Various investigators have examined the relationship between tumor cell susceptibility to natural killer (NK) cell lysis and the expression of HLA class I antigens on the tumor cell. There is controversy as to whether or not an inverse relationship exists, and if so, the basis of the relationship between these two phenomena remains undefined. To address these questions, the genomic clones for two HLA antigens were transfected into the erythroleukemia cell line K562, a cell line that is used as the standard to assess human NK and major histocompatibility complex (MHC) nonrestricted cytolysis. Susceptibility to NK lysis was not affected by the de novo expression of HLA antigens on the K562 after DNA mediated gene transfer. Interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) treatment of K562 induced levels of MHC class I antigen surface expression comparable to those found on the transfected cells; however, the IFN-gamma-treated cells were resistant to NK lysis. When very high levels of surface HLA antigens were induced on the transfectants, a potential effect of class I MHC expression on K562 lysis could be discerned that was distinct from the resistance to NK lysis induced by IFN-gamma-treatment. 相似文献

Retrovirus-induced changes in major histocompatibility complex antigen expression influence susceptibility to lysis by cytotoxic T lymphocytes 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8

Retrovirus infection of murine fibroblasts was found to alter the expression of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) antigens. Fibroblasts infected with Moloney murine leukemia virus (M-MuLV) exhibited up to a 10-fold increase in cell surface expression of all three class I MHC antigens. Increases in MHC expression resulted in the increased susceptibility of M-MuLV-infected cells to lysis by allospecific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL). M-MuLV appears to exert its effect at the genomic level, because mRNA specific for class I antigens, as well as beta 2-microglobulin, show a fourfold increase. Fibroblasts infected with the Moloney sarcoma virus (MSV):M-MuLV complex show no increase in MHC antigen expression or class I mRNA synthesis, suggesting that co-infection with MSV inhibits M-MuLV enhancement of MHC gene expression. Quantitative differences in class I antigen expression on virus-infected cells were also found to influence the susceptibility of infected cells to lysis by H-2-restricted, virus-specific CTL. Differential lysis of infected cells expressing varied levels of class I antigens by M-MuLV-specific bulk CTL populations and CTL clones suggests that individual clones may have different quantitative requirements for class I antigen expression. The MSV inhibition of MHC expression could be reversed by interferon-gamma. Treatment of MSV:M-MuLV-infected fibroblasts with interferon-gamma increased their susceptibility to lysis by both allogeneic and syngeneic CTL. The data suggest that interferon-gamma may function in the host's immune response to viral infections by enhancing MHC antigen expression, thereby increasing the susceptibility of virus-infected cells to lysis by H-2-restricted, virus-specific CTL. 相似文献

Human herpesviruses utilize an impressive range of strategies to evade the immune system during their lytic replicative cycle, including reducing the expression of cell surface major histocompatibility complex (MHC) and immunostimulatory molecules required for recognition and lysis by virus-specific cytotoxic T cells. Study of possible immune evasion strategies by Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) in lytically infected cells has been hampered by the lack of an appropriate permissive culture model. Using two-color immunofluorescence staining of cell surface antigens and EBV-encoded lytic cycle antigens, we examined EBV-transformed B-cell lines in which a small subpopulation of cells had spontaneously entered the lytic cycle. Cells in the lytic cycle showed a four- to fivefold decrease in cell surface expression of MHC class I molecules relative to that in latently infected cells. Expression of MHC class II molecules, CD40, and CD54 was reduced by 40 to 50% on cells in the lytic cycle, while no decrease was observed in cell surface expression of CD19, CD80, and CD86. Downregulation of MHC class I expression was found to be an early-lytic-cycle event, since it was observed when progress through late lytic cycle was blocked by treatment with acyclovir. The immediate-early transactivator of the EBV lytic cycle, BZLF1, did not directly affect expression of MHC class I molecules. However, BZLF1 completely inhibited the upregulation of MHC class I expression mediated by the EBV cell-transforming protein, LMP1. This novel function of BZLF1 elucidates the paradox of how MHC class I expression can be downregulated when LMP1, which upregulates MHC class I expression in latent infection, remains expressed in the lytic cycle. 相似文献

Transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) has been implicated as having a role in inflammatory responses by inducing cellular infiltration and the release of inflammatory cytokines. In this study, the IEC-6 rat intestinal epithelial cell line was used as a model to assess the effect of TGF-beta 1 on the expression of various plasma membrane determinants. TGF-beta 1 induced a dose-dependent increase in the percentage of cells expressing surface secretory component (SC) and class I major histocompatibility (MHC) antigens. However, the expression of class II MHC was unaffected. In contrast, epidermal growth factor had no effect on any of the surface proteins studied. The TGF-beta 1-enhanced expression of SC was accompanied by an enhanced binding of polymeric, but not monomeric, immunoglobulin A (IgA). Preincubation of the TGF-beta 1-treated cells with an anti-human beta-galactosyltransferase (beta-GT) antiserum did not block the binding of the anti-SC antibody, indicating that the TGF-beta-induced increase in SC staining was due to SC expression and not the polymeric immunoglobulin-binding enzyme, beta-GT. These results indicate that TGF-beta 1 may be important in immune functions involving intestinal epithelial cells by enhancing the expression of surface class I MHC antigens and SC, a protein responsible for the transport of polymeric IgA into the intestinal lumen. 相似文献

Summary The γ-irradiation of normal cells causes an increased synthesis of specific proteins. However, few studies have described
the effects of high doses of irradiation on the expression of cell surface antigens in tumor cells. This study analyzed the
effects of high doses of γ-irradiation on the surface antigen expression of Major Histocompatability Complex (MHC) class I/II
and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-I) in human multiple myeloma (MM) cell lines ARP-1, ARK-RS, and 10 MM primary
tumors. The expression of surface antigens was evaluated by fluorescence-activated cell sorter analysis at different time
points, following the exposure to high doses of γ-irradiation. Doses of 10,000 and 15,000 cGy were no0105 sufficient to totally
block cell replication in both cell lines and primary tumors; cell replication was able to be inhibited completely only at
18,000 cGy. Lower doses (10,000 cGy) and lethal doses of irradiation (i.e., 15,000 and 18,000 cGy) increased the expression
of all surface antigens present on the cells before irradiation. Essentially, such upregulation was shown to be dose dependent,
with higher radiation doses resulting in higher antigen expression. Furthermore, when the kinetics of this upregulation were
studied 3 and 6 d after irradiation, there was a constant increase in antigen expression in MM cells. These findings suggest
that upregulation of costimulatory molecules, such as of MHC class I/II antigens and ICAM-1 molecules in MM patients treated
by γ-radiation, can increase the immunogenicity of the tumor cells. In light of these findings, radiotherapy combined with
immunotherapy might be considered in relapsing patients after receiving the standard treatment. 相似文献

Intrabodies (IB) are suitable tools to down-regulate the expression of cell surface molecules in general. In this work, the appearance of major histocompatibility (MHC) class I molecules on the cell surface could be prevented by the expression of intracellularly localized anti-MHC class I antibodies. The expression of MHC antigens presenting intracellularly synthetised peptides on the cell surface is the predominant reason for immunologic detection and rejection of allogeneic cell and tissue transplants. Allogeneic keratinocyte sheets might be a suitable tool for skin grafting. Within this study primary rat keratinocytes have been transfected with anti-MHC I-IB. Strong IB-expressing cells showed a MHC I "knockout" phenotype. The cells did not exhibit any significant alterations compared to non-transfected cells: the cell growth and the expression of other surface molecules were unaltered. Merely an enhanced intracellular accumulation of MHC I molecules could be detected. Notably, IB-expressing keratinocytes displayed a reduced susceptibility to allogeneic cytotoxic T cells in vitro compared to unmodified cells with a normal level of MHC I surface expression. These MHC I-deficient keratinocytes might be utilized in tissue-engineered allogeneic non-immunogeneic skin transplants. The principle of MHC class I manipulation in general can be used for other allogeneic cell and tissue-engineered transplants as well. 相似文献

Endothelial cell lines have been established from cells that were isolated from porcine yolk sacs from day 18 and day 22 embryos and propagated in vitro under various growth conditions. After expansion in vitro, the general properties of the cells proved similar for the different media used. The endothelial cells expressed cell surface receptors for acetylated low-density lipoprotein and also expressed cell surface-associated angiotensin-converting enzyme. The cells showed a characteristically high level of binding for Bandeiraea simplicifolia lectin I and Dolichos biflorus agglutinin but did not bind significant amounts of Ulex europaeus lectin I. The cells expressed low but serologically detectable levels of Class I major histocompatibility complex (MHC) antigens but failed to bind antibodies directed against Class II MHC antigens. Alpha5beta1 integrins were weakly expressed, whereas vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (CD106) and alphavbeta3 integrins were not detected. Three-dimensional tube formation was readily observed in cultures grown on Matrigel and occurred even in uncoated plastic dishes in the absence of Matrigel. In contrast to most of the adult porcine endothelial cells, yolk sac-derived endothelial cells did not possess serologically detectable receptors for porcine growth hormone (GH), an observation consistent with the finding that GH did not increase the proliferative rate of these cells. Electron microscopic examination demonstrated the presence of Weibel-Palade bodies, tight endothelial cell junctions, and typical rough endoplasmic reticulum. Exposure of the cells to either concanavalin-A-stimulated porcine splenocyte culture supernatants or to human tumor necrosis factor alpha did not cause upregulation of VCAM-1 or Class II MHC antigens. Addition of porcine interferon-gamma led to an increase in the level of expression of Class I MHC. Yolk sac endothelial cells from day 22 embryos showed a low but detectable level of expression of Class II MHC antigens, whereas the endothelial cells from day 18 embryos showed no expression of Class II antigens after interferon-gamma stimulation. The cells maintained competence to develop vascular structures in vitro and could do so after coinjection with murine tumor cells into adult, immunocompromised mice. 相似文献

Induction of class I and class II MHC antigen expression on murine bone marrow-derived macrophages by IL-4 (B cell stimulatory factor 1) 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

We have studied the effects of IL-4 (B cell stimulatory factor 1) on the expression of MHC gene products in normal bone marrow-derived macrophages, peritoneal macrophages, and the myelomonocytic cell line WEHI-3. Using both IL-4-containing T cell supernatant and rIL-4, we have observed significant induction of both class I and class II MHC surface expression (about 1.5- to 4-fold increase) in 2-, 3-, and 4-day cultures of bone marrow-derived macrophages. This induction was also apparent at the mRNA level as assessed by Northern blot analysis using A beta, E alpha, and class I probes. Kinetic analysis revealed that induction of class II mRNA by IL-4 was slower than induction by IFN-gamma, requiring 48 h before a significant increase was noted. The magnitude of MHC induction by IL-4 was not as great as that seen with IFN-gamma, which was found to increase surface expression of MHC antigens two- to eightfold. IL-4 also differs from IFN-gamma in the repertoire of macrophages responsive to it. IL-4 was unable to induce class I or class II expression in either thioglycolate-elicited peritoneal macrophages or WEHI-3 cells whereas IFN-gamma induced MHC antigen expression on both cell types under the same conditions. These data demonstrate that IL-4 is capable of inducing both class I and class II MHC gene products in some, but not all, macrophages. 相似文献

Interferon-gamma induces enhanced expression of Ia and H-2 antigens on B lymphoid, macrophage, and myeloid cell lines 总被引:25,自引:0,他引:25

The levels of class II major histocompatibility complex (MHC) antigens (la antigens) on cells of a cultured B lymphoma line (WEHI-279) were significantly increased after 24 hr incubation with medium conditioned by concanavalin A-stimulated mouse or rat spleen cells, or by an azobenzenearsonate- (ABA) specific T cell clone that had been stimulated with ABA-coupled spleen cells or concanavalin A. The levels and properties of the la-inducing activity correlated with those of interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) measured by inhibition of virus plaque formation. Both the la-inducing activity and the IFN-gamma from the T cell clone had an apparent m.w. of 40,000 determined by gel filtration, were sensitive to treatment with trypsin or exposure to pH 2, but were stable to heat (56 degrees C, 1 hr). The induction of la antigens on WEHI-279 cells was dose-dependent, and the maximum response occurred at a concentration corresponding to 1 to 2 U/ml of antiviral activity. This T cell-derived IFN-gamma-like molecule also increased the expression of cell surface la antigens on another B cell line (WEHI-231), and cell lines of macrophage (J774) and myeloid (WEHI-3B and WEHI-265) origin. Furthermore, in all cases the levels of class I MHC (H-2K or H-2D) antigens were also increased. Similar patterns of induction of Ia and H-2 antigens were obtained with supernatants containing IFN-gamma produced by a monkey cell line (COS) that had been transfected with a plasmid bearing the cloned murine IFN-gamma gene. This activity was sensitive to pH 2 and was not present in the supernatant from COS cells that were not transfected with the murine IFN-gamma gene. These results established that IFN-gamma is the T cell-derived molecule that induces the enhanced expression of Ia and H-2 antigens on B cells and macrophages. A major physiologic role of IFN-gamma may be to regulate immune function through the enhanced expression of MHC antigens. 相似文献

Major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II proteins (HLA-DR, HLA-DP and HLA-DQ) play a fundamental role in the regulation of the immune response. The level of expression of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class II antigens is regulated by interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) and depends on the status of class II trans-activator protein (CIITA), a co-activator of the MHC class II gene promoter. In this study, we measured levels of constitutive and IFN-gamma-induced expression of MHC class II molecules, analysed the expression of CIITA and investigated the association between MHC class II transactivator polymorphism and expression of different MHC class II molecules in a large panel of melanoma cell lines obtained from the European Searchable Tumour Cell Line Database. Many cell lines showed no constitutive expression of HLA-DP, HLA-DQ and HLA-DR and no IFN-gamma-induced increase in HLA class II surface expression. However, in some cases, IFN-gamma treatment led to enhanced surface expression of HLA-DP and HLA-DR. HLA-DQ was less frequently expressed under basal conditions and was less frequently induced by IFN-gamma. In these melanoma cell lines, constitutive surface expression of HLA-DR and HLA-DP was higher than that of HLA-DQ. In addition, high constitutive level of cell surface expression of HLA-DR was correlated with lower inducibility of this expression by IFN-gamma. Finally, substitution A-->G in the 5' flanking region of CIITA promoter type III was associated with higher expression of constitutive HLA-DR (p<0.005). This study yielded a panel of melanoma cell lines with different patterns of constitutive and IFN-gamma-induced expression of HLA class II that can be used in future studies of the mechanisms of regulation of HLA class II expression. 相似文献

By varying growth conditions, we identified a novel mechanism of autocrine regulation of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I gene expression by induction of beta interferon gene expression in transformed BALB/c-3T3 cells. Low-serum conditions enhanced MHC class I antigen expression in v-rasKi- and v-mos-transformed BALB/c-3T3 cells but not in untransformed BALB/c-3T3 cells. Transformed and untransformed cells grown under standard serum conditions (10% bovine calf serum) expressed similar cell surface levels of MHC class I antigens. However, low-serum conditions (0.5% bovine calf serum) induced four- to ninefold increases in cell surface levels of MHC class I antigens in both v-rasKi- and v-mos-transformed cells but not in untransformed cells. These increases in MHC class I gene expression were seen at both the mRNA and cell surface protein levels and involved not only the heavy-chain component of the class I antigens but also beta 2 microglobulin. Beta 1 interferon mRNA and beta interferon-inducible 2',5'-oligoadenylate synthetase mRNA were induced by growth under low-serum conditions in transformed BALB/c-3T3 cells, and antibodies to beta interferon blocked the induction of MHC class I antigen expression by serum deprivation in these cells. These results demonstrate that growth under low-serum conditions leads to induction of beta interferon expression in oncogene-transformed cells which then directly mediates autocrine enhancement of MHC class I gene expression. 相似文献

MHC class I antigens as surface markers of adult erythrocytes during the metamorphosis of Xenopus 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
An alloantiserum produced against Xenopus MHC class I antigens has been used to distinguish different erythrocyte populations at metamorphosis. By analysis using a fluorescence-activated cell sorter (FACS) analyzer, tadpole (stage 55) and adult erythrocytes have distinct volume differences and tadpole cells have no MHC antigens on the cell surface. Both tadpole and adult erythrocytes express a "mature erythrocyte" antigen marker, recognized by its monoclonal antibody (F1F6). During metamorphosis, immature erythrocytes, at various stages of differentiation, which express adult levels of cell-surface MHC antigens by 12 days after tail resorption, are found in the bloodstream. These immature cells are biosynthetically active, produce adult hemoglobin, and mature by 60 days after the completion of metamorphosis. Percoll gradient-density fractionation has shown that all of the cells in the new erythrocyte series express adult levels of MHC antigens but there is only a gradual increase in the amount of "mature erythrocyte" antigen. Tadpole erythrocytes, which are biosynthetically active during larval stages, produce small amounts of surface MHC antigens before the metamorphic climax and then become metabolically inactive. They are completely cleared from the circulation by 60 days after metamorphosis. Erythrocytes from tadpoles arrested in their development for long periods of time express intermediate levels of MHC antigens, suggesting a "leaky" expression of these molecules in the tadpole cells. The most abundant erythrocyte cell-surface proteins from tadpoles and adults, as judged by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, are very different. 相似文献

Augmentation of MHC class I antigen presentation via heat shock protein expression by hyperthermia 总被引:13,自引:0,他引:13

Heat shock proteins are recognized as significant participants in immune reactions. In this study, we have demonstrated that the cell surface presentation of MHC class I antigen was increased in tandem with increased heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) expression and the immunogenicity of rat T-9 glioma cells was enhanced by hyperthermia. T-9 cells showed growth inhibition for 24 h after the heat treatment at 43 degrees C for 1 h in vitro, but then resumed a normal growth rate. HSP70 expression reached a maximum at 24 h after heating. Flow cytometric analysis revealed a significant increase in MHC class I antigen on the surface of the heated cells. The augmentation of MHC class I surface expression started 24 h after heating and reached a maximum 48 h after heating. The expression of other immunologic mediators, such as intracellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and MHC class II antigens, did not increase. In an in vivo experiment using immunocompetent syngeneic rats (F344), growth of the heated T-9 cells, with augmentation of MHC class I antigen surface expression, was significantly inhibited, while the cells grew progressively in nude rats (F344/N Jcl-rnu). Furthermore, compared with lymphocytes from non-immunized (PBS only injection) rats or rats injected with non-heated T-9 cells, the splenic lymphocytes of the rats in which the heated T-9 cells were injected displayed specific cytotoxicity against T-9 cells. These results suggest that HSP70 is an important modulator of tumor cell immunogenicity, and that hyperthermic treatment of tumor cells can induce the host antitumor immunity via the expression of HSP70. These results may benefit further efforts on developing novel cancer immunotherapies based on hyperthermia. 相似文献

Polymorphic class II (Ia) major histocompatibility complex (MHC) gene products associate intracytoplasmically with a third nonpolymorphic class II molecule, the invariant chain (Ii), which is encoded by gene(s) unlinked to the MHC. Although the role of the Ii chain in the expression of cell surface Ia molecules is unclear, it has been suggested that the Ii chain helps in the assembly and intracellular transport of class II antigens. In this study, we demonstrate that the murine polymorphic class II antigens of an interspecies mouse-human hybrid, which has segregated the murine invariant chain gene, associates with the human invariant chain gene intracytoplasmically. The murine Ia antigens are expressed on the cell surface and can function as restriction elements in antigen presentation to T cells. The biochemical analysis demonstrates that the regions of the Ii gene that are critical to its interaction with Ia molecules are conserved between species. 相似文献

Purpose The efficient identification of peptide antigens recognized by ovarian cancer-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) requires
the use of well-characterized ovarian cancer cell lines. To develop such a panel of cell lines, 11 ovarian cancer cell lines
were characterized for the expression of class I and class II major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-encoded molecules, 15
tumor antigens, and immunosuppressive cytokines [transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) and IL-10].
Methods Class I MHC gene expression was determined by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and class I and class II MHC protein expression
was determined by flow cytometry. Tumor antigen expression was determined by a combination of polymerase chain reaction (PCR)
and flow cytometry. Cytokine expression was determined by ELISA.
Results Each of the ovarian cancer cell lines expresses cytokeratins, although each cell line does not express the same cytokeratins.
One of the lines expresses CD90, which is associated with a fibroblast lineage. Each of the cell lines expresses low to moderate
amounts of class I MHC molecules, and several of them express low to moderate amounts of class II MHC molecules. Using a combination
of PCR and flow cytometry, it was determined that each cell line expressed between six and thirteen of fifteen antigens tested.
Little to no TGF-β3 was produced by any of the cell lines, TGF-β1 was produced by three of the cell lines, TGF-β2 was produced
by all of the cell lines, with four of the cell lines producing large amounts of the latent form of the molecule, and IL-10
was produced by one of the cell lines.
Conclusions Each of the 11 ovarian cancer lines is characterized by a unique expression pattern of epithelial/fibroblast markers, MHC
molecules, tumor antigens, and immunosuppressive cytokines. Knowledge of these unique expression patterns will increase the
usefulness of these cell lines in identifying the antigens recognized by ovarian cancer-specific CTL. 相似文献

Differential expression of the major histocompatibility antigen complex (MHC) on a series of Burkitt's lymphoma lines 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
We compared the expressions of class I and class II major histocompatibility antigen complex (MHC) on the surface of Jijoye and P3HR-1 cells of Burkitt's lymphoma sublines. Jijoye cells had a large amount of class I and class II MHC antigens, whereas these antigens were less expressed on P3HR-1 cells. On a subline of P3HR-1 K cells the expression of class I antigen markedly diminished and class II antigen was undetectable. On the other hand, Jijoye, P3HR-1, and P3HR-1 K cell lines were confirmed to be Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) nonproducer, low producer, and high producer, respectively. The chemical activation of EBV genome by treating P3HR-1 cells with 12-O-tetradecanoyl phorbol-13 acetate (TPA) and n-butyrate resulted in inhibition of the expression of class I and II antigens, while the addition of retinoic acid, an inhibitor of virus replication, blocked the decrease in the MHC antigen expression. These findings suggested that there might be an inverse correlation between the virus production and the expression of class I and II MHC antigens. 相似文献

MHC II in Dendritic Cells is Targeted to Lysosomes or T Cell-Induced Exosomes Via Distinct Multivesicular Body Pathways 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Dendritic cells (DCs) express major histocompatibility complex class II (MHC II) to present peptide antigens to T cells. In immature DCs, which bear low cell surface levels of MHC II, peptide-loaded MHC II is ubiquitinated. Ubiquitination drives the endocytosis and sorting of MHC II to the luminal vesicles of multivesicular bodies (MVBs) for lysosomal degradation. Ubiquitination of MHC II is abrogated in activated DCs, resulting in an increased cell surface expression. We here provide evidence for an alternative MVB sorting mechanism for MHC II in antigen-loaded DCs, which is triggered by cognately interacting antigen-specific CD4+ T cells. At these conditions, DCs generate MVBs with MHC II and CD9 carrying luminal vesicles that are secreted as exosomes and transferred to the interacting T cells. Sorting of MHC II into exosomes was, in contrast to lysosomal targeting, independent of MHC II ubiquitination but rather correlated with its incorporation into CD9 containing detergent-resistant membranes. Together, these data indicate two distinct MVB pathways: one for lysosomal targeting and the other for exosome secretion. 相似文献
