HGG unresponsiveness can be induced in primed A/J mice; however, such induction is difficult and requires multiple injections of large doses of soluble HGG (SHGG). Although single injections (1.5–25 mg) of deaggregated HGG (DHGG) did not result in a significant secondary immune response, an unresponsive state to a subsequent injection of aggregated HGG (AHGG) was not induced. When the dose of DHGG was even smaller (0.5 mg), a normal secondary response was obtained similar to that observed following injection of AHGG. Evidence is presented here which suggests that the difficulty encountered in inducing unresponsiveness may be in part due to partial aggregation of DHGG by persisting antibody in the circulation. The PFC to HGG produced after injection of either AHGG or DHGG or during induction of unresponsiveness to SHGG apparently involved cell division, since all three responses were inhibited by vinblastine. The reduction in PFC in primed mice injected with DHGG or SHGG was not due to selective inhibition of PFC secreting certain classes or subclasses of immunoglobulins. 相似文献

Induction of tolerance in athymic mice with an antigen which is highly immunogenic in euthymic mice.
Adult congenitally athymic (nu/nu) mice were found to be unable to respond to aggregated human γ-globulin (AHGG), the normally immunogenic form of HGG, unless first reconstituted with specific T cells. However, pretreatment of nude mice with AHGG prior to T-cell reconstitution resulted in the induction of unresponsiveness. This state of tolerance was specific since pretreated animals responded normally to the noncross-reacting antigens turkey γ-globulin or DNP-Ficoll. Transfer of spleen cells from nude mice pretreated with AHGG into normal littermates did not significantly affect a subsequent anti-HGG response of the recipients. Conversely, nude mice pretreated with AHGG and reconstituted with normal littermate spleen cells were hyporesponsive to challenge with AHGG. The results of these experiments are discussed in reference to various models for the induction of B-cell unresponsiveness. 相似文献

It has previously shown that AHGG, a form of HGG that is highly immunogenic in euthymic adult mice, is capable of inducing specific unresponsiveness when injected into neonatal animals. This report extends this finding and indicates that such a neonatal treatment results in the induction of tolerance in T as well as B cells. Furthermore, a similar conclusion was reached regarding specific T lymphocyte function in animals treated as neonates with OVA. The ability of LPS to modulate responses of neonatal animals to AHGG or DHGG was also examined. It appeared that such mice were not susceptible to the adjuvant effects of LPS until the 4th week of life. Furthermore, LPS was incapable of inhibiting the unresponsiveness induced in mice by either DHGG or AHGG until the 3rd or 4th week of life. 相似文献

As an approach to examine the influence of the state of cellular activation on the ability to tolerize B cells, the induction of unresponsiveness in human gamma-globulin-(HGG) primed B lymphocytes was studied in an adoptive transfer system. In contrast to transferred normal spleen cells, spleen cells from HGG-primed mice are not readily rendered unresponsive when exposed to the tolerogen, deaggregated HGG (DHGG), in irradiated recipients. A kinetic study showed that unfractionated primed spleen cells do not respond to an antigenic challenge given between 6 and 10 days after cell transfer and injection of DHGG, indicating that they are transiently depressed. In contrast, isolated primed B cells are tolerized when transferred to recipients and treated with DHGG in the absence of T cells. Furthermore, primed B cells exposed to tolerogen in the recipients do not recover the ability to respond to HGG either after a secondary challenge with AHGG given up to 14 days after transfer, or after 2 consecutive challenges given on days 14 and 24 after transfer. The presence of primed T cells at the time of tolerization interferes with the induction of unresponsiveness in these primed B cells. These studies suggest that the presence of primed T cells is responsible for the inability to tolerize unfractionated primed spleen cells populations and that primed B cells themselves are not intrinsically resistant to the induction of unresponsiveness. 相似文献

Hapten-specific B-cell tolerance may be induced by nonimmunogenic hapten derivatives of carboxylmethylcellulose or methylcellulose (MC) in adult, neonatal, or irradiated fetal liver reconstituted mice. Such tolerance was shown to occur independent of T cells, and a receptor blockade has been ruled out as a causative mechanism. Oxidation and subsequent reduction of the vicinal hydroxyl groups of both carriers significantly reduces their tolerogenic potential in adult mice, yet their hapten derivatives remain nonimmunogenic. Such chemical modification of the carrier does not affect the molecular weight and not only does not reduce the binding avidity but increases it for either free antibody- or antigen-binding cells. We have examined the ability of the immature immune system to functionally discriminate between the nominal and the chemically modified hapten conjugate. Like adult mice, the immunologically immature animals were invariably capable of distinguishing between the tolerogenic and the nontolerogenic carrier. Mice treated during ontogenic development with 2,4-dinitrophenyl (DNP)-MC were found to be hapten specifically tolerant when challenged at 4 weeks of age with the TI-2 antigen DNP-Ficoll (F) but not when challenged with the polyclonal activator lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or the TI-1 antigen DNP-Brucella. Moreover, neonatal mice treated for 8 weeks with 2,4,6-trinitrophenyl-ovalbumin (TNP-OVA) were hapten specifically tolerant when challenged with TNP-OVA or the TI-1 antigen TNP-LPS but responded to a challenge with the TI-2 antigen TNP-F. These data suggest that B-cell tolerance in adult as well as in immunologically immature mice is not only carrier dependent but, in addition, that the carrier selects the B subpopulation to be rendered unresponsive. The most popular version of the clonal abortion hypothesis puts no constraints upon the nature of the antigen as long as the B cell is ontogenically "predisposed" toward being rendered unresponsive upon contact with a ligand of sufficiently high binding avidity. Our data are at variance with this prediction. 相似文献

Aging is a complex process that adversely affects most if not all components of the immune system. In this report, two long-lived mouse strains have been compared in ability to generate both antigen-specific immunity and tolerance. Although CBA/CaJ mice produced high levels of antibody following injection of aqueous preparations of aggregated human gamma-globulin (AHGG), C57BL/6 mice made only meager antibody responses to such preparations. Age dramatically affects the humoral anti-HGG response to aqueous AHGG in both strains, but the meager response of young C57BL/6 mice was at insignificant levels in aged C57BL/6 mice. Conversely, both mouse strains generated good responses following injection of HGG in complete Freund's adjuvant at both the T and B cell level as evidenced by in vitro antigen-specific T cell proliferation and anti-HGG antibody production. Aged mice of both strains showed a marked decrease in the production of serum anti-HGG antibody in comparison to young mice. Although the antigen-specific T cell proliferative response was significantly decreased in aged CBA/CaJ mice, such proliferation was not affected in aged mice of the C57BL/6 strain. Removal of CD8+ cells from lymph node T cells of either young or aged C57BL/6 mice did not increase the antigen-specific proliferative response, suggesting that loss of CD8+ suppressors during the aging process is not responsible for the high level of antigen-specific T cell proliferation in aged C57BL/6 mice. Tolerance to HGG was readily induced in both young and aged C57BL/6 and CBA/CaJ mice although aged mice demonstrate a modest resistance to tolerance induction when compared to their young counterparts. This resistance was observed in both antibody production and antigen-specific T cell proliferation. 相似文献

Immunologic unresponsiveness after gastric administration of human gamma-globulin: antigen requirements and cellular parameters 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Gastric administration of human gamma-globulin (HGG) into adult A/J mice leads to the establishment of an antigen-specific unresponsive state to subsequent parenteral challenge with HGG. An unresponsive state is induced in both helper T and B lymphocyte populations. Unresponsiveness in helper T cells is of longer duration than in B cells, lasting at least 9 wk after intragastric intubation. Adoptive cell transfer of spleen cells from gastrically inoculated mice into healthy irradiated, syngeneic recipients revealed that the unresponsive state is stable upon cell transfer and that suppressor cells are present in the spleens of gastrically tolerized mice. The establishment of HGG-specific unresponsiveness is dependent upon both the dose and the form of the antigen adminstered. Soluble and deaggregated HGG are both more efficient than is heat-aggregated HGG in inducing unresponsiveness gastrically. The administered HGG is rapidly eliminated from the animal and only a small fraction reaches the circulation as immunoreactive protein. Although the cellular parameters of the systemic unresponsiveness induced by intragastric intubation with HGG appear similar to the parameters of parenterally induced unresponsiveness, the precise mechanisms by which gastric unresponsive states are established remain to be resolved. 相似文献

The injection of aged mice with 7-methyl-8-oxoguanosine (7m8oGuo) along with aggregated human gamma-globulin (AHGG) results in an enhanced anti-HGG antibody response. Aged mice injected with AHGG alone make only a feeble anti-HGG response. The enhanced response in aged mice was not significantly different from the response obtained in young-adult mice injected only with AHGG. However, the enhanced response obtained by injection of 7m8oGuo in young-adult mice was several orders of magnitude greater than that observed in the aged mice. Aged mice given a primary injection of AHGG alone failed to make a secondary response to AHGG given 90 days later, whereas aged mice injected with 7m8oGuo along with a primary injection of AHGG showed variable secondary antibody responses to AHGG. Two of seven mice showed high degrees of immunological memory equivalent to that seen in young-adult mice while others showed either meagre or no responses. The effect of 7m8oGuo appeared to be primarily on B cells, albeit the role of T cells cannot be ruled out. 相似文献

Dinitrophenyl (DNP)-Ficoll will elicit typical delayed hypersensitivity skin reactions in guinea pigs immunized with DNP-keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH). We observed that lymph node cells (LNC) from these animals produced the lymphokine, monocyte chemotactic factor (MNL CTX) when stimulated by DNP-Ficoll in vitro. This response was antigen and hapten specific since LNC from nonimmune guinea pigs or those immunized with nonDNP containing antigens were not stimulated by DNP-Ficoll. Lymph node cells were fractionated into T- and B-cell-enriched populations to determine the nature of the DNP-Ficoll-responsive cell. Only the B-lymphocyte-enriched population produced MNL CTX in response to DNP-Ficoll. The purity of the B-cell population was demonstrated by its failure to respond to PHA and by the fact that B cells derived from DNP-although they could no longer respond without T-cell help to the T-dependent antigen, DNP-OVA. These findings suggest that the hapten-specific response of guinea pigs to DNP-Ficoll may be a form of B-cell-mediated delayed hypersensitivity. 相似文献

T cell-mediated delayed hypersensitivity (DH) to human gamma-globulin (HGG) can be induced in chickens by subcutaneous injection of the antigen in complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA). In the present work, it has been demonstrated that specific tolerance of the cells mediating this DH can readily be induced in both normal and bursectomized (BX) FP strain chickens by simple i.v. injection of soluble antigen, regardless of the presence of antibody production to the tolerogen. A significant degree of tolerance at the DH and helper T cell levels could be generated in BX birds by injection of as little as 0.5 mg of HGG; such a dose only induced tolerance in normal birds when it had been previously deagregated by ultracentrifugation. Regular, nondeaggregated antigen could produce tolerance in normal animals, but only at doses of greater than 5 mg. The tolerizing injection induced a primary antibody response in normal birds in all cases, but a secondary response could not be obtained in animals rendered tolerant at the T cell level. Establishment of tolerance appeared to be very rapid, and animals remained refractory to induction of DH for at least 3 weeks after the tolerizing injection. The mode in which the antigen was presented to the animals appeared to be crucial in determining whether tolerance or sensitivity would be established. 相似文献

The question addressed in this report was whether immunological processes which culminate in in vivo expression and augmentation as well as suppression of delayed effector cell activity are mirrored by events that can be quantified in vitro. For this purpose the previously characterized murine model of delayed hypersensitivity (DHS), which employs SJL/J mice immunized with aggregated human γ-globulin (AHGG) in complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA) was employed. The results indicated that lymph node cells (LNC) from cyclophosphamide (CY)-pretreated, AHGG-CFA immunized mice expressed increased proliferation in the presence of HGG and concanavalin A (Con A) but decreased LPS responsiveness compared with LNC from equivalently immunized but non-CY-treated animals. It was also found that LNC from CY-treated, AHGG-CFA immunized mice that were pretreated with aqueous HGG (aqHGG), but not aqueous bovine serum albumin (aqBSA), evidenced a markedly decreased capacity to proliferate in the presence of HGG compared with LNC from equivalent animals that were not pretreated with aqHGG. This suppressive effect was not attributable to antibody production. These findings support the conclusion that in vitro quantitation of antigen-induced proliferation by LNC from HGG-DHS mice appears to correlate with modulatory effects which are observed in in vivo expression of DHS responses. 相似文献

The numbers and fate of antigen-binding cells (ABC) in neonatal and adult mice rendered tolerant to fluorescein (FL)-labeled heterologous gamma-globulins were studied. Similar numbers of FL-ABC were observed 1 day after tolerogen in both adult and neonatal mouse spleens: by 7 days after tolerization, no FL-ABC were observed in either case. Reinjection with FL-tolerogen at 7 days led to the detection of normal numbers of ABC in adult mice but significantly reduced numbers in neonates. This suggests that neonatal ABC either have been deleted or have failed to resynthesize surface receptors. Two weeks after tolerance induction, spleen cells from these tolerant mice were cultured with Escherichia coli lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a polyclonal B cell mitogen, or with specific antigen. Tolerant adult spleen cells made an equivalent anti-FL response to that of the uninjected controls when stimulated with LPS, but were unresponsive to specific antigenic triggering. In contrast, spleen cells from neonatally tolerized mice were unresponsive to either specific or nonspecific (LPS) stimulation. Thus, these neonatally tolerized spleen cells lose sensitivity to polyclonal-stimulating agents (along with their receptors), or more simply, are deleted. 相似文献

The role of membrane IgD in immune responses was examined by treating adult rats with anti-IgD. Anti-IgD when administered to rats in conjunction with optimal or suboptimal doses of either SRBC, a T-dependent antigen, or DNP-Ficoll, a T-independent antigen, enhanced the antibody responses. The greatest enhancement was obtained when anti-IgD was administered before the antigen. The effects of anti-IgD on antibody responses to SRBC were: (i) significant antibody responses to suboptimal antigen concentrations; (ii) greater antibody responses to optimal antigen concentrations; (iii) accelerated antibody responses; (iv) an early shift from IgM to IgG antibodies; (v) prolonged antibody responses. Similar effects on the immune response to DNP-Ficoll were observed with the exception that all antibodies were 2ME sensitive (IgM). These results suggest that an anamnestic type of immune response can be induced in anti-IgD-treated rats when given a primary antigen exposure. Injection of anti-IgD without SRBC or DNP-Ficoll induces B-cell proliferation without detectable antibody production to these antigens, indicating at least two signals are required for the enhanced antibody responses. 相似文献

After intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection of sheep erythrocytes (SRBC) or dinitrophenylated Ficoll (DNP-Ficoll), mice infected with the larval cestode, Mesocestoides corti, contain at least 20x fewer antibody-secreting cells (PFC) in their spleens (or spleens plus lymph nodes) than uninfected mice. By contrast, intravenous injection of antigen leads to normal PFC responses. Results of studies on the fate of labelled syngeneic erythrocytes and foreign proteins suggest that i.p. injected materials are retained in the inflamed peritoneal cavity. Sequestration of antigen, and its subsequent local destruction, presumably accounts for the markedly suppressed systemic immune responses induced by i.p. injected antigens in M. corti-infected mice. 相似文献

As previously reported, LPS and 8-derivatized guanosine (both generators of IL-1 release), as well as IL-1 itself interfere with the in vivo induction of tolerance to DHGG in A/J mice. In the present studies it was demonstrated that desensitization of either A/J or CBA/CaJ mice with LPS aborts the ability of LPS to interfere with the induction of tolerance to DHGG. The abrogation of the ability of LPS to interfere with tolerance by LPS desensitization is not the result of neutralization of LPS by antibody produced to LPS during desensitization. Desensitization with LPS also aborts the interference with tolerance induction by 7-methyl-8-oxoguanosine. LPS desensitization inhibits the ability of LPS and/or 7-methyl-8-oxoguanosine to both convert a tolerogenic signal to an immunogenic signal and interfere with the induction of a tolerant state to a subsequent injection of Ag. The effects resulting from desensitization may be in part attributed to the depletion of IL-1. LPS desensitization also modulates the antibody response to injection of the AG, AHGG. Desensitization with LPS markedly suppresses the antibody response to a subsequent injection of AHGG in CBA/CaJ mice. Desensitization with LPS also inhibits the anti-HGG antibody response in A/J mice, but in this strain its effect is dependent on the route of injection of AHGG. In an experiment directly comparing the responses of normal and desensitized A/J mice to either intravenous or intraperitoneal injection of AHGG, desensitization only suppressed the response in mice injected with AHGG i.p.. Desensitization with LPS also inhibits the ability of LPS to act as an adjuvant in a subsequent antibody response to AHGG. Not only does desensitization interfere with the primary antibody response to AHGG, but it also interferes with the secondary response, suggesting that the primary injection after desensitization induces a state of immunologic tolerance. 相似文献

The effects of infection with vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) on delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) to heterologous serum proteins were investigated in mice. DTH was induced by a subcutaneous injection of antigen in complete Freund's adjuvant. Infection with VSV at the time of immunization did not affect the level of DTH elicited 3 wk later. Marked augmentation of DTH was observed only when previously immunized mice were infected with VSV simultaneously with restimulation by soluble antigen; either soluble antigen or the virus infection alone was ineffective. The augmentation was specific to the antigen used for the restimulation; in the mouse previously immunized with both bovine serum albumin (BSA) and human alpha-globulin (HGG), DTH to BSA but not to HGG was augmented by injecting soluble BSA and VSV, and vice versa. These results strongly suggest that cells involved in the suppression of DTH manifestation became susceptible to the virus after specific antigenic restimulation and were then eliminated. 相似文献

The relationship between the antigen processing or accessory cell system and the maturation, with age, of antibody-producing capability was investigated in the mouse. This was done by analyzing the antibody responses given by immunocompetent cells from neonatal and from adult male mice in an identical antigen-processing system environment. Specifically, 4 x 10(7) normal spleen cells from either 12-day-old or adult mice were challenged with varying numbers of SRC in adult irradiated syngeneic recipients. The subsequent IgM and IgG2a PFC responses for both age groups were analyzed in terms of antigen dose-antibody response curves. Analyses of these curves indicate: 1) the dose of antigen required to elicit the optimal antibody response is essentially identical for both age groups and (2) the bandwidths obtained using neonatal donors are significantly narrower than those obtained with adult donors. Whereas, intact neonatal and adult mice exhibit differences in antigen optimal doses, these differences are eliminated when the immunocompetent cells are stimulated in the presence of identical antigen-processing systems. It is concluded that maturation of the antigen-processing system results in an increased sensitivity to antigen. Examination of the bandwidths of the dose-response curves revealed that immunocompetent cells from the young mice, either in situ or in adult irradiated recipients exhibited narrower bandwidths than did their adult counter parts. Thus, the increase in bandwidth observed with age is attributed to changes in the population of immunocompetent cells--perhaps a reflection of increased diversity, and is not due to the antigen-processing system. Quantitation of the antigen-processing function using accessory cell-depleted and partially restored mice indicated that when IgG responses were compared a higher frequency of accessory cells was demonstrated in adultspleens as opposed to neonatal spleens. 相似文献

Mice protected against Schistosoma mansoni infection by intradermal (i.d.) immunization with nonliving larval or adult worm antigens plus bacterial adjuvant developed 24-hr skin test responsiveness to schistosome antigens with the histologic features of delayed hypersensitivity. Intraperitoneal antigen injection elicited a mononuclear cell-enriched exudative population containing macrophages activated for direct cytotoxicity against schistosomula and tumor cell targets. This was likely to be due to in vivo exposure to macrophage-activating lymphokines, since these cells were unresponsive to further lymphokine stimulation in vitro and splenocytes from immunized mice reacted to specific in vitro antigen challenge by production of lymphokines capable of conferring larvacidal activity upon control macrophages. In contrast, mice treated with schistosome antigens by i.v. injection, which were not protected against challenge infection, failed to develop delayed hypersensitivity or activated macrophages in response to specific antigen challenge in vivo, and the titers of macrophage-activating lymphokine produced by in vitro antigen-stimulated splenocytes from these mice were threefold to fourfold lower than those produced by cells from animals immunized by the i.d. route. Thus, sensitization for cell-mediated immune responses including lymphokine production and macrophage activation correlated with induction of resistance to S. mansoni in this model of vaccination. 相似文献

Cellular mechanism of primary anti-Thy-1 antibody responses in vitro induced by uniquely immunogenic thymocyte antigens 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Thy-1 antigens are the only cell membrane antigens known to be able to induce primary antibody responses in vitro. We have shown that antigens from the thymocytes of mice and rats were highly immunogenic in cultures of murine spleen cells for the induction of Thy-1.1-specific plaque-forming cell responses, whereas antigens from other tissues, including brains and bone marrow, were poorly immunogenic, if at all. The thymocyte-specific Thy-1 immunogenicity was carried by disrupted cell membranes, and the specific activity for inducing responses was closely linked to Thy-1. We then tried to determine the mechanism of anti-Thy-1 antibody responses in vitro that were induced by the uniquely immunogenic thymocyte antigens. The thymocyte Thy-1 antigens behaved as T cell-independent class 2 (TI-2) antigens: they induced responses in athymic nude mice but not in CBA/N mice with a B cell defect. The apparent TI-2 responses to thymocyte Thy-1 did, however, require Thy-1+ cells in the responder, similar to anti-DNP-Ficoll responses. The full development of the anti-Thy-1 responses required the participation of splenic adherent cells (SAC). Nevertheless, the mechanism of the SAC dependency of anti-Thy-1 responses did not involve antigen presentation to lymphocytes by antigen-pulsed SAC, which contrasted with the finding that the presentation of antigen by live SAC to lymphocytes was indispensable for responses to DNP-Ficoll. The poor Thy-1 responsiveness of SAC-depleted spleen cells was fully restored by the addition of soluble factors (IL 1-like molecules) released from SAC into the culture, which did not replace the SAC-requirement of responses to DNP-Ficoll. It was concluded from these results that Thy-1 or Thy-1-linked structures on thymocyte membranes have an intrinsic activity to directly signal either TI-2 B cells or immature T cells, or both, for activation in the presence of soluble factors released from adherent accessory cells. This conclusion is discussed in relation to a hypothetical view that the thymocyte Thy-1 would physiologically mediate cell-to-cell interactions among special subsets of lymphocytes under thymic influence. 相似文献

The effects of local antigenic exposure on the responsiveness of systemic T cells were evaluated after C3H mice were given drinking water containing 6% bovine serum albumin (BSA) for 10 days and challenged sc with 1.0 mg BSA in adjuvant 28 days after the initiation of antigen feeding. During the first 28 days, no evidence of in vitro antigen-induced proliferation [( 3H]thymidine incorporation) was detected in whole lymphocyte populations from the peripheral lymph nodes (PLN), spleen, or mesenteric nodes. In contrast, PLN cells treated with anti-Lyt-1 plus complement (C) had a significant proliferative response only if the cells were obtained during the first 6 days of antigen ingestion. Lymphoid cells from the same animals, treated with anti-Lyt-2 and C, did not respond to antigen. Two or 4 days after the injection, given on day 28, whole PLN cell populations from antigen-fed mice showed proliferation. No response was observed with PLN cells obtained 8 days after injection. Shortening the interval between the initiation of feeding and parenteral challenge partially restored proliferative responses detected 8 days after injection. Cultures prepared 4 days after simultaneous oral and parenteral antigenic exposure showed proliferation equal to or greater than cultures from mice that received only the injection. These data show that systemic T cell responsiveness is not eliminated by ingestion of soluble antigen, but rather is modulated in a manner previously detected in the humoral immune system. 相似文献
