Three monoclonal antibodies (mAb) 2D1, 3B9, and 3B12 were produced by immunizing BALB/c mice with JURKAT cells. These mAb induce comodulation of the TCR/CD3 complex expressed on JURKAT cells, but do not react with the CD3- JURKAT variant, J.RT3.T3.1. Immunoprecipitation studies with detergent-solubilized JURKAT cell lystes indicate that these mAb react with proteins having characteristics of the TCR molecules. Their low reactivity with peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) and lack of reactivity with other CD3+ T cell lines suggest that they may be anti-idiotypic mAb. Results from binding inhibition assays, reactivity with PBMC, and generation of transmembrane signals suggest that these three anti-TCR mAb recognized different epitopes on the TCR beta chain of JURKAT cells. Although the three mAb are capable of inducing the production of inositol phosphates and cytosolic free Ca2+ increase in JURKAT cells, their stimulatory capacities vary and are lower than that observed by anti-CD3 antibody (OKT3) stimulation. However, crosslinking these mAb with rabbit antimouse immunoglobulins potentiates the stimulatory response to comparable levels induced by OKT3. These mAb could be useful as tools to study V beta 8+ T cells in relation to antigen-specific activation.  相似文献

Traditionally, cell culturists have relied upon the addition of serum to culture medium for the growth and maintenance of cell lines. However, many aspects of the use of serum in tissue culture are problematic. Cell culture supplements that circumvent the need for serum are readily available and provide a consistent protein composition. This defined environment allows the antibody to be more easily purified from culture supernatants. Nutridoma media supplements were formulated to support the growth of lymphoblastoid cells in a defined culture environment. In this study, Nutridoma media supplements were tested in parallel with serum-containing cultures to determine if Nutridoma supplemented medium is effective in supporting hybridoma cell growth and antibody production in three hybridoma cell lines. Data, based on cell growth and antibody production, show the importance of basal media selection when serum is replaced with Nutridoma media supplements. SDS-PAGE results show that cell supernatants from Nutridoma supplemented cultures contain very few contaminating proteins.  相似文献

Activation of human peripheral blood T cells by the anti-CD3 antibody OKT3 has been shown to require not only cross-linking of CD3 molecules with multimeric binding of the Fc part of OKT3 to a solid support, but also a second accessory cell-provided signal. Accordingly, measurement of T cell activation in cultures of highly enriched T cells with solid-phase-bound OKT3 can be used to investigate whether other agents can replace accessory cells. In this study we examined the capacity of anti-CD5 monoclonal antibodies to provide the additional activation signal. Resting T cells were prepared by isolating E rosette-positive cells, by removing OKM1(+) and HLA-DR(+) cells by panning, and by subsequent treatment of the cells with L-leucine methyl ester to kill remaining monocytes. These T cells were unresponsive to phytohemagglutinin (PHA) or to solid-phase-bound OKT3. However, when cultured in the presence of an anti-CD5 monoclonal antibody (anti-Leu-1, OKT1, or anti-T1), a proliferative response to solid-phase-bound OKT3 (but not to soluble OKT3 or to PHA) was observed. Anti-CD5 had no functional effect by itself, but in association with solid-phase-bound OKT3 it enhanced IL 2 receptor expression and IL 2 production and it initiated T cell proliferation. T cell proliferation under these conditions could be inhibited by an IL 2 receptor blocking antibody anti-Tac, thus confirming that anti-CD5 provides the second signal for an IL 2-dependent pathway of T cell proliferation. Preincubation of T cells with anti-Leu-1 or OKT1 resulted in complete loss of CD5 antigenicity, and such CD5 modulation was sufficient to induce a proliferative response to solid-phase-bound OKT3. It is concluded that in T cell activation by solid-phase-bound OKT3 the necessary additional signal can be provided by modulation of the CD5 antigen with an anti-CD5 antibody. CD5 therefore appears to be a positive signal receptor on the T cell membrane, whose physiologic ligand still has to be determined.  相似文献

Unfractionated human peripheral blood mononuclear cells produce a small amount of interleukin 2 (IL 2) by stimulation with a monoclonal anti-T3 antibody (OKT3) in vitro. The IL 2 production could be greatly augmented by the addition of a phorbol ester, 12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate (TPA). In the presence of TPA, the T cell enriched fraction deprived of macrophages did not produce IL 2, but the T cells pulse-incubated with OKT3 and reconstituted with macrophages efficiently produced IL 2 in subsequent culture in the presence of TPA as did T cells reconstituted with OKT3-pulse-incubated macrophages. The stimulating effect of OKT3 in the presence of macrophages was inhibited dose-dependently by the addition of immunoglobulins, particularly by mouse IgG2a which is the same isotype as that of the OKT3 antibody, showing that it inhibits by blocking the binding of OKT3 to Fc receptors on macrophages. The same extent of IL 2 production was induced in T cells when paraformaldehyde-fixed macrophages were substituted for intact macrophages. Remarkable IL 2 production was also induced by OKT3 when latex beads coated with rabbit anti-mouse IgG2a antibody and TPA were added to the culture. It was confirmed that the production induced by these stimulations was due to an increase of IL 2 mRNA. These results show that effective signals for IL 2 production are generated by efficient crosslinking of T3 molecules which results from multi-interaction of T3 molecules on the T cell membrane and anti-T3 antibody molecules on macrophage membrane or on the surface of the latex particle.  相似文献

We studied IL 2 production and proliferation induced by OKT3 mitogenic monoclonal antibody in the OKT8+ T cell subset. OKT3 antibody induced IL 2 production and proliferation in OKT8+ cells in a typical time-dependent manner: maximal IL 2 levels were found in 24 hr culture supernatants; maximal proliferation was found on day 3. OKT3 antibody was mitogenic over a wide range of concentrations (0.125 to 500 ng/ml). The presence of OKT8 antibody (greater than or equal to 100 ng/ml) in these cultures resulted in almost complete inhibition of IL 2 production and proliferation. Kinetic studies demonstrate that OKT8 antibody suppresses both IL 2 production and response to exogenous IL 2 in OKT8+ cells when added within the first 2 hr of culture. After 14 to 20 hr of culture, addition of OKT8 only blocks IL 2 production but not the IL 2 response of activated OKT8+ cells. The specificity of inhibition by OKT8 antibody of OKT3 mitogenicity on OKT8+ cells was confirmed by the failure of Leu-I and OKT4 antibody to produce the same effect and by the lack of inhibition by OKT8 antibody of OKT3-induced IL 2 production and proliferation in OKT4+ cells.  相似文献

Human peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) exhibited spontaneous cytotoxicity against OKT3 monoclonal antibody (mAb)-expressing murine hybridoma cells (OKT3 hybridomas). In contrast, other murine hybridomas expressing OKT4, OKT8, anti-HLA DR, and anti-HLA A, B, and C mAb were not lysed. PBL showed much lower levels of cytotoxicity (3 folds) against OKT3 hybridomas as compared with NK activity against the K562 targets. Lymph node (LN) cells exhibited the inverse relationship of cytotoxicity levels. The addition of OKT3 mAb to the effector cells totally blocked both the binding and the lysis of OKT3 hybridoma targets, indicating that the CD3 antigen on the effector cells may be involved in recognition of the targets. The addition of concanavalin (Con A) also inhibited the cytotoxicity of OKT3 hybridomas. OKT4 mAb-expressing hybridomas became susceptible to lysis after chemical attachment of OKT3 mAb with CrCl3. The kinetics of lysis of OKT3 hybridomas resembled that of NK activity. Both cytotoxicities were detectable after 1 to 2 hr and reached plateau levels by 4 to 6 hr. Effector cells responsible for lysis of OKT3 hybridomas expressed T3, T8, and Leu 7 antigens, but lacked T4 and Leu 11b antigens, and were sensitive to the treatment with L-leucine methyl ester. These results indicate that T3+, T8+, Leu 7+ and T4-, and Leu 11- granular lymphocytes have a spontaneous cytotoxic activity against OKT3 hybridomas which is different from classic NK activity. These findings may provide a method for the assessment of T-cell cytotoxicity mediated presumably by in vivo generated cytotoxic T lymphocytes in blood and the other immune organs.  相似文献

OKT3 monoclonal antibody (MoAb), a mouse MoAb against cluster of differentiation 3 (CD3) molecule, induced a large amount of procoagulant activity (PCA) in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBM). The PCA-inducing capability in OKT3 MoAb was abolished by absorption with T lymphocytes or Sepharose-conjugated antibody to mouse IgG. Most of the PCA in PBM was associated with monocytes. There was a dose-dependent increase in PCA when increasing numbers of T cells were added to the monocytes in the presence of OKT3 MoAb. OKT3 MoAb did not induce PCA in either T cells or monocytes alone. T cells pulsed with OKT3 MoAb only in the presence of monocytes could induce PCA in monocytes. Culture supernatants (CS) from PBM stimulated with OKT3 MoAb did not enhance PCA in monocytes; however, it did induce PCA in the human monocyte-like cell line (U937) which differs in some properties from monocytes; this activity could be abolished by the MoAb against human interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma). Nevertheless, neither human IFN-gamma nor interleukin 1 or 2 had significant direct effect in inducing PCA in U937 cells; CS from either monocytes or T cells alone stimulated with OKT3 MoAb did not induce PCA in U937 cells. This apparent discrepancy suggests that there may be factors in CS that induce PCA in U937 cells only in the presence of IFN-gamma. The PCA induced in monocytes or U937 cells was tissue factor-like because of the dependence on coagulation factors V, VII, and X. These observations suggest that OKT3 MoAb is a potent T cell-dependent monocyte PCA inducer and stimulates T cells only in the presence of monocytes. The direct cellular interaction between monocytes and stimulated T cells appears to be necessary to elicit monocyte PCA with OKT3 MoAb stimulation. Thus, monocytes may play a dual role, not only as effector cells, but also as cells that collaborate with T cells after OKT3 MoAb stimulation so as to produce PCA.  相似文献

The murine monoclonal antibody BMA 031 (IgG2b) is directed to a monomorphic epitope on the human alpha/beta T-cell receptor. In contrast to anti-CD3 antibodies of the IgG2b isotype, BMA 031 is able to induce a proliferative response in T-cells from IgG2b low responders. This response occurs independently of cross-linking conditions indicating that the mode of activation differs from stimulation by the anti-CD3 antibody OKT3 (IgG2a) which strictly depends on cross-linking conditions. to further characterize the stimulatory potential of the two antibodies we studied the lymphocyte subsets responsive to stimulation by BMA 031 and OKT3. In CD45RA+ cells both antibodies exhibited similar effects. They induced weak expression of the 55-kDa chain of the interleukin-2 receptor (CD25), virtually no interleukin-2 secretion, but nevertheless strong proliferation. In CD45R0+ cells OKT3 and BMA 031 showed markedly different effects. OKT3 stimulated strong CD25 expression, strong interleukin-2 production, and marked proliferation. In contrast, CD45R0+ cells stimulated by BMA 031 showed only weak CD25 expression but neither interleukin-2 production nor proliferation. These data suggest that CD45RA+ and CD45R0+ cells differ in their capability to produce interleukin-2 upon stimulation via the CD3/T-cell receptor complex and also in the requirement for interleukin-2 to mount a proliferative response. The differential effect of OKT3 and BMA 031 in CD45R0+ cells probably results from the failure of BMA 031 to trigger interleukin-2 production which may be a consequence of its inability to induce CD3/T-cell receptor cross-linking in IgG2b low responders BMA 031 is therefore a useful tool for the selective activation of CD45RA+ cells in these individuals.  相似文献

For the production of monoclonal antibodies against pp60src and the gag precursor protein Pr76gag, the spleens of mice bearing tumors that had been induced by avian sarcoma virus Schmidt-Ruppin D-transformed cells were used. One hybridoma culture produced antibodies that were directed against the p19 portion of the gag precursor. However, no antibodies directed against pp60src could be detected in any of the hybridoma supernatants. The anti-p19-producing hybridoma culture was cloned twice in soft agar, and a stable clone was used for the production of high-titer ascites fluid in mice. The monoclonal antibodies belonged to the immunoglobulin G subclass 2b. The antibodies precipitated Pr76gag and the processed virion-associated p19, as well as the 75,000-molecular-weight gag fusion protein from avian erythroblastosis virus-transformed bone marrow cells. Also, viral ribonucleoprotein complexes were specifically precipitable, indicating that they contain p19 molecules.  相似文献

OKT3 monoclonal antibody (mab) recognizes a membrane antigen associated with the T cell antigen recognition receptor, and is known to be mitogenic and to induce lymphokine production. Our studies demonstrate the ability of OKT3 mab to induce from cultures of human T lymphocytes supplemented with adherent cells the production of colony-stimulating factor(s) for granulocytes and macrophages (GM-CSF) and interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma), an inhibitor of clonal growth of hematopoietic progenitor cells. As has been shown for the mitogenic and IFN-gamma-inducing activity of OKT3 mab, the induction of GM-CSF release in cultures of T cells is strictly dependent on the presence of adherent cells. However, the concentrations of OKT3 mab required for optimal GM-CSF production (50 ng/ml) were found to be 80-fold higher than those sufficient for maximal IFN-gamma production, proliferation, and interleukin 2 production. IFN-gamma activity induced by OKT3 mab partially inhibited colony and cluster formation from progenitor cells of granulocytes and macrophages in vitro. Therefore, neutralization of the IFN-gamma by monoclonal anti-human-IFN-gamma antibody before assay of conditioned medium in bone marrow cultures significantly enhanced the detection of GM-CSF. Kinetic studies demonstrated maximal cumulative GM-CSF production in response to optimal OKT3 mab concentrations on days 4 through 6 in cultures of T cells supplemented with 15% adherent cells. Highly enriched OKT4+ and OKT8+ T cell subsets co-cultured with adherent cells in the presence of OKT3 mab both produced GM-CSF and IFN-gamma and showed similar dose-response curves to OKT3 mab. The requirement for the presence of adherent cells could not be overcome by the addition of purified interleukin 1 or macrophage supernatants. Studies using irreversible inhibitors of DNA (mitomycin C) or protein biosynthesis (emetine-HCl) revealed the necessity of intact DNA synthesis and translation in mononuclear cells to produce GM-CSF in response to OKT3 mab. Loss of GM-CSF production was observed when either adherent cells or T lymphocytes were treated with emetine before co-culture with untreated cells of the other population in the presence of OKT3 mab. In contrast, mitomycin C reduced GM-CSF production significantly when T cells, but not adherent cells, were pretreated. These results suggest that T lymphocytes and adherent cells closely cooperate in the production of GM-CSF induced by OKT3 mab.  相似文献

It has been previously reported from this laboratory that incubation of PBMC with OKT3 generates potent cytotoxic lymphocytes that can be targeted by using antibody heteroconjugates consisting of anti-target cell antibody and OKT3. In the present study these conjugates were used to explore the kinetics of induction of cytotoxicity in PBMC and the subpopulations of lymphocytes involved. It was found that in addition to conjugate-dependent cytotoxicity, a considerable amount of conjugate-independent cytotoxicity was generated during OKT3 stimulation. Although the conjugate-dependent activity resided in the CD8+ population, the conjugate-independent cytotoxicity was found to be a function of CD4-/CD8- natural killer-like cells. Being largely CD3-, those cells were most likely activated by lymphokines produced by OKT3-stimulated CD3+ cells. They were capable of killing not only tumor cells but also autologous lymphocytes. The CD4+ cells of some donors were found to exhibit low but clearly demonstrable cytotoxicity. Induction of cytotoxicity was characterized as an early event in T cell activation, correlating with the kinetics of RNA synthesis. Cytotoxicity, interleukin 2 receptor expression, and DNA synthesis declined after 3 days of activation with OKT3, indicating the existence of as yet undefined regulatory mechanisms.  相似文献

Recent investigations have indicated that the OKM1 hybridoma monoclonal antibody reactive with cells of the myelomonocytic series identifies a subpopulation of human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMNC) which mediate natural and antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC). However, it was not clear whether this OKM1+ group was heterogeneous with regard to cytotoxic function or the presence of receptors for sheep erythrocytes. Thus, the purpose of the present study was to further define the phenotype of the ADCC effector cell and natural killer (NK) cell using a combination of reactivity with hybridoma antibodies and separation of subsets by sheep erythrocyte rosette (E+) formation. Furthermore, the phenotypes of the NK population were assessed directly by performing two-color immunofluorescent staining on tumor cell conjugates. These studies led to the following conclusions: (1) that NK activity is mediated by both E+ OKM1+ and E- OKM1+ cells; the E+ OKT3+ cell possessed essentially no ADCC or NK activity; (2) that E+ OKM1+ cells mediated more NK activity on a per cell basis than E- OKM1+ cells; this was verified by separating OKM1+ cells on a cell sorter into E+ and E- with the OKT11 monoclonal antibody (anti-E-receptor antibody); (3) that E+ OKM1+ cells mediated both ADCC and NK activity; (4) that the phenotypes of PBMNC forming tumor cell conjugates were (a) OKM1+ (both E-receptor positive and negative) and (b) OKM1- E-receptor positive.  相似文献

We report a new, monocyte-independent system for the induction of activation and proliferation of human T cells in response to murine hybridomas expressing the OKT3 monoclonal antibody (OKT3 hybridomas). Incubation of nylon-wool-nonadherent (NA) lymphocytes or purified T cells with OKT3 hybridomas resulted in interleukin-2 (IL-2) production, expression of IL-2 receptor, modulation of the CD3 antigen, and proliferation. In contrast, murine hybridomas (OKT4, OKT8, anti-HLA-DR, and others) expressing monoclonal antibodies (mAb) other than OKT3 did not induce T-cell activation and proliferation. T cells did not respond to OKT3 mAb alone. OKT3 hybridomas alone did not produce interleukin-1 (IL-1) or other soluble factors that might be involved in the induction of IL-2 production by T cells, and they did not contain membrane-bound IL-1. In addition, IL-1 activity was not detected in cultures of NA-lymphocytes and OKT3 hybridomas, clearly demonstrating that IL-1 was not required, at least in this system, for T-cell activation and proliferation. Direct cell-cell contact between T cells and OKT3 hybridomas was required for IL-2 production. Thirty to fifty percent of T cells formed conjugates with the OKT3 hybridomas but not with the OKT4 or OKT8 hybridomas. Both conjugate formation and IL-2 production were significantly inhibited by the OKT3 mAb and by the anti-LFA-1 mAb. The cells responsible for IL-2 production were found to be of the T3+ T4+ T8- Leu 7- Leu 11- phenotype. IL-2 activity produced by NA-lymphocytes in response to OKT3 hybridomas became detectable as early as 1 hr and reached a maximum by 8 hr, preceding IL-2 receptor expression, modulation of the CD3 antigen, and [3H]thymidine incorporation of T cells. T cells produced higher concentrations of IL-2 in response to OKT3 hybridomas than in response to equal numbers of monocytes and OKT3 mAb. Addition of monocytes to cultures of T cells and OKT3 hybridomas resulted in suppression of IL-2 production in a concentration-dependent manner, suggesting that monocytes regulate the levels of IL-2 production. This monocyte-independent system may be useful for further dissection of T-cell activation and proliferation and its regulation by monocytes.  相似文献

We describe a limiting dilution (LD) culture system in which cell sorter-purified CD4+ (and CD8+) peripheral blood T cells are cocultured with irradiated, anti-CD3 mab-producing OKT3 hybridoma cells. Under these conditions, one out of 2-3 CD4+ (and CD8+) T cells is induced to clonal proliferation. In striking contrast to previously described LD culture systems, every growing CD4+ cell clone displayed cytotoxic activity when tested in a lectin-facilitated 51Cr release assay against P815 target cells. This contrasts with the development of cytotoxic CD4+ T cells in alloantigen-stimulated LD cultures, where only one out of 15-20 proliferating CD4+ cells killed P815 in the presence of PHA, and one out of 300-500 proliferating CD4+ cells displayed alloantigen-specific cytotoxic activity. Furthermore, we have established antigen-specific proliferating CD4+ T cell clones which do not exert antigen-specific cytotoxicity but can be cytotoxic when crosslinked to target cells via lectin or monoclonal antibody (anti-CD3, anti-TCR). Our results show that a previously unrecognized large fraction (at least 30-50%) of all peripheral blood CD4+ T cells can give rise to cytotoxic effector cells. The mode of CD4+ T cell activation (OKT3 hybridoma versus alloantigen) thus determines whether the intrinsic cytotoxic capacity of CD4+ T cells is functionally activated or not.  相似文献

Microimmunofluorescence using Terasaki plates and a direct plate freezing method were combined for effective screening of hybridoma supernatants. The microplates, in which the fused cells (myeloma and spleen cells) were cultured and hybridoma colonies were growing, were frozen after harvest of supernatants and saved at -80 C for several weeks without affecting antibody production ability of hybridomas. Microimmunofluorescence was performed in Terasaki plates on which target cells were attached by poly-L-lysine and glutaraldehyde or by short time culture of the cells in Terasaki plates. The direct plate freezing method prevented initial hybridoma cells from changes or disappearance of antibody productions during screening of hybridoma supernatants; the microimmunofluorescence staining method permits fast and detailed estimation of specificity of antibodies of hybridomas by saving time and minimal consumption of supernatant for checking. The combination of these two methods is a powerful tool for obtaining desired monoclonal antibodies.  相似文献

The addition of autologous erythrocytes to unfractionated human mononuclear cell cultures results in enhancement of B cell responses to antigens and mitogens. This costimulating effect of red cells is abrogated by their preincubation with anti-LFA-3 monoclonal antibody. Preincubation of mononuclear cells with anti-CD2 monoclonal antibodies (anti-Leu 5b, OKT11, used singly) has a down-regulating effect on B cell activation and no enhancement of B cell responses is seen when red cells are added to anti-CD2-treated cultures. These results demonstrate a functional effect on B cells of the interaction between the CD2 molecule on T lymphocytes and its natural ligand, LFA-3. The precise mechanism by which this costimulating effect on B lymphocytes takes place is unclear. The study of T cell populations and T cell activation markers shows that the addition of erythrocytes causes a small but reproducible increase in the number of cells expressing the IL-2 receptor and the addition of IL-2 enhances the response of mononuclear cells to antigenic stimulation in the presence of erythrocytes. However, the supernatants of mononuclear cell cultures stimulated with pokeweed mitogen in the presence of autologous erythrocytes show decreased levels of IL-2, compared to supernatants of cells stimulated with pokeweed mitogen alone. The same supernatants show increased levels of interferon-gamma, but the addition of this lymphokine to cultures stimulated with pokeweed mitogen has no potentiating effect. It is possible that the effect of erythrocytes is mediated by other growth and/or differentiation factors, and additional studies will be required to clarify this point.  相似文献

OKT3 and UCHT1 monoclonal antibodies, which recognize the same human T cell surface antigen, induce proliferation in T lymphocytes. In this report, we compared the mechanism by which these antibodies trigger DNA synthesis in human peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) cultures. Whereas PBMC from all donors tested were mitogenically inducible by OKT3, cells from only 25 of 40 donors were responsive to UCHT1 . UCHT1 treatment of PBMC from responders, but not from nonresponders, resulted in the expression by T cells of membrane binding sites reactive with anti-Tac monoclonal antibody, which specifies the human interleukin 2 (IL 2) receptor. UCHT1 -induced PBMC supernatants from nonresponders, but unexpectedly, also from responders, contained no measurable IL 2 activity. In keeping with this finding, anti-Tac monoclonal antibody failed to suppress UCHT1 -triggered [3H]thymidine incorporation into PBMC from responsive donors. By contrast, OKT3 treatment of PBMC from all donors led to the emergence of IL 2 receptors, and substantial IL 2 production, and the resultant DNA synthesis was inhibitable by anti-Tac antibody. These data indicate that the interaction of OKT3 and UCHT1 monoclonal antibodies with the same T cell structure leads to the induction of proliferation via two different mechanisms: one dependent on the availability of IL 2 (OKT3) and one independent on the production and processing of this lymphokine ( UCHT1 ). PBMC unresponsiveness to UCHT1 could therefore not be related to a dysfunction in IL 2 synthesis or IL 2 receptor display.  相似文献

The induction of differentiation in human malignant T-lymphoblastic cell lines MOLT-3 and Jurkat by the tumor promoter, 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA) was examined using the monoclonal antibodies OKT3, OKT4, OKT6, and OKT8 which are known to react with human T-cell differentiation antigens. It was found that in the presence of nanomolar concentrations of TPA the proportion of OKT3+ (mature T-cell marker) cells increased while the proportion of OKT4+, OKT6+, and OKT8+ (relatively immature T-cell markers) cells decreased. These changes in the distribution of the OKT antigens in MOLT-3 cells were found to be more prominent with MOLT-3 cells than when the Jurkat cells were used. In studies using a double labeling approach it was found that although the OKT3+ and E-rosette-positive (E+) cells appeared to belong to the same subpopulations of MOLT-3 cells, the OKT3 antigen was probably not related to the receptor for sheep erythrocytes because adsorption of the OKT3 antibody did not block E-rosette formation. Studies using the DNA synthesis inhibitor, arabinosylcytidine (ara-C) also indicate that DNA synthesis was not required for the induction of more mature T-cell antigens in the malignant T-cell lines by TPA. These studies, taken together with our earlier reports, support the conclusion that namomolar concentrations of TPA can induce differentiation in these malignant T-cell lines. Furthermore we have shown that the T-cell hybridoma antibodies are useful markers to detect differentiation changes in human T cells.  相似文献

Homologous human macrophage hybridoma cell lines were obtained by somatic cell fusion between peripheral blood monocyte-derived macrophages and a subclone of the myelomonocytic cell line, U937-F9. The hybridoma cell lines grown in vitro for more than a year were confirmed by manifestations of phagocytosis, adherence, nonspecific esterase, acid phosphatase, chromosome numbers and other cell surface antigens. Cell surface antigens on hybridomas were detected by flow cytometry analysis with monoclonal antibodies. With interclonal differences, a typical phenotype of hybridoma cells was CDw14+, OKM5+, Mac-1+ (equivalent to OKM1 and Mol), OKT9+, HLA-DR- and CD20+. After stimulation with lipopolysaccharide and calcium ionophore A23187, culture supernatants of clones c18A and c29A showed cytotoxic activity against human melanoma A375 Met-Mix and other cell lines which were resistant to the tumor necrosis factor, lymphotoxin and interleukin 1. This cytotoxic factor was found to be distinct from the tumor necrosis factor, lymphotoxin and interleukin 1 using the anti-tumor necrosis factor, anti-lymphotoxin and anti-interleukin 1 antisera.  相似文献
