The effects of feeding the dietary protein antigen, ovalbumin (OVA), on OVA-specific IgG and IgA immune responses involving Peyer's patches (PP) and mesenteric lymph nodes (MLN) were examined. Mice were administered soluble OVA by gastric intubation. One to 3 days later, PP, MLN, or spleen cells from these donor mice were adoptively transferred into normal syngeneic recipients. After two subsequent immunizations, spleens from the recipient mice were assayed for IgA and IgG anti-OVA plaque-forming cell (PFC) responses. None of the tissues from normal (unfed) mice had the inherent ability to alter recipients' IgG or IgA PFC responses. Within 1 day of OVA feeding, however, cells were generated in the PP that could augment recipients' IgA anti-OVA PFC responses and suppress IgG PFC responses. Three days after OVA feeding, these cells were present in MLN as well, and whereas the IgG suppressor cell also appeared to migrate to spleen, the IgA helper cell did not. The cells mediating antigen-specific IgG suppression and IgA help were both T cells but could be distinguished by surface phenotype. We therefore conclude that protein feeding induces differential, isotype-specific immunoregulation in gut-associated lymphoid tissues, part of which is mediated by an antigen-specific IgA helper T cell. 相似文献

An antigen-specific factor capable of augmenting delayed-type hypersensitivity (DH) in the culture supernatants from immune spleen cells and erythrocyte antigen has been found. These culture supernatants also augmented an immediate hypersensitivity-like reaction which appeared in advance of the classical DH reaction. In this paper, the basic characteristics and cells producing the augmentation factor (IAF) involved in immediate hypersensitivity-like reaction were investigated. Maximum activity of IAF was detected in a supernatant from 24-hr culture of immune spleen cells and antigen. In vitro antigen stimulation was essentially required for the production or release of IAF. IAF showed antigen-specificity. IAF was produced or released by T cells. In addition to these facts, the DH-augmentation factor proved to be a T-cell product. 相似文献

The present study examines an antiserum prepared against antigen-reactive T cells that induces murine H-Y-specific delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) responses. This anti-H-Y receptor antibody (ARA) was raised in C57BL/6 male mice against splenic T lymphocytes from H-Y immune syngeneic females. Subcutaneous administration of ARA to cyclophosphamide-pretreated C57BL/6 females is able to induce H-Y-specific delayed-type footpad swelling responses. The DTH inducing capacity in ARA was selectively retained on rabbit anti-mouse immunoglobulin columns and was absorbed completely by H-Y immune lymphoid cells from C57BL/6 females. The induction of H-Y DTH reactivity was due at least in part to the activation of H-Y antigen-specific T lymphocytes that could adoptively transfer DTH-like responses to naive female mice. ARA induces DTH responses in strains with the same lgh regions, including selected strains of H-Y nonresponders. Therefore, MHC-linked lr genes do not appear to be as critical when responses are triggered by ARA instead of by antigen. Possible mechanisms for the induction of immune responses by ARA are discussed. 相似文献

The pure delayed-type hypersensitivity reaction obtained in 4-day ovalbumin-sensitized mice after antigen challenge in the footpad was abrogated by transfer of in vitro expanded, antigen-specific lymphoblasts derived from ovalbumin-hyperimmunized donors (high antibody producers), 12 h before immunization. This effect was specific inasmuch as Trypanosoma cruzi-specific blasts derived from Tc-Ag-hyperimmunized mice did not inhibit delayed-type hypersensitivity in ovalbumin-immunized recipients. The ovalbumin-specific blasts displayed a Th2 cytokine profile, secreting IL-4 and IL-10 upon restimulation in vitro with ovalbumin, but not IFN-gamma or IL-2. In addition, recipients of such cells produced much more IgG1 and IgE antibodies. When the frequency of T-cell blasts was enriched among these cells, transfer of four million cells was enough to prevent the induction of delayed-type hypersensitivity. Neutralization of IL-4 alone just before cell transfer not only restored the delayed-type hyper-sensitivity reaction, but also maintained it in a plateau for at least 72 h after challenge. Recipients treated in this way also showed a shift back towards a Th1 phenotype, indicated by the increase in IL-2, IFN-gamma and IL-12 synthesis. No synergistic action was observed when IL-4 and IL-10 were concomitantly neutralized. These results indicate that activation of Ag-specific Th2 cells early in the course of the immune response to a protein antigen provides an immunological environment rich in IL-4, thus leading to the inhibition of cell-mediated immunity. 相似文献

Long-term antigen expression is believed to play an important role in modulation of T-cell responses to chronic virus infections. However, recent studies suggest that immune responses may occur late after apparently acute infections. We have now analyzed the CD8 T-cell response to vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV), which is thought to cause to an infection characterized by rapid virus clearance by innate and adaptive immune system components. Unexpectedly, virus-encoded antigen was detectable more than 6 weeks after intranasal VSV infection in both draining and nondraining lymph nodes by adoptively transferred CD8 T cells. Infection with Listeria monocytogenes expressing the same antigen did not result in prolonged antigen presentation. Weeks after VSV infection, discrete T-cell clustering with dendritic cells within the lymph node was observed after transfer of antigen-specific CD8 T cells. Moreover, memory CD8 T cells as defined by phenotype and function were generated from na?ve CD8 T cells entering the response late after infection. These findings suggested that protracted antigen presentation after an apparently acute virus infection may contribute to an ongoing antiviral immune response. 相似文献

Oral tolerance is being promoted as a therapy for autoimmune diseases and therefore will need to be functional in a primed immune system. In previous studies, we found that although primed mice could be tolerized by feeding ovalbumin (OVA), the degree of the tolerance and its effects on individual components of the systemic immune response were more limited than that found in naive animals. Here we increased the dose and frequency of antigen feeding in an attempt to extend the effects of oral tolerance in primed mice and to understand why its effects are limited under these conditions. Increasing the amounts of OVA fed, up to a single dose of 400 mg, or using multiple feeds of 5 x 5 or 5 x 25 mg OVA, did not radically alter the extent of tolerance, with DTH responses, antigen-specific proliferation, and IL5 and IFN-gamma production still being tolerized, but antibody responses remaining generally resistant. The deficient tolerance in primed mice could not be overcome by waiting for maximum clonal expansion to wane and was not influenced by persistent release of antigen from a depot adjuvant. We conclude that the resistance of primed mice to oral tolerance may be due to the fact that antigen-experienced T cells may be inherently resistant to induction of tolerance, or that the microenvironment of the primed immune system inhibits the delivery of tolerogenic signals to antigen-specific T cells. 相似文献

Cholera toxin (CT) is a mucosal adjuvant capable of inducing strong immune responses to co-administered antigens following oral or intranasal immunization of mice. To date, the direct effect of CT on antigen-specific CD4+ T cell migration and proliferation profiles in vivo is not well characterized. In this study, the effect of CT on the migration pattern and proliferative responses of adoptively transferred, CD4+ TCR transgenic T cells in orally or intranasally vaccinated mice, was analyzed by flow cytometry. GFP-expressing or CFSE-labeled OT-II lymphocytes were adoptively transferred to naïve C57BL/6 mice, and mice were subsequently vaccinated with OVA with or without CT via the oral or intranasal route. CT did not alter the migration pattern of antigen-specific T cells, regardless of the route of immunization, but increased the number of transgenic CD4+ T cells in draining lymphoid tissue. This increase in the number of transgenic CD4+ T cells was not due to cells undergoing more rounds of cellular division in vivo, suggesting that CT may exert an indirect adjuvant effect on CD4+ T cells. The findings reported here suggest that CT functions as a mucosal adjuvant by increasing the number of antigen specific CD4+ T cells independent of their migration pattern or kinetics of cellular division. 相似文献

Apoptosis of antigen-specific T cells induced by oral administration of antigen: comparison of intestinal and non-intestinal immune organs. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Oral administration of a protein without adjuvant brings about oral tolerance (systemic hyporesponsiveness) to that protein by mechanisms such as antigen-induced apoptosis. We monitored the number and apoptosis induction of CD4+ T cells in antigen-specific T cell receptor transgenic mice fed the antigen ovalbumin to identify where events leading to oral tolerance occurred. The antigen was distributed throughout the body, causing apoptosis and a decrease in cell number of CD4+ T cells in most of the lymphoid system: the spleen, peripheral lymph nodes, and the thymus which was not previously reported to be affected. Although apoptosis was induced in the Peyer's patches, the cell number did not change. Unexpectedly, T cells in the mesenteric lymph nodes did not undergo apoptosis; instead, they were more numerous as compared to that in the case of control animals not administered the antigen. The results suggested that the orally administered antigen activated the intestinal immune system, while it induced immune tolerance in other sites. 相似文献

We utilized a model of experimental interstitial nephritis induced by renal tubular antigen in complete Freund's adjuvant to examine a mechanism of immunologic tolerance produced by priming immunization with tubular antigen in incomplete Freund's adjuvant. Brown Norway rats primed with tubular antigen in incomplete adjuvant do not develop significant nephritis after challenge with antigen in complete adjuvant, and this tolerance can be transferred to naive recipients with donor T cells. These T cells also specifically suppress a delayed-type hypersensitivity response to soluble tubular antigen in recipients immunized to produce disease. This suppression is MHC-restricted and is mediated by OX8+ T cells which bind antigen and bear idiotypes cross-reactive with those on antibodies eluted from the tubular basement membrane. Despite the suppression of histologic disease, tolerized animals were able to produce significant titers of antibodies to tubular basement membrane. Our findings demonstrate an additional strategy for altering the natural history of immune-mediated renal disease, and further refine the characterization of the suppressive effect produced by incomplete Freund's adjuvant. 相似文献

In this report, we have examined the effector T cell repertoire in the spontaneous interstitial nephritis of kdkd mice. Lymph node cells from nephritic kdkd mice are capable of transferring this disease into thymectomized, irradiated, and bone marrow-reconstituted CBA/Ca recipients. CBA/Ca mice do not spontaneously develop interstitial nephritis and are normally resistant to the adoptive transfer of nephritic cells, a resistance that in the short term can be attenuated with low-dose cyclophosphamide. We therefore used delayed-type hypersensitivity responses and direct transfer of immune cells under the renal capsule to characterize nephritogenic effector cells from kdkd donor mice. Lyt-2+, L3T4- T cells from the peripheral lymphoid organs of nephritic kdkd mice, after adoptive transfer into cyclophosphamide-pretreated CBA/Ca recipients, mediate an antigen-specific delayed-type hypersensitivity response to renal tubular basement membrane antigens. These cells are restricted by gene products in H-2Kk; they are also present in nephritic, but not in control kidneys. We have also observed this same phenotypic subpopulation of kdkd lymphocytes mediate a destructive interstitial renal lesion within 7 days of being placed under the kidney capsule of CBA/Ca mice. These findings suggest that T lymphocytes reactive to a parenchymal tubular antigen are of substantial importance in the development of spontaneous interstitial nephritis in kdkd mice. 相似文献

Cloned T-cell lines that mediate delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) against soluble protein antigen, ovalbumin (OA), were established in (C57BL/6 X DBA/2)F1 mice and their properties were examined. They induced antigen-specific delayed-type footpad reactions, characterized histologically by a predominant mononuclear cell infiltration, when transferred intravenously into syngeneic mice. Morphologically, they were medium or large lymphoblasts with granules in the cytoplasm and expressed Lyt 1 cell surface antigens. One of them proliferated antigen specifically under the presence of both C57BL/6 and F1 accessory cells, while others proliferated antigen specifically only under the presence of F1 accessory cells. They also produced macrophage-activating factor (MAF) and substances which mediate a DTH-like footpad inflammatory reaction with a maximum 6 hr after injection into the footpad of normal mice, when incubated in the presence of specific antigen and specific accessory cells in a serum-free medium for 24 hr. These results demonstrate that cloned DTH-effector T cells, established here against soluble protein antigen, are Lyt 1-positive, large lymphoblasts and that they produce MAF and footpad-reactive inflammatory substances antigen specifically under the presence of specific accessory cells. 相似文献

Oral tolerance is an important physiological component of the immune system whereby the organism avoids dangerous reactions such as hypersensitivity to ingested food proteins and other luminal Ags which may cause tissue damage and inflammation. In addition, it has been shown in animal models and in humans that oral tolerance can be applied to controlling undesired immune responses, including autoimmune diseases, allergies, and organ transplant rejections. However, the molecular mechanisms of oral tolerance have been poorly defined. In this study, we investigated the molecular basis underlying the hyporesponsiveness of orally tolerant CD4 T cells using a TCR transgenic mouse system in which oral tolerance was induced by long-term feeding with high dose Ag. We demonstrate that the hyporesponsive state of the CD4 T cells was maintained by a selective impairment in the TCR-induced calcium/NFAT signaling pathway and in the IL-2R-induced degradation of p27(kip1) and cell cycle progression. Thus, physiological mucosal tolerance is revealed to be associated with a unique type of T cell hyporesponsiveness which differs from previously described anergic T cells. 相似文献

Our investigations probed the nature of different T-lymphocyte subsets effecting clearance of herpes simplex virus after infection of the pinna. Cell populations from animals recently infected subcutaneously or intraperitoneally (acute population) or from animals infected 6 weeks previously (primed population) or the latter cells reimmunized in vitro with virus (memory population) were studied. Viral clearance was a function of the Lyt 1+2- subset in the acute population, but with the memory population both Lyt 1+ and Lyt 2+ cells affected clearance. In primed populations, viral clearance was effected only by the Lyt 2+ subset. The ability of the various cell populations to adoptively transfer delayed-type hypersensitivity was also studied. Only acute population cells from animals infected subcutaneously and memory population cells transferred delayed-type hypersensitivity. In both cases, the cell subtype was Lyt 1+2-. Our results demonstrated that the delayed-type hypersensitivity response does not always correlate with immunity to herpes simplex virus. Multiple subsets of T cells participate in viral clearance, and their respective importances vary according to the stage of the virus-host interaction. 相似文献

Dissociation of hemopoietic chimerism and allograft tolerance after allogeneic bone marrow transplantation. 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

Creation of stable hemopoietic chimerism has been considered to be a prerequisite for allograft tolerance after bone marrow transplantation (BMT). In this study, we demonstrated that allogeneic BMT with bone marrow cells (BMC) prepared from either knockout mice deficient in both CD4 and CD8 T cells or CD3E-transgenic mice lacking both T cells and NK cells maintained a high degree of chimerism, but failed to induce tolerance to donor-specific wild-type skin grafts. Lymphocytes from mice reconstituted with T cell-deficient BMC proliferated when they were injected into irradiated donor strain mice, whereas lymphocytes from mice reconstituted with wild-type BMC were unresponsive to donor alloantigens. Donor-specific allograft tolerance was restored when donor-type T cells were adoptively transferred to recipient mice given T cell-deficient BMC. These results show that donor T cell engraftment is required for induction of allograft tolerance, but not for creation of continuous hemopoietic chimerism after allogeneic BMT, and that a high degree of chimerism is not necessarily associated with specific allograft tolerance. 相似文献

Studies on the mechanism of the enhancement of delayed-type hypersensitivity by pertussigen 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The potentiation of delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) reactions by pertussigen, a protein toxin from Bordetella pertussis, has been studied in adoptive transfer assays. Lymph node or spleen cells from mice treated with or without pertussigen at the time of immunization with protein antigens were transferred to naive, syngeneic recipients that were challenged with antigen. Cells from donors treated with pertussigen had the capacity to transfer vigorous, antigen-specific DTH reactions. Cells from immunized donors not given pertussigen transferred little or no DTH. These results indicate that pertussigen is able to augment DTH reactions by potentiating the antigen reactivity of cell populations in lymphoid organs. The phenotype of the effector cells induced by pertussigen was Thy-1 positive, L3T4 positive, and Ly-2 negative. Cells from mice given pertussigen and an irrelevant antigen had no influence on specific DTH responses, suggesting that pertussigen enhances the activity of the antigen-specific cell type mediating DTH. The effect of pertussigen and of immunization on the lymphocyte subpopulations present in the lymph nodes was studied by analysis of suspensions of lymph node cells by flow cytometry. In immunized and in nonimmune mice, pertussigen increased the ratio of Ly-2-negative:Ly-2-positive T cells, and reduced the overall proportion of B cells. In immunized mice, pertussigen induced a much higher proportion of large dividing cells from 5 days after sensitization onwards. The relevance of these changes in lymphocyte behavior to the development of enhanced and prolonged DTH in mice given pertussigen is discussed. 相似文献

Suppression of adjuvant arthritis in Lewis rats by oral administration of type II collagen 总被引:21,自引:0,他引:21

Adjuvant arthritis is induced by intradermal injection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MT) in oil. The role of immunity to type II collagen (CII) in adjuvant arthritis (AA) has not been well defined. We found that oral administration of chicken CII given 3 micrograms per feeding on days -7, -5, and -2 before disease induction consistently suppressed the development of AA. A decrease in delayed-type hypersensitivity responses to CII was also observed that correlated with suppression of AA. AA was optimally suppressed by 3 and 30 micrograms of collagen type II variably by 300 micrograms, and not by 0.3 microgram or 1 mg. Oral administration of collagen type I also suppressed AA; only minimal effects were seen with collagen type III. Suppression was Ag specific: feeding CII did not suppress experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis; feeding myelin basic protein suppressed experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis, but not AA. Suppression of AA could not be consistently obtained by feeding MT. Suppression of AA could be adoptively transferred by T cells from CII fed animals and could be obtained when CII was fed after disease onset. Our results suggest that autoimmunity to CII has a pathogenic role in AA and raise the possibility that cross-reactive epitopes exist between CII and MT. Alternatively, the pathogenesis of AA may be dependent on developing immunity to CII. These results further demonstrate the effectiveness of oral tolerance as a means to suppress experimental autoimmune diseases. 相似文献

Regulation of the transfer of delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) reactions to SRBC was studied using two assays. In the systemic transfer, SRBC immune cells were transferred intravenously and the recipient challenged by injecting antigen into the footpad. In the local transfer assay, SRBC immune cells were mixed with antigen before transfer into the footpad of the recipient. These studies utilized B10.D2 and B10.BR mice which are congenic strains differing only at H-2 region. DTH reactions can be transferred across H-2 barriers using a local transfer assay. When the immune cells were transferred intravenously or depleted of adherent cells prior to local transfer, DTH reactions cannot be transferred to an H-2 congenic recipient. Spleen cells from naive mice syngeneic to the intravenously transferred cells supply the necessary accessory cell when mixed with the antigen prior to injection into the footpad. This accessory cell may be a macrophage. 相似文献

Previously, we reported that tolerance to nickel, induced by oral administration of Ni(2+) ions, can be adoptively transferred to naive mice with only 10(2) splenic T cells. Here we show that 10(2) T cell-depleted spleen cells (i.e., APCs) from orally tolerized donors can also transfer nickel tolerance. This cannot be explained by simple passive transfer of the tolerogen. The APCs from orally tolerized donors displayed a reduced allostimulatory capacity, a tolerogenic phenotype, and an increased expression of CD38 on B cells. In fact, it was B cells among the APCs that carried the thrust of tolerogenicity. Through serial adoptive transfers with Ly5.1(+) donors and two successive sets of Ly5.2(+) recipients, we demonstrated that nickel tolerance was infectiously spread from donor to host cells. After the transfer of either T cells or APCs from orally tolerized donors, the spread of tolerance to the opposite cell type of the recipients (i.e., APCs and T cells, respectively) required recipient immunization with NiCl(2)/H(2)O(2). For the spread of tolerance from a given donor cell type, T cell or APC, to the homologous host cell type, the respective opposite cell type in the host was required as intermediate. We conclude that T suppressor cells and tolerogenic APCs induced by oral administration of nickel are part of a positive feedback loop that can enhance and maintain tolerance when activated by Ag associated with a danger signal. Under these conditions, APCs and T suppressor effector cells infectiously spread the tolerance to naive T cells and APCs, respectively. 相似文献

We observed the emergence of an antigen-specific Lyt-2+ suppressor T cell after the i.v. injection of tubular antigen-derivatized lymphocytes into mice already immunized to produce interstitial nephritis. The auto-induction of these suppressor T cells effectively attenuated both the expression of renal injury and a delayed-type hypersensitivity response to tubular antigen. This suppressive effect was also genetically restricted by gene products in I-J and Igh-1. Although this suppressor system had a marked inhibitory effect on the nephritogenic effector cell repertoire, there was no diminution of titers of antibodies to the tubular basement membrane. Our results demonstrate a protective role for antigen-specific suppressor cells in autoimmune renal injury, and the strategy for their induction may have important therapeutic implications for other immune-mediated disorders. 相似文献

Acetoacetylation converts flagellin from an antigen which preferentially induces humoral antibodies to an antigen which exclusively provokes cell-mediated immunity and, under certain circumstances, induces antibody tolerance. Studies reported in this paper revealed that the acetoacetylated flagellins expressed similar immunological properties in flagellin primed rats as in normal rats. Thus, on the one hand, acetoacetylation destroyed the capacity of flagellin to trigger a secondary antibody response, but on the other hand, the acetoacetyl-flagellins very effectively induced delayed-type hypersensitivity reactions in flagellin primed animals. It was concluded from these results that humoral and cell-mediated immunity may be opposing immunological processes in both unprimed and primed animals.Acetoacetylated flagellin induced antibody tolerance in both strain W (low responder) and J (high responder) Wistar rats. Maximum tolerance was induced 12 hr after injection of antigen, but in strain J animals the tolerance had disappeared by 48 hr, whereas in strain W rats tolerance persisted for >28 days. The potential to recover from tolerance in strain J rats appeared to coincide with the level of delayed hypersensitivity at the time of challenge. However, this delayed hypersensitivity disappeared when breaking of tolerance occurred. These results suggest that the T cells which participate in delayed hypersensitivity reactions may also act as “helper” cells in antibody responses. On the other hand, it was found that priming for a secondary antibody response by flagellin appeared to coincide with development of primary antibodies rather than with induction of delayed-type hypersensitivity. The relative importance of specific T and B cells in these phenomena is discussed. 相似文献
