When cultured with DNP-labeled I-A+ cells, Lyt 2+ T suppressor cells (Ts) from 2,4,-dinitrobenzene sulfonate (DNBS)-tolerized mice are activated to synthesize and release a suppressor factor (SSF) which suppresses the transfer of contact sensitivity to DNFB. The signals required to activate the DNBS-primed Ts to produce SSF were studied in greater detail. As previously observed with fixed DNP-labeled spleen cell stimulators, the supernatants from cultures of DNBS-primed spleen cells and glutaraldehyde-fixed DNP-labeled P388D1 cell monolayers did not contain SSF. When the tolerant cells were harvested from these monolayers and were treated with IL-1, the Ts released the synthesized SSF. Synthesis and release of SSF required Ts recognition of DNP/class I MHC on the hapten-presenting cells followed by interaction with the costimulator IL-1. When the tolerant cells were cultured with fixed DNP-labeled I-A+ or I-A- stimulators to induce SSF synthesis, release was induced by adding either unlabeled or TNP-labeled unprimed spleen cells to the cultures. The release of SSF was blocked when the second stimulators were pretreated with anti-I-A antibody but not with anti-DNP or anti-class I MHC antibodies. These results indicate that the release of SSF by DNBS-primed Lyt 2+ Ts is regulated by the activity of a self-I-A-reactive (i.e., autoreactive) T cell in the tolerant spleen cell population. 相似文献

Regulation of contact sensitivity to DNFB in the mouse: effects of adult thymectomy and thymic factor. 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

The contact sensitivity response to DNFB is decreased after adult thymectomy (ATX). This response decreases to 50% of the control response of normal age-matched mice as soon as 3 weeks after ATX and is not further depressed 9 to 16 weeks after ATX. These results suggest that two T cell subsets of different lifespan are involved in the anti-DNFB response. A circulating thymic factor (FTS) is able to restore the contact sensitivity response to DNFB when injected 3 to 9 weeks after ATX but not 16 weeks later. By contrast, FTS has a depressive effect on the contact sensitivity response to DNFB of normal mice through a cyclophosphamide-sensitive T cell subset. These results suggest that FTS regulates DNFB contact sensitivity by acting on a cyclophosphamide-sensitive T cell subset, still present 9 weeks after ATX but absent after 16 weeks. Thus although the T cell defect, causing a depression of the contact sensitivity reaction to DNFB is quantitatively similar 3 and 16 weeks after ATX, its nature is probably different. 相似文献

Tolerance and contact sensitivity to DNFB in mice. VI. Inhibition of afferent sensitivity by suppressor T cells in adoptive tolerance. 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

Tolerance in contact sensitivity to DNFB can be adoptively transferred to normal mice with lymph node cells from tolerant donors. This tolerance is antigen specific and is mediated by T cells, i.e., "suppressor" T cells. Experiments were carried out to investigate the mechanism(s) by which the suppressor T cells induce tolerance to DNFB contact sensitivity. The suppressor cells were effective only if they were present during the early stages of the afferent limb of sensitization. As measured by DNA synthesis, cell proliferation in the draining lymph nodes of recipients of suppressor cells was found to be significantly less than in control animals indicating that the suppressor cells acted, at least in part, by limiting or inhibiting DNFB-induced cell proliferation. This inhibition was shown to be antigen specific since the DNFB suppressor cells did not inhibit cell proliferation induced by oxazolone, an unrelated contact sensitizer. The ability to DNFB tolerant cells to block afferent sensitization pathways differs from the mechanism of tolerance to picryl chloride, reported by others, where efferent pathways are blocked. 相似文献

Immunologic unresponsiveness (tolerance) was induced in a mouse model of contact sensitization to DNFB. The ability to induce tolerance varied with the chemical reactivity of the tolerogen; DNFB was highly tolerogenic, DNBSO3 was moderately tolerogenic, and DNP-lysine was not tolerogenic. Although DNFB is considered a highly reactive compound, tracer studies of injected DNFB showed that it was rapidly excreted. Further studies were therefore done with DNFB attached to mouse erythrocytes. Tolerance to DNFB-RBC was highly specific in vivo; mice tolerant to DNFB showed normal reactivity to TNCB (picryl chloride.) Cells of mice tolerant to DNFB-RBC were also unresponsive to DNBSO3 in vitro. Tolerance to DNFB, DNBSO3, and DNFB-RBC all required time to develop, suggesting that an active process was involved. 相似文献

Cell-mediated immunity: role of IL-3 and IL-6 in the regulation of contact sensitivity reaction 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Delayed type hypersensitivity reaction (DTH) consists of a sequential cascade of steps depending on different types of T cells, as well as mast cells, endothelial cells and macrophages. Recently it has been shown that CD4+ TH1 lymphocytes ("inflammatory type") play a central role in DTH reaction. Activated TH1 cells produce a characteristic pattern of cytokines: IL-2, IL-3, TNF-beta, IFN-gamma. Using the contact sensitivity (CS) reaction on mice as a model system, the role of cytokines in the regulation of DTH is presented, particularly the significance of IL-3 and IL-6. The recent data can be interpreted to show that IL-6 released by activated macrophages (APC cells) in the induction phase of the CS reaction probably stimulate CD8+ T suppressor cells. These in turn inhibit the production of IL-2 and IL-3 by CD4+ TH1 cells followed by a state of unresponsiveness. 相似文献

Contact sensitivity to DNFB, induced by skin painting Balb/c mice with DNFB had no influence on the induction of carrier determined tolerance to DNP. In contrast, contact sensitivity to DNFB, elicited in complete Freund's adjuvant, prevented induction of tolerance to DNP. This effect was not due to the adjuvant alone and was hapten specific since contact sensitivity induced by OCBC in complete adjuvant had no influence on tolerance induction to DNP. In addition, in mice primed with DNFB in complete Freund's adjuvant, the tolerogen becomes immunogenic. It is suggested that the T-cell mediating tolerance to DNP-autologous IgG is different from the T-cell mediating contact sensitivity to DNP autologous carrier. DNFB in complete adjuvant may augment not only contact-sensitized T-cells, which mediate contact sensitivity, but also T-cells which have helper function in the antibody response to DNP. 相似文献

Adoptive tolerance to contact sensitivity to DNFB is mediated by suppressor T cells. These cells are induced by iv injection of the hapten DNB-SO3. Experiments were carried out to investigate the question of simultaneous transfer of tolerogen (DNB-SO3 or its conjugation product DNP) with the suppressor cells. The results showed that tolerant lymph node cells pretreated in vitro with anti-TNP serum before transfer were unable to induce unresponsiveness to DNFB. Tolerant cells treated with either anti-TNP serum which had been passed over a TNP-affinity column or with polyvalent anti-immunoglobul in serum were not inhibited. These results functionally demonstrate that LN cell populations containing DNFB suppressor cells have accessible hapten (e.g., DNP) associated with their membrane, which is necessary for induction of adoptive tolerance. The hapten (tolerogen) appears to be bound directly to the cell surface rather than as an immune complex. 相似文献

Current pharmacologic approaches to immune suppression leave much to be desired. The prevention of allograft rejection and the suppression of autoimmunity generally require treatment with corticosteroids or cytotoxic drugs, or both, which may not be sufficiently effective and which frequently cause serious immediate and long-term complications. With the advent of monoclonal antibody technology, it has become possible to identify and selectively inhibit distinct elements in the immune system that contribute to pathologic immune responses. This achievement has led to new therapeutic strategies that may be safer and more effective than the immunosuppressive therapies currently available. Many of these strategies focus on subsets of T cells because of the critical importance of T cells in immune responses. Monoclonal antibodies directed against CD4 + T cells, T-cell activation antigens, and T-cell receptor families have all shown promise in animal models and, in some cases, in preliminary human trials. The challenge now is to translate this promise into practical new forms of immunosuppressive therapy. 相似文献

Contact hypersensitivity (CS) to 2,4-dinitrofluorobenzene (DNFB) in BALB/c mice is regulated by autoanti-idiotypic antibody. This report describes the preparation and characterization of a monoclonal antibody, 2-16.1, which has characteristics previously described for the serum anti-idiotypic antibodies. Monoclonal 2-16.1 was prepared by fusing lymph node (LN) cells from optimally sensitized BALB/c mice to the P3X myeloma. The monoclonal product of the cloned hybridoma is an IgM (K) immunoglobulin which does not bind to DNP-protein but which does bind to other immunoglobulins with anti-DNP specificity, primarily of the IgM class. Functionally, 2-16.1 inhibits the efferent limb of the CS reaction as measured by passive transfer of immunity. This inhibition is antigen-specific and appears to require the presence of a subset of Ia+ T cells in the DNFB-immune LN cell population. Suppression of transfer of immunity is strain-specific. Finally, suppression occurs only in the absence of complement, indicating that a lytic mechanism is not involved and that 2-16.1 does not recognize determinants expressed on the effector T cells of the CS reaction. Collectively, these results indicate that 2-16.1 is a monoclonal anti-idiotypic antibody, and that the hybridoma CSDNP 2-16.1 represents a clone of B cells which is stimulated during the primary CS response to DNFB and whose antibody product is involved in the endogenous, active regulation of this T cell-mediated response. 相似文献

The immediate effects and mechanisms of desensitization of contact sensitivity to dinitrofluorobenzene (DNFB) were investigated. Intravenous injection of dinitrophenol (DNP)-labeled syngeneic spleen cells caused significant antigen-specific inhibition (greater than 40%) of the contact response within 24 hr in mice that had been sensitized 2 weeks prior to desensitization. With low concentrations of the hapten used for labeling, allogeneic spleen cells were found to be more efficient than syngeneic ones in inducing the down-regulation of the contact response. The most efficient desensitization was produced by DNP-cells that differed from the recipient at the MLS locus. Haptenated spleen cells induced the production of suppressor mechanisms, as spleen cells from animals desensitized with DNP-cells were able to down-regulate recipients in adoptive transfer and could block the passive transfer of contact sensitivity. Procedures that interfere with the development of suppressor cells, e.g., cyclophosphamide and adult thymectomy, interfered with desensitization by DNP-cells. These results are in contrast to desensitization with soluble dinitrobenzenesulfonic acid (DNBS), where suppressor mechanisms have not been shown. The mechanisms for desensitization depend upon the form of the desensitizing antigen. 相似文献

Two signals are required for the in vitro activation of Lyt2+ T suppressor cells (Ts) from mice tolerized with 2,4-dinitrobenzene sulfonate (DNBS) to produce soluble suppressor factors (SSF) which suppress the transfer of contact sensitivity to dinitrofluorobenzene (DNFB). Recognition of DNP/class I MHC (signal one) stimulates the Ts to synthesize SSF. Release of SSF requires a soluble mediator (signal two) produced by the interaction of L3T4+ T cells from tolerant mice with I-A on metabolically functional cells in the DNP-presenting cell population. The purpose of this study was to examine the nature of this second Ts activation signal. Coculture of tolerant spleen cells and glutaraldehyde-fixed (Glu-) DNP-labeled spleen cells (DNP-SC) resulted in the synthesis but not release of SSF. Addition of either IL-1 or IL-2 to these cultures induced SSF release. Treatment of such cultured cells with the anti-murine IL-2 receptor antibody PC 61.5.3 blocked the IL-2- and IL-1-stimulated release of SSF. Release of SSF was also blocked when tolerant cells were cultured with (unfixed) DNP-SC in the presence of a monoclonal anti-IL-2 antibody. IL-2 but not IL-1 was able to stimulate the Ts to release synthesized SSF in the absence of L3T4+ TH activity. First, addition of IL-2 to cocultures of tolerant cells and DNP-presenting I-A- cells induced release of the synthesized SSF, whereas addition of IL-1 did not. Second, IL-2 also stimulated SSF release in cocultures of L3T4+ T cell-depleted tolerant cells and Glu-DNP-SC, whereas IL-1 did not. Tolerant cells pretreated with IL-2 and then washed were able to synthesize and release SSF upon culture with Glu-DNP-SC. Pretreatment of tolerant cells with IL-1 did not stimulate SSF release upon subsequent culture with Glu-DNP-SC. These results indicate that the Lyt2+ Ts from DNBS-tolerant mice express IL-2 receptors and IL-2 is the lymphokine which induces the Ts to release synthesized SSF. Thus, IL-2 provides a differentiative signal during the functional activation of these regulatory T cells. 相似文献

Coculture of spleen cells from mice tolerized with 2,4-dinitrobenzenesulfonate (DNBS) and DNP-labeled spleen cells (DNP-SC) activates Lyt-2+ T suppressor cells (Ts) to synthesize and release a suppressor factor (SSF) into the supernatant, which suppresses the transfer of contact sensitivity to DNFB. The purpose of the present study was to examine in greater detail the signals required to activate DNBS-primed Ts to produce SSF. The supernatant from cultures of tolerant cells and glutaraldehyde-fixed DNP-SC did not have SSF. In contrast, the soluble cell lysate from these cultures did contain the suppressive activity. Pretreatment of glutaraldehyde-fixed DNP-SC with either anti-DNP or anti-class I, but not anti-class II MHC, antibodies blocked SSF synthesis. The addition of IL 1 to cultures of DNBS-tolerant cells and glutaraldehyde fixed DNP-SC restored the ability of the Ts to release the synthesized factor. These results indicate that Ts recognition of the hapten/class I MHC determinant stimulates the synthesis of SSF, and a costimulator is required to induce the release of the factor. The supernatants from cultures of either L3T4-depleted tolerant cells and DNP-SC or tolerant cells and anti-I-A antibody-treated DNP-SC had no SSF activity. The addition of a costimulator (IL 1) also restored the ability of the Ts to release the synthesized factor in cultures of L3T4-depleted tolerant cells and DNP-SC. These results suggest that an L3T4 cell in the DNBS-primed cell population interacts with I-A determinants on a cell in the DNP-stimulator population to initiate the generation of the mediator required for SSF release. This further suggests that the Ts is unable to induce the costimulator from the hapten-presenting cell during interaction with the DNP/class I MHC ligand. Therefore, the production of SSF is regulated not only by the presentation of the appropriate hapten/MHC determinant but also by the interactions of cells that function in generating the costimulator needed to induce release of the suppressor factor. 相似文献

We examined the effects of IL-4, a cytokine produced by Th2 cells, on the development of an Ag-specific, T cell-mediated inflammatory response in a hapten-induced model of contact sensitivity (CS). Intravenous administration of IL-4 was ineffective in modulating the development of CS when administered on days 0, 1, and 2 after sensitization with the hapten trinitrochlorobenzene. In contrast, such treatment significantly reduced the response when given on the day of challenge. Conversely, treatment with anti-IL-4 mAb on day 4 markedly increased the magnitude of CS but was without effect when administered on days 0, 1, and 2. These results suggest that IL-4 interferes with CS at the efferent but not the afferent limb of the response. IL-4 had no inhibitory effect on the ability of immune lymph node cells to transfer adoptively CS or their proliferation upon restimulation with hapten. However, the expression of CS by immune cells was severely curtailed in mice treated with IL-4 prior to immune cell transfer. Furthermore, IL-4 inhibited monokine (gamma-IFN inducible protein [IP-10] and TNF-alpha) expression in macrophages induced by treatment with culture supernatants from the Ag-stimulated immune lymph node cells. These results indicate that suppression of Ag-specific inflammatory CS response by IL-4 may be mediated at least in part through inhibition of cytokine production by mononuclear phagocytes infiltrating the site. 相似文献

We investigated genetic restrictions in the induction of immediate tolerance to DNFB contact sensitivity in mice. Using spleen cells from various donor strains haptenated at 500 micro M DNFB, we were unable to detect any restrictions in tolerance induction in recipients that were either syngeneic or allogeneic to the donor strain. However, if the concentration of hapten used in the in vitro labeling was decreased (from 500 micro M to 2.5 to 5 micro M DNFB), differences in tolerogenesis between the various donor strain haplotypes were found. Haptenated spleen cells labeled with 5 micro M DNFB produced a profound level of unresponsiveness in allogeneic recipients but produced minimal tolerance in syngeneic animals. This tolerant state was shown to be antigen-specific and was not produced by unmodified allogeneic cells alone. Further genetic analysis demonstrated that an efficient tolerant state was produced when the donor of the tolerogen and recipient differed at the MLS locus rather than at either the MHC or minor regions. This phenomenon required viable, Thy 1-bearing cells in the haptenated donor population for efficient tolerogenesis to DNFB contact sensitivity. 相似文献

This report defines a methodology for the production and characterization of an antigen-specific, monoclonal T cell hybrid-derived suppressor T cell factor (TsF) that suppresses the passive transfer of 2,4-dinitrofluorobenzene (DNFB) contact hypersensitivity. Fusion of T cells from BALB/c (H-2d) mice tolerized with syngeneic DNP-spleen cells to BW 5147 thymoma cells resulted in several hybrids that constitutively produce a soluble regulatory molecule. One of these hybrids, 26.10.2, was subsequently cloned, and its soluble factor was characterized with respect to its antigen specificity, biochemical nature, MHC restriction pattern, and identity of its target cell. 26.10.2 TsF suppresses the passive transfer of delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) mediated by DNP- but not trinitrochlorobenzene- or oxazalone-primed DTH T cells (TDH) after a 1 hr incubation at 37 degrees C. In contrast, 26.10.2 TsF had no suppressive effect on secondary in vitro DNP-specific T cell proliferative responses. 26.10.2 TsF therefore represents an antigen-specific factor with effector (efferent-acting) function. The monoclonal TsF was shown to consist of a two-chain, disulfide-bonded molecule, and to bear a receptor(s) specific for DNP and determinants encoded by the I region of the H-2 complex. Effector suppressive activity of 26.10.2 TsF was restricted by Class I H-2Dd determinants. One cellular target of this monoclonal factor was shown to be the DNP-specific TDH cell, because DNFB-primed lymph node cells from cyclophosphamide-pretreated donors (lacking Ts-auxiliary (Ts-aux) cells) were efficiently suppressed. The TsF appears to focus on passively bound, TDH receptor-associated, DNP-Class I determinants, as suggested by the observation that freshly prepared, but not overnight cultured, DNP-specific TDH cells were susceptible to suppression. 相似文献
