by activation of Lyt-1-2+3+ T cells. Cytotoxic T cells in the late stage were shown to be a mixture of Lyt-1+2+3+ and Lyt-1-2+3+ cells. This was confirmed with cytotoxic T cells from secondary culture and uncloned long-term T cell lines. 相似文献

Although it is well known that an H-2-restricted cytotoxic T cell response to minor histocompatibility antigens (MIHA) can be primed in vivo with H-2 disparate spleen cells, it has not been previously possible to induce cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) precursors (CTLp) in vitro by this type of challenge. In this work, we demonstrate that the inability to cross challenge in vitro is due to the existence of inhibitory effects that can be obviated by cell fractionation, and to insufficient priming in vivo. BALB/c CTLp (H-2d) that have been repeatedly primed in vivo with B10.D2 can be challenged in vitro with C57BL10/J (H-2b) or B10.BR (H-2k)-adherent cells to generate CTL able to lyse B10.D2 (H-2d) target cells. The H-2 restriction properties of the cross-challenged CTL specific for MIHA were analyzed by using the technique of cold target competition. Within the limits of detection in bulk cultures, the entire response appeared to be H-2 unrestricted, whether the cross challenge was with intact C57BL10/J-adherent cells, or with membrane fragments of C57BL10/J presented by BALB/c adherent cells. The frequency of CTLp responsive to cross challenge was analyzed by limiting dilution, with cold target competition at each cell number to establish the restriction properties of the MIHA-specific CTL induced. We were able to detect two subsets of H-2-unrestricted CTLp responsive to intact C57BL10/J-adherent cells; one present at high frequency (1/250 T cells) and subject to suppressive effects at high cell number, and a second present at lower frequency (1/9800 T cells). There appeared to be a relatively infrequent subset of H-2-restricted CTLp as well (1/52,500 T cells). The frequency of CTLp responsive to cross challenge is of comparable magnitude to the frequency of H-2-restricted CTLp responsive to H-2-matched cells bearing MIHA. These observations are discussed in relationship to immunodominance and clonal dominance effects in the response to MIHA. 相似文献
