Antibody secreting B lymphocytes from immunized donors can be adoptively transferred after T cell-depleted marrow transplantation to produce protective levels of antibody in the recipient. We have investigated whether these transferred lymphocytes remain subject to continued clonal selection and subsequently became memory B cells even in the initial absence of T cells. Twenty-eight donor/recipient pairs were randomized pretransplant to be immunized or not with tetanus toxoid (TT). The recipients were then vaccinated with TT at 3, 6, and 12 mo posttransplant, and the anti-TT antibody response (IgG and IgM) was measured. Only when both donor and recipient were immunized pretransplant could the recipient respond to antigen challenge within the first year posttransplant. Examination of the spectrotype pattern of the recipient anti-TT antibody shows that selection of B cell clones continues, so that T cell depletion does not prevent the appearance of oligoclonal antibody responses. However, because the spectrotype pattern of the recipient did not match the donors, B cell regulatory mechanisms in donor and recipient are nonidentical. These data contrast with observations made in recipients of non-T cell-depleted marrow and serve to illustrate the role of T lymphocytes in the induction and regulation of secondary antibody responses in man. The results also suggest that optimal humoral responses to any antigen after T cell depletion can only occur when both donor and recipient are immunized pretransplant, a prediction borne out by studies on the influence of donor cytomegalovirus status on the severity of cytomegalovirus infection in the recipient. 相似文献

Immune, hyperimmune, and nonimmune serum samples were collected from inbred rats following 10 to 15 weeks of one [5 metacercariae (mc)/rat], two (5 mc followed by 30 mc/rat) or no (uninfected) exposure to Fasciola hepatica. Lymphoid cells also were collected from these donors. Inbred, naive rats in groups receiving immune serum, hyperimmune serum, nonimmune serum (serum control), immune cells, hyperimmune cells, and nonimmune cells (cell control) received intraperitoneally either a total of 20 ml of serum or a total of 3 x 10(8) viable lymphoid cells. A challenge infection of 30 mc/rat was administered orally at about the time of serum or cell transfer. The transfer of immunity was evaluated by examining recipient rats for parasites 4 and 8 weeks after challenge. Some hematological parameters and the precipitating antibody response of the recipients were monitored also. Hyperimmune serum, unlike immune serum, consistently provided a significant degree of protection in recipient rats. The precipitating antibody titre of this serum was higher than that obtained from the immune donor group. The importance of a second sensitization to obtain sufficiently potent serum was demonstrated. Lymphoid cells from infected donors did not consistently confer protection on recipients. Thus, the expression of protective immunity against F. hepatica seemed to be more dependent on the presence of antibodies than on cells. The hematological parameters of the recipients, in general, supported this observation. The precipitating-antibody response of protected rats was lower than that of unprotected animals following challenge, presumably because the development of fewer worms in the former provided less antigenic stimulation. 相似文献

Accumulated evidence demonstrates the existence of bone marrow-derived cells origin in the endometria of women undergoing bone marrow transplantation (BMT). In these reports, cells of a bone marrow (BM) origin are able to differentiate into endometrial cells, although their contribution to endometrial regeneration is not yet clear. We have previously demonstrated the functional relevance of side population (SP) cells as the endogenous source of somatic stem cells (SSC) in the human endometrium. The present work aims to understand the presence and contribution of bone marrow-derived cells to the endometrium and the endometrial SP population of women who received BMT from male donors. Five female recipients with spontaneous or induced menstruations were selected and their endometrium was examined for the contribution of XY donor-derived cells using fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH), telomapping and SP method investigation. We confirm the presence of XY donor-derived cells in the recipient endometrium ranging from 1.7% to 2.62%. We also identify 0.45-0.85% of the donor-derived cells in the epithelial compartment displaying CD9 marker, and 1.0-1.83% of the Vimentin-positive XY donor-derived cells in the stromal compartment. Although the percentage of endometrial SP cells decreased, possibly being due to chemotherapy applied to these patients, they were not formed by XY donor-derived cells, donor BM cells were not associated with the stem cell (SC) niches assessed by telomapping technique, and engraftment percentages were very low with no correlation between time from transplant and engraftment efficiency, suggesting random terminal differentiation. In conclusion, XY donor-derived cells of a BM origin may be considered a limited exogenous source of transdifferentiated endometrial cells rather than a cyclic source of BM donor-derived stem cells. 相似文献

Antibody responses to recall vaccines can be adoptively transferred after marrow transplantation in man. Transfer of responses to priming Ag has not been successful, although this would broaden the range of organisms to which recipients could be protected. To investigate the importance of T cells and Ag in such transfer we primed marrow donors with keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) 1 or 3 wk before marrow harvesting. B cells secreting IgM and IgG anti-KLH antibody were present in donor marrow at both 1 and 3 wk after immunization. After T cell depletion, donor marrow was infused into chemo-irradiated recipients, half of whom were immunized pretransplant with KLH. We found no evidence for the transfer of the IgM component of the response. Clonal expansion of the transferred IgG antibody-secreting cells with a corresponding rise in recipient serum IgG antibody levels was seen only when donors were primed 3 wk before marrow harvest and when the recipients were also immunized. IEF and immunoblotting demonstrated that successful transfer coincided with maturation of the IgG primary response from a polyclonal to an oligoclonal pattern and confirmed that donor oligoclonal bands appeared in the recipient serum. We conclude that the immunization protocols required for the transfer of antibody responses to priming Ag reflect the initial dependence of unprimed B cells on T cell help and on prolonged Ag stimulation. Ag-stimulated primary B cells in T cell-depleted marrow respond only to the noncognate growth and differentiation signals available in the chemo-irradiated recipient after an initial period of clonal selection and expansion in the donor which is both T cell and Ag dependent. Even after this initial selection, continued expansion of antibody-secreting clones in recipients retains an absolute dependence on Ag stimulation. Immunization techniques to protect transplant recipients against organisms such as Pseudomonas and CMV may need to be modified accordingly. 相似文献

Donor NK cells could promote engraftment by suppressing host alloreactive responses during allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (allo-BMT). The biological activity of NK cells could be significantly enhanced by IL-15. The current study attempted to evaluate the effect of donor NK cells and IL-15 administration on engraftment and immune reconstitution in a murine nonmyeloablative allo-BMT model. Mice infused with donor NK cells and treated with IL-15 during nonmyeloablative allo-BMT resulted in increased donor engraftment compared with either treatment alone. The number of donor-derived cell subsets also increased in the spleen of the recipient mice with combination treatment. The alloreactivity to donor type Ags was significantly reduced in the recipient mice with donor NK cell infusion and IL-15 treatment, which was manifested by decreased proliferation and IL-2 secretion of splenocytes from recipient mice in response to donor type Ags in MLR and decreased capacity of the splenocytes killing donor type tumor targets. We subsequently exposed recipient mice to reduced irradiation conditioning and showed that donor NK cell infusion and hydrodynamic injection-mediated IL-15 expression could synergistically promote donor engraftment and suppress alloreactivity during nonmyeloablative allo-BMT. Infusion of CFSE-labeled donor CD45.1(+) NK cells demonstrated that IL-15 could enhance the infused donor NK cell proliferation and function in vivo. IL-15 treatment also promoted donor bone marrow-derived NK cell development and function. Thus, donor NK cell infusion and IL-15 treatment could synergistically promote the engraftment and the development of donor-derived cell subsets and suppress the host alloresponse in a murine nonmyeloablative allo-BMT model. 相似文献

To assess the significance of somatic point mutation in the hyperimmune response to the hapten NP, an in vivo enrichment procedure was followed. Mice that expressed high titers of B1-8 idiotopic determinants were selected as donors for serial transfer of small numbers of immune spleen cells into syngeneic irradiated recipient mice. Cells expressing B1-8 idiotopic determinants were chosen for enrichment because B1-8 cross-reactive determinants constitute a significant portion of the primary response. Furthermore, B1-8 is a monoclonal antibody derived from a primary response to NP, and its heavy and light chains are unmutated products of the germ-line genes VH186.2 and VL lambda 1, respectively. The germ-line sequence is thus available for comparison with the somatic mutants that arise during enrichment and hyperimmunization. The data show that serial transfer of spleen cells from mice with a high titer of idiotypic determinants results in a dramatic decrease in the titers of antibodies that bind antigen. Three lines of evidence indicate that progeny cells from the initial lambda-positive, idiotype-bearing, antigen-binding cells are successfully transferred and expanded during successive adoptive transfers. First, the proportion of lambda-bearing antibodies relative to NP-specific lambda-bearing antibodies increases with transfer, which is consistent with mutation away from antigen binding. Second, analysis of serum antibodies and hybridoma proteins derived from transfer-recipient mice confirm the presence of idiotype-positive antibodies that do not bind antigen. Third, RNA dot blot analysis of hybridomas constructed from a recipient mouse in the fourth transfer indicates a high frequency of expression of the VH gene predominantly used in the NP response. Many of the antibodies expressed by these hybridomas not only do not bind antigen, but have also lost the determinants recognized by the anti-idiotypic reagents. Most of these VH-positive hybridomas express lambda L chain. The most likely interpretation of the data is that somatic mutation is occurring during the hyperimmune response. Because we selected donor mice that expressed a high titer of idiotype-positive, antigen-specific antibody and immunized the recipient mice, we expected to observe a selective expansion of somatic variants that bound antigen. This was not the case. The observed loss of antigen binding suggests that the majority of mutations arising result in antibodies with lower affinity for the immunizing antigen. 相似文献

The evolution of MHC restrictions in antigen recognition by T cells in a haploidentical bone marrow transplant recipient 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
We have longitudinally followed the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) restrictions that govern the response of T lymphocytes to specific Ag in a child with severe combined immunodeficiency who was successfully transplanted by using T cell depleted haploidentical maternal bone marrow cells and immunized shortly afterwards with tetanus toxoid (TT) Ag. In the first year post-transplant, monocytes were of both donor and recipient origin whereas T and B cells were of donor origin. Three years after transplant, all monocytes and T and B cells were of donor origin. T lymphocytes taken from the child at that time and depleted in vitro of alloreactivity to paternal Ag proliferated in response to TT presented by maternal as well as paternal monocytes. A TT-specific T cell line established from these cells in the presence of maternal monocytes cooperated with maternal but not with paternal monocytes, whereas a TT-specific T cell line established in the presence of paternal monocytes cooperated with paternal but not with maternal monocytes and with monocytes derived from a paternal uncle who shared the haplotype inherited by the recipient from her father. These results show that long-term memory T cells restricted to recipient MHC Ag not shared with the bone marrow donor continue to circulate long after the disappearance of accessory cells of recipient origin. These T cells could potentially participate in a secondary immune response because they were shown to recognize TT presented by recipient fibroblasts induced to express class II MHC molecules following treatment with IFN-gamma. 相似文献

Cellular events during the development of thymic lymphomas in young B10.BR mice given leukemogenic split-dose irradiation were studied by examining the differentiation of functional T lymphocyte precursors in the regenerating thymus. It was found that leukemogenic radiation treatment resulted in a sustained depression of the level of thymic cytotoxic T lymphocyte precursors (CTLp) and of mixed lymphocyte reactivity of thymus cells when assessed between 1 and 4 mo after irradiation, in spite of the fact that the total number of thymocytes was restored to the normal level within 2 mo and continued to increase thereafter. In vitro mixing studies of normal thymocytes with thymus cells from split-dose irradiated mice provided no evidence for active suppression as a mechanism for this depressed activity. The ability of bone marrow cells from split-dose irradiated mice to regenerate the thymus and to differentiate into functional CTLp was examined by use of supralethally irradiated Thy-1 congenic recipients. Reconstitution of supralethally irradiated B10.BR Thy-1.2 mice with normal bone marrow from B10.BR Thy-1.1 mice resulted in the complete repopulation of host-thymus with donor-derived cells when assessed at 4 wk after reconstitution. Lymphocytes from the regenerating thymus of these animals were shown to contain high levels of CTLp which were donor-derived. On the other hand, when the recipient mice were reconstituted with bone marrow cells from donor mice which had been split-dose irradiated 1 mo earlier, regeneration of the recipient thymus was severely depressed when assessed at 4 wk to 3 mo after reconstitution. Although variable but small numbers of donor-derived Thy-1+ cells were detected, CTL activity for alloantigen could not be induced in these donor-derived cells. The results suggest that T cell precursors derived from split-dose irradiated donor mice were unable to undergo active proliferation and differentiation into functional CTLp. The significance of these findings on radiation-induced thymic leukemogenesis is discussed. 相似文献

Passive protective activities of three different classes of monoclonal antibodies in mice against challenge with strain ATCC 31432 (capsular type I) of Staphylococcus epidermidis were examined. Monoclonal IgM antibody passively protected mice against challenge with the homologous strain, whereas monoclonal IgG1 and IgG2b antibodies did not. The protective activity of IgM was absorbed by the cell surface antigen extracted from the homologous strain but not by the antigen from heterologous strains. Rapid reduction of viable cells took place in the peritoneal cavity of mice immunized with monoclonal IgM as early as 6 h after the challenge with the homologous strain. An enzyme-linked immunosorbent inhibition assay showed there was remarkable inhibition with the homologous cell surface antigen but not with heterologous preparations from other strains. Results suggest that in the mouse the major passive protection against the S. epidermidis strain is provided by the IgM antibody to the cell surface antigen. 相似文献

The effect of anti-Thy-1 monoclonal antibodies on murine mixed lymphocyte reactions and concanavalin A-induced mitogenesis were investigated. It is demonstrated that rat antibodies against nonpolymorphic determinants of the murine Thy-1 antigen inhibited cell proliferation in the absence of complement. In contrast, antibodies against polymorphic determinants of Thy-1 had no effect on T cell activation. Inhibition of T cell proliferation did not depend on the isotype of the blocking antibody, because both IgM and IgG antibodies against monomorphic determinants were inhibitory, whereas IgM or IgG antibodies against allotypic determinants were inactive. In addition, the blocking activity could not be attributed to the xenogeneic (rat) origin of the antibodies to nonpolymorphic Thy-1 determinants, because rat anti-Thy-1.2 antibodies had no effect on cell activation. Thus, the efficacy of anti-Thy-1 antibodies as T cell inhibitors was determined by the antibody specificity. The suppressive mechanism of anti-Thy-1 antibodies was effective throughout the entire course of mixed lymphocyte reactions. Addition of antibodies at any time point during the first 90 hr of a 120-hr mixed lymphocyte culture resulted in significant suppression of the proliferative response. However, in some cases an early enhancement preceded suppression of the response. The modulation of proliferative responses by anti-Thy-1 did not result from a nonspecific mitogenic effect of the antibodies on T lymphocytes, because no effects were observed when antibodies were added to responder cells alone. These results suggest that the Thy-1 molecule, or a molecule that is located on the cell membrane in close proximity to the Thy-1 antigen, is involved in the activation of T lymphocytes. 相似文献

Ia restriction specificity involved in T cell proliferative responses to keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) has been analyzed using a variety of allogeneic bone marrow chimeras. The chimeric mice were prepared by reconstituting irradiated AKR, SJL, B10.BR and B10.A(4R) mice with bone marrow cells from B10 mice. When such chimeric mice had first been primed with KLH in complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA), T cells from H-2 incompatible fully allogeneic chimeras showed significantly higher responses to KLH in the presence of antigen-presenting cells (APC) of donor strain (B10) than APC of recipient strain. However, in H-2 subregion compatible chimeras, [B10→B10.A(4R)], which were matched at the H-2D locus and at minor histocompatible loci, the T cells could mount vigorous responses to KLH with antigen-presenting cells (APC) of either donor or recipient type. The same results were obtained as well with chimeras that had been thymectomized after full reconstitution of lymphoid tissues by donor-derived cells. A considerable proportion of KLH-specific T cell hybridomas established from [B10→B10.A(4R)] chimeras exhibited both I-Ab and I-Ak restriction specificities. The present findings indicate that the bias to donor Ia type of antigen specific T cells is determined by donor-derived APC present in the extrathymic environment but that cross-reactivity to the recipient Ia is influenced to some degree by histocompatibility between donor and recipient mice, even though the histocompatible H-2D locus and minor histocompatibility loci seem not to be directly involved in the I-A restricted responses studied herein. 相似文献

This study was carried out to elucidate whether primordial germ cells, obtained from embryonic blood and transferred into partially sterilized male and female recipient embryos, could differentiate into functional gametes and give rise to viable offspring. Manipulated embryos were cultured until hatching and the chicks were raised until maturity, when they were mated. When the sex of the donor primordial germ cells and the recipient embryo was the same, 15 out of 22 male chimaeric chickens (68.2%) and 10 out of 16 female chimaeric chickens (62.5%) produced donor-derived offspring. When the sex of the donor primordial germ cells and the recipient embryo was different, 4 out of 18 male chimaeric chickens (22.2%) and 2 out of 18 female chimaeric chickens (11.1%) produced donor-derived offspring. The rates of donor-derived offspring from the chimaeric chickens were 0.6-40.0% in male donor and male recipient and 0.4-34.9% in female donor and female recipient. However, the rates of donor-derived offspring from the chimaeric chickens were 0.4-0.9% in male donor and female recipient and 0.1-0.3% in female donor and male recipient. The presence of W chromosome-specific repeating sequences was detected in the sperm samples of male chimaeric chickens produced by transfer of female primordial germ cells. These results indicate that primordial germ cells isolated from embryonic blood can differentiate into functional gametes giving rise to viable offspring in the gonads of opposite-sex recipient embryos and chickens, although the efficiency was very low. 相似文献

Tolerance to allograft antigen is the major challenge and final goal of transplant medicine. Our previous study demonstrated that thioredoxin-1 (Trx) priming of donor lung significantly protected allogeneic lung graft. To determine whether Trx priming of donor lung inhibits allograft rejection, extends allograft survival and induces immune tolerance, orthotopic left lung transplantation was performed from Lewis to Sprague-Dawley rats without immunosuppression. Donor lungs were primed with Trx at 4°C for 4 hr prior to transplantation. After up to 37 days post-transplantation, allograft lung morphology, recipient T cell and humoral alloantigen-specific immune responses were examined. We found that Trx-primed lungs exhibited much reduced acute rejection and associated lung injuries resulting in loss of graft functional area at 5-37 days post-transplant in contrast to the control groups. CD4+ T cells from the recipients with Trx-primed grafts responded to the stimulation of dendritic cells (DCs) of donor origin, in contrast to DCs from the third party, with significantly reduced proliferation. Consistent with above findings, we observed that CD4+Foxp3+ regulatory T cells in spleen cells from the recipients with Trx-primed grafts were significantly increased compared to controls, and CD4+ T cells from the recipients with Trx-primed grafts produced much higher levels of immunosuppressive cytokine, IL-10 when stimulated with allogeneic donor DCs. In addition, humoral immune tolerance was also induced as there was no significant increase levels of serum antibodies against donor antigens in Trx-lung recipients when re-challenged with allogeneic donor antigens. Our results demonstrate that one-time Trx-priming of donor lung grafts prior to transplantation significantly prolongs the survival of the grafts through inducing or promoting cellular and humoral alloantigen-specific immune tolerance, which might be associated with the induction of immunosuppressive regulatory T cells. 相似文献

Transplantation of germ cells from rabbits and dogs into mouse testes. 总被引:23,自引:0,他引:23
Spermatogonial stem cells of a fertile mouse transplanted into the seminiferous tubules of an infertile mouse can develop spermatogenesis and transmit the donor haplotype to progeny of the recipient mouse. When testis cells from rats or hamsters were transplanted to the testes of immunodeficient mice, complete rat or hamster spermatogenesis occurred in the recipient mouse testes, albeit with lower efficiency for the hamster. The objective of the present study was to investigate the effect of increasing phylogenetic distance between donor and recipient animals on the outcome of spermatogonial transplantation. Testis cells were collected from donor rabbits and dogs and transplanted into testes of immunodeficient recipient mice in which endogenous spermatogenesis had been destroyed. In separate experiments, rabbit or dog testis cells were frozen and stored in liquid nitrogen or cultured for 1 mo before transplantation to mice. Recipient testes were analyzed, using donor-specific polyclonal antibodies, from 1 to >12 mo after transplantation for the presence of donor germ cells. In addition, the presence of canine cells in recipient testes was demonstrated by polymerase chain reaction using primers specific for canine alpha-satellite DNA. Donor germ cells were present in the testes of all but one recipient. Donor germ cells predominantly formed chains and networks of round cells connected by intercellular bridges, but later stages of donor-derived spermatogenesis were not observed. The pattern of colonization after transplantation of cultured cells did not resemble spermatogonial proliferation. These results indicate that fresh and cryopreserved germ cells can colonize the mouse testis but do not differentiate beyond the stage of spermatogonial expansion. 相似文献

Primate spermatogonial stem cells colonize mouse testes 总被引:17,自引:0,他引:17
In mice, transplantation of spermatogonial stem cells from a fertile male to the seminiferous tubules of an infertile recipient male results in progeny with donor-derived haplotype. Attempts to extend this approach by transplanting human testis cells to mice have led to conflicting claims that no donor germ cells persisted or that human spermatozoa were produced in the recipient. To examine this issue we used the baboon, a primate in which testis cell populations of several ages could be obtained for transplantation, and demonstrate that donor spermatogonial stem cells readily establish germ cell colonies in recipient mice, which exist for periods of at least 6 mo. However, differentiation of germ cells toward the lumen of the tubule and production of spermatozoa did not occur. The presence of baboon spermatogonial stem cells and undifferentiated spermatogonia in mouse seminiferous tubules for long periods after transplantation indicates that antigens, growth factors, and signaling molecules that are necessary for interaction of these cells and the testis environment have been preserved for 100 million years of evolutionary separation. Because germ cell differentiation and spermatogenesis did not occur, the molecules necessary for this process appear to have undergone greater divergence between baboon and mouse. 相似文献

In vitro induction of anti-DNP IgE as well as IgG1, IgG2a antibody responses was shown in murine spleen cell culture. Spleen cells primed three times with 1 mug of DNP-OA or DNP-Asc produced significant amounts of anti-DNP IgE as well as IgG antibodies by the in vitro stimulation with DNP-OA or DNP-Asc, respectively. Collaboration between DNP-primed B cells and carrier-primed T cells was required for the induction of both IgE and IgG antibodies with DNP-coupled T-dependent antigen. Carrier-specific T cells induced with a low dose of Asc (0.01 mug) showed helper function only on IgE antibody response, whereas T cells primed with a higher dose of Asc (10 mug) cooperated only with IgG-B cells. T cells primed with Asc in CFA showed helper function mainly on IgG antibody response but not on IgE antibody response. The result indicated the presence of a distinct population of T helper cells for IgE and IgG antibody responses. T-independent antigen (DNP-Ficoll) induced both anti-DNP IgE and IgG antibody responses in DNP-primed spleen cell population without the requirement of the collaboration of helper T cells. 相似文献

The ability of the calcium ionophore A23187 to release slow reacting substance of anaphylaxis (SRA-A) from human leukocytes was studied. About 25 times more SRS-A activity was released from aliquots of leukocytes by ionophore stimulation than by antigen stimulation, although comparable amounts of histamine were released. Cell separation studies revealed that granulocytes other than basophils were also capable of releasing SRS-A. The contractile activity released after challenge with ionophore appeared physicochemically identical to the SRS-A of rat or human origin released by antigen challenge in terms of its stability to base hydrolysis, inactivation by arylsulfatase, and chromatographic behavior on silicic acid and Sephadex LH-20 columns. We suggest that some mediators of allergic reactions previously associated, in man, only with antigen-IgE antibody interaction on mast cells or basophils may be released by other stimuli and from other cell types. 相似文献

Experimental host versus graft (HVG) disease is the fatal immunodeficiency syndrome which is induced in susceptible strains of inbred mice by the perinatal inoculation of related F1 hybrid spleen cells. The allogenic HVG reaction results in severe T-cell depletion, but hyperplasia of B cells, of which some are F1 donor in origin. To investigate the role of F1 donor B cells in the development of hyperglobulinemia in HVG mice which respond poorly to primary antigenic challenge, antibodies to horseradish peroxidase (HRP) of (T6 x RFM)F1 donor B-cell origin were used as markers for the engraftment of primed donor B cells in RFM hosts, and as sequential measures of the allogenic reaction on them. F1 donor B cells sensitized to HRP survived different stages of the HVG reaction after inoculation on Day 1 or Day 8 after birth. Tests for the anti-HRP antibody output of RFM host cells, and engrafted HRP-primed and unprimed (T6 x RFM)F1 donor cells suggested that the hyperglobulinemia seen in HVG mice was caused principally by antigen-primed, F1 donor B cells stimulated by the allogenic effect, with or without further exposure to the antigen(s) to which the donors had been sensitized prior to transplantation. The poor primary responses were attributed to the engraftment of the many donor B cells already committed, to the immunological immaturity of the host B cells, and to the lack of T-cell help for adult unprimed F1 donor B cells. Taken together with previous work, the data also suggest that antigen-primed donor B cells were engrafted in preference to equally histoincompatible donor T cells and unprimed donor B cells. 相似文献

In vitro stimulation of human lymphocytes were studied in connection with cell fusion. When splenic lymphocytes were stimulated with human cytomegalovirus (CMV), they produced IgG but not IgM antibody against CMV. The stimulation with 50 ng/ml of CMV antigen induced the maximum antibody response, and higher concentrations of CMV antigen decreased antibody response and increased nonspecific IgG production. Human splenic lymphocytes were stimulated for 6 days with CMV antigen (50 ng/ml) and/or B-cell growth factor (BCGF), and then fused with mouse myeloma cells. Stimulation with a combination of antigen and BCGF were able to generate CMV-specific hybridomas synergistically. Two of these hybridomas were cloned by limiting dilution. The human monoclonal antibodies produced by them, C1 and C23, bound to CMV but not to other herpesviruses. C23 neutralized virus infectivity C1 did not at all. This method for generation of hybridomas producing human monoclonal antibodies against a predefined antigen may be applicable to a variety of viral antigens. 相似文献

Mixed chimerism and donor-specific tolerance are achieved in mice receiving 3 Gy of total body irradiation and anti-CD154 mAb followed by allogeneic bone marrow (BM) transplantation. In this model, recipient CD4 cells are critically important for CD8 tolerance. To evaluate the role of CD4 cells recognizing donor MHC class II directly, we used class II-deficient donor marrow and were not able to achieve chimerism unless recipient CD8 cells were depleted, indicating that directly alloreactive CD4 cells were necessary for CD8 tolerance. To identify the MHC class II(+) donor cells promoting this tolerance, we used donor BM lacking certain cell populations or used positively selected cell populations. Neither donor CD11c(+) dendritic cells, B cells, T cells, nor donor-derived IL-10 were critical for chimerism induction. Purified donor B cells induced early chimerism and donor-specific cell-mediated lympholysis tolerance in both strain combinations tested. In contrast, positively selected CD11b(+) monocytes/myeloid cells did not induce early chimerism in either strain combination. Donor cell preparations containing B cells were able to induce early deletion of donor-reactive TCR-transgenic 2C CD8 T cells, whereas those devoid of B cells had reduced activity. Thus, induction of stable mixed chimerism depends on the expression of MHC class II on the donor marrow, but no requisite donor cell lineage was identified. Donor BM-derived B cells induced early chimerism, donor-specific cell-mediated lympholysis tolerance, and deletion of donor-reactive CD8 T cells, whereas CD11b(+) cells did not. Thus, BM-derived B cells are potent tolerogenic APCs for alloreactive CD8 cells. 相似文献
