It was demonstrated in this work that rabbit antimouse serum against the aggregated immunoglobulins (RAAS) and mouse serum against the aggregated mouse immunoglobulins (MAAS) inhibited the rosette-forming B-cells (RFC) on the 5th day after the immunization of mice CBA with SRBC in a dose of 5 X 10(-8) cells in vitro in 1:20--1:80, and 1:10--1:40 dilutions in 83--55 and 72--39%, respectively. In difference from RAAS, MAAS in a dilution of 1:20 induced a statistically significant suppression of the antigen-binding receptors of RFC of-B type in the intact animals, and on the 8th--9th day after their immunization with SRBC. In vivo MAAS induced inactivation of the antigen-binding receptors of B-lymphocytes only. Results of the work carried out served as a confirmation of the fact that immunoglobulins in the form of an antigen-antibody complex (functioning in the capacity of the antigen-binding receptors) were sorbed on B-lymphocytes of the spleen. 相似文献

The paper describes the effect of mouse antiserum against isologous aggregated immunoglobulins (termed MAAS) on the kinetics of rosette-forming and antibody-forming cells (RFC and AFC, respectively) in mice immunized with SRBC. MAAS effect was assessed in vivo by injecting this serum for 5 days to mice CBA, combining the first injection with the injection of 5.10(7) SRBC. MAAS administration to mice immunized with SRBC induced a marked reduction of RFC in the spleen on the 5th and 9th days after the immunization. At the same periods MAAS produced no significant effect on the proliferation of AFC producing IgM-hemagglutinins. At the same time MAAS intensified the IgG-AFC proliferation in the period of the maximal content of these cells in the spleen of the immunized mice. After the MAAS absorption with the immune complexes formed by the mouse IgG-antibodies this serum largely lost its capacity to block RFC in vivo. On the basis of the data obtained it is suggested that the property of MAAS to influence the accumulation of RFC and AFC producing IgG-hemagglutinins is caused by the factor reacting with the immune complex formed by mouse IgG-antibodies. Possibly this factor represented antibodies against the aggregated immunoglobulins of this class. 相似文献

Mice immunized with glutaraldehyde-fixed sheep red blood cells (G-SRBC) show delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) reactions to G-SRBC or SRBC. The specificity of the DTH reaction of mice sensitized with glutaraldehyde-fixed antigens is similar to that found after sensitization with unfixed antigens. The dose-response curve for sensitization by glutaraldehyde-fixed SRBC was very different from the curve for normal SRBC. At low doses, both antigens were effective in sensitizing to show DTH but neither induced an antibody response. However, at high antigen doses, only the glutaraldehyde-fixed antigen was efficient in sensitizing to show DTH and it failed to raise an antibody titer. Spleen cells of mice sensitized with fixed RBC can transfer DTH locally but if the donor cells are irradiated (500 R), the transfer is abrogated. In contrast, the transfer of DTH by spleen cells of mice immunized with unfixed antigen is not affected by 500 R. The transfer of DTH by spleen cells of mice immunized with fixed antigen can be blocked by “in vitro desensitization” while the transfer of DTH by spleen cells from mice primed with normal antigen is resistant to “in vitro desensitization.” These results suggest that immunization of mice with different physical states of the same antigen can result in the activation of antigen-specific T cells which exhibit markedly different properties. 相似文献

This study was designed to determine the role of the sensitization route and the spleen in the development of delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) to dengue virus in mice. DTH was measured by footpad swelling response. Strong but transient DTH was produced in cyclophosphamide (CY) pretreated mice sensitized subcutaneously (s.c.) or intravenously (i.v.) with dengue virus type 4. Subcutaneous inoculation of virus in incomplete Freund's adjuvant (IFA) further enhanced the DTH elicited. The time course of DTH generated by s.c. and i.v. sensitization were similar with the peak reactivity seen on day 6 after sensitization. Poor DTH was observed in mice given an i.p. inoculation even when CY and/or IFA were used. Intracerebral (i.c.) inoculation also sensitized mice poorly. Splenectomized mice showed enhanced DTH response when compared to intact mice. In contrast to intact mice, pretreatment of splenectomized mice with CY did not alter the DTH level. Splenectomized mice inoculated s.c. with virus in IFA showed poorer DTH than mice sensitized with virus alone. 相似文献

Mice pretreated with an intravenous (i.v.) injection of BCG (BCG-sensitized mice) and then immunized intravenously with a high dose (10(8)--10(9)) of sheep red blood cells (SRBC) 2 weeks later developed strong delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) to SRBC, as in mice pretreated with cyclophosphamide (CY) (CY-treated mice) and then immunized with SRBC 2 days later; normal mice given the same dose of SRBC did not show such DTH. The mechanism of this strong DTH to SRBC which developed in BCG-sensitized mice was studied, by comparing it with that in CY-treated mice. The transfer of either whole spleen cells or thymus cells, but not serum, obtained from mice immunized with i.v. injections of 10(9) SRBC 4 days previously (hyperimmune mice) did not suppress either the induction or the expression of DTH to SRBC in BCG-sensitized mice, but suppressed those in CY-treated mice. The suppressor cells were SRBC-specific T cells. Adoptive transfer of DTH to SRBC by spleen cells from either BCG-sensitized mice of CY-treated mice to hyperimmune recipients failed. The adoptive transfer of DTH from BCG-sensitized mice to normal recipients also failed if the spleen cells from hyperimmune mice were cotransferred. Whole body irradiation (600 rad) of mice 2 hr before or after the time of immunization with SRBC reduced significantly DTH to SRBC in both BCG-sensitized and CY-treated mice. It was noticed that the total number of spleen cells in BCG-sensitized mice was 3--4 times larger than that in CY-treated mice. From these results, we conclude that the entity of effector T cells of DTH to SRBC induced in BCG-sensitized mice and in CY-treated mice was not different in terms of susceptibility to suppressor T cells and irradiation, but that the total numbers of effector T cells generated in these mice differed remarkably, resulting in the above-described different responsiveness to suppressor T cells transferred passively. 相似文献

Immune reconstitution in the immunodeficient chicken by transfer of embryonic lymphoid cells 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Embryonic chickens were rendered immunodeficient by in ovo injection of homologous IgM on the 10th embryonic day. The immunodeficient embryos were intravenously given lymphoid cells taken from normal embryonic bursa, spleen or thymus on the 15th embryonic day. Gain of splenic or bursal weight, natural antibodies to sheep red blood cells (SRBC), frequencies of rosette forming cells (RFC) binding to SRBC or dinitrophenyl-SRBC (DNP-SRBC) and of immunoglobulin bearing cells (IBC) in the bursa and the spleen were investigated to assess the effect of transferred cells during the embryonic stage. Transferred bursal and splenic cells showed an ability to restore the frequency of RFC or IBC in the recipients. However, reversion from the immunodeficient state was not observed in the thymic cell transfer. These findings suggested that the cells derived from embryonic bursa and spleen contained stem cells which developed into RFC and also into precursors of IBC. 相似文献

The effects of cholera toxin (CT) on delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) to sheep red blood cells (SRBC) were studied in mice sensitized by intranasal administration of SRBC. CT (1 μg/mouse), given intranasally together with SRBC (2 × 107/mouse), induced a maximally enhanced DTH response, which reached its peak around 7 days after sensitization, and also induced an accelerated DTH response upon a second administration of SRBC 28 days later. The ability of CT to enhance the DTH to SRBC was lost, either when CT was administered via the intraperitoneal or subcutaneous route, or when CT was introduced into the nasal site from which a large proportion of the SRBC was discharged 2 days after SRBC administration. These results indicate that the cells that are located in the nasal site and participate in the earlier events of DTH response were most affected by CT. The following effects of CT on the earlier events, which occur within 24 hr after the intranasal administration of both CT and SRBC, appeared to be involved in the mechanisms by which CT enhances DTH to SRBC: (i) facilitation of the penetration of the antigen into the nasal tissue; (ii) reinforcement of the migration of immunocompetent cells from the blood to the nasal tissues; (iii) promotion of the ability of Ia-positive macrophages to present the antigenic determinants to T cells; (iv) facilitation of the differentiation of primed T cells to DTH-effector T cells. 相似文献

This paper describes a model system for studying the role of helper T cells in the induction of delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH). Cyclophosphamide- (CP) treated mice sensitized with antigen 3 days later develop high levels of delayed-type immunity; however, DTH cannot be demonstrated in mice that are sensitized with antigen 1 day after drug treatment. The inability to respond to antigen 1 day after CP treatment can be restored if either normal or low-dose primed spleen cells are transferred at the time of sensitization. Although irradiated (1500 rad) normal spleen cells are unable to restore DTH, such treatment has no effect on the primed spleen cell population. The lymphocytes responsible for restoring the DTH response were identified as T cells, in that treatment with anti-Thy-1.2 serum and C abrogated their effect. Furthermore, restoration of the DTH response was dependent on the presence of antigen at the time of lymphocyte transfer; irradiated primed cells could not transfer DTH alone. The DTH effector cells in reconstituted mice were identified as originating from the host and not from the transferred cell population. This was accomplished by using anti-H-2 serum to identify the source of the DTH effector cells after transferring parental (H-2b) irradiated primed spleen cells into CP-treated F1 mice (H-2b,k). Thus, the irradiated transferred cells are behaving as helper T cells and promoting the development of DTH effector cells in the host. 相似文献

The delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) reaction, a peripheral expression of cell-mediated immunity is still a crucial in vivo immunological test. Nevertheless, the biological significance of its time course remains unclear. Thus, an exhaustive study of DTH was undertaken in mice immunized with increasing doses of sheep red blood cells (SRBC) inoculated intravenously (iv) or subcutaneously. The results showed that overall DTH reactions peaked at 18 hr except in mice iv immunized with the lowest doses (10(5) and 10(6)) and elicited at Day 4. The protracted DTH reaction was shown to be associated with an histological picture of tuberculin-type reaction. A part of the 18-hr DTH reaction is mediated by serum in mice inoculated with large doses of SRBC; nevertheless, numeration by limiting dilution analysis of circulating DTH cells showed that the frequency of these cells correlates with the 18-hr DTH level. The protracted DTH shown at 42 and 48 hr, 4 days after immunization with 10(5) and 10(6) SRBC, could not be transferred in naive recipients with immune spleen cells; it was independent of the antigen life span and did not result from immunization modulation at the bone marrow level on recruitable cells. 相似文献

Secondary delayed-type hypersensitivity to sheep red blood cells in mice: a long-lived memory phenomenon 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Immunization of mice with sheep red blood cells (SRBC) can induce the capacity to react with a secondary delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) immune response upon a booster injection of the antigen. In this paper the kinetics of secondary DTH after intravenous (iv) immunization with various doses of SRBC was studied by means of the foot swelling test. Dose-response studies showed that maximal secondary DTH responsiveness was obtained by iv administration of a priming dose of 3 × 104 SRBC and a booster dose of 3 × 105 SRBC 2 months later. Secondary DTH in such treated mice was characterized by an earlier appearance of the state of DTH, an earlier peak reactivity, and an increased intensity of the DTH response as compared to the primary DTH response. Up to 1 year after priming, a secondary DTH could be elicited, indicating the long-lived character of this memory phenomenon. With increasing intervals between the priming and booster injection, a gradual shift to a later time, of the peak secondary DTH reactivity was found. The capacity of primed mice to react with an increased intensity upon a booster injection could be adoptively transferred into lethally irradiated recipients by means of spleen cells obtained from primed mice. This phenomenon appeared to be highly dependent on Thy 1.2+ cells and on the booster dose of SRBC. The DTH reaction, evoked in such recipients, showed a prolonged time course. 相似文献

Murine lymphocytes from spleen, lymph node, and thymus were examined for IgM complex receptors. Lymphocytes from all three organs were found to bind SRBC sensitized with IgM from various sources including: primary anti-SRBC serum, murine and rabbit anti-Escherichia coli LPS sera, and a murine IgM myeloma (MOPC 104E). Rosette formation by lymphocytes with IgM-sensitized SRBC was inhibited by soluble antigen-IgM complexes but not by IgM or antigen alone. Rosette formation was also inhibited by human IgM (Fc)5mu but not by Fab mu. Antiserum and complement treatment of the cells and subsequent recovery of the viable cells by trypsinization, filtration, and washing revealed the IgM rosette-forming cell (RFC) in the thymus to be a T cell. Spleen on the other hand was found to contain both B and T cells capable of binding IgM sensitized SRBC. Removal of both B and T cells from spleen cell suspensions eliminated all IgM RFC. The IgM complex receptor was found to be trypsin insensitive. Anti-Ig column fractionation enriched IgM RFC in spleen and lymph node suspensions passed through the columns, whereas cells bearing surface Ig, IgG complex receptors, and C3 receptors were retained in the columns. 相似文献

A method of obtaining antisera against isologous aggregated mouse immunoglobulins is described. This serum designated MAAS blocked in vitro the antigen-binding receptors of the immune rosette-forming cells. MAAS was injected to mice immunized with SRBC. In comparision with the immunized mice given normal isologous serum rosette-forming B-cells were absent in the spleen of mice given MAAS at the peak of isologous response. But the antibody-forming cell count was not decreased under the influence of MAAS. 相似文献

The injection of 6 x 10(9) sheep red blood cells (SRBC) to mice suppressed the delayed type hypersensitivity (DTH) in situ and activated spleen T cells which prevent sensitization of syngeneic recipients. Similar effect was obtained when suppressor cells induced in F1 hybrids were transferred to parental mice. Suppression was also reached in allogeneic strain combination if suppressor cells of donors and recipients shared the major histocompatibility complex (MHC). Studied performed with recombinant and mutant strains revealed that the prerequisite for interaction of DTH suppressors and effectors was the identity of K-region of MHC. Passive transfer of DTH to SRBC was also possible if donors and recipients were identical in K-region of MHC. It is believed that interaction between DTH suppressors and effectors is restricted by a region of MHC whose product takes part in antigen representation. 相似文献

Using the capsular polysaccharide of Klebsiella pneumoniae (CPS-K) as a polyclonal B-cell activator (PBA) and sheep red blood cells (SRBC) as a T-dependent antigen, we studied the effects of PBA on the functions of various subpopulations of B cells in the immune response of mice to T-dependent antigen. Antibody-forming cells (AFC) of IgM and IgG types were estimated as anti-SRBC direct and indirect plaque-forming cells (PFC), and the B cells with precursor activities involving generation of AFC and supplementing new B cells as rosette-forming cells (RFC) of the B-cell type. Stimulation of normal mice by CPS-K caused a definite increase in the number of direct PFC but not in that of indirect PFC and RFC in the spleens. The responsiveness of spleen cells of CPS-K-treated mice to generate PFC and RFC responses to a subsequent injection of SRBC was lower than that of CPS-K-untreated normal mice. In this case, the responsiveness to generate RFC and indirect PFC was inhibited more strongly by CPS-K than that to generate direct PFC. When CPS-K was injected into normal mice simultaneously with SRBC, CPS-K never decreased but increased the levels of PFC and RFC responses to SRBC. In the spleens of SRBC-primed mice, the number of RFC was markedly decreased following injection of CPS-K, the number of direct PFC was increased only slightly and the number of indirect PFC was increased very slightly. The responsiveness of spleen cells of these CPS-K-treated SRBC-primed mice to generate secondary PFC and RFC responses to a subsequent injection of SRBC was much lower than that of CPS-K-untreated SRBC-primed mice. In this case, the responsiveness to generate the secondary RFC and indirect PFC responses was more strongly inhibited by CPS-K than that to generate the secondary direct PFC response. When CPS-K was injected into SRBC-primed mice simultaneously with the secondary injection of SRBC, there were marked decreases in the level of the secondary RFC response and slight decreases in that of the secondary indirect PFC response, but little change in that of the secondary direct PFC response. From these results it has been concluded that CPS-K provides the positive signal (the minor action) and the negative signal (the major action) to various subpopulations of B cells functioning at various stages of the immune response to T-dependent antigen in different ways, and acts to regulate the levels of B-cell responses to the antigen-mediated positive signal. 相似文献

Immunomodulating activities of staphylococcal enterotoxins. I. Effects on in vivo antibody responses and contact sensitivity reaction 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

The immunomodulating effects of staphylococcal enterotoxins on in vivo immune responses in C57BL/6 mice were examined. Of the five serological types A (SEA), B, C, D, and E (SEE), only SEA and SEE markedly suppressed the antibody response to sheep red blood cells (SRBC) when injected 1 day before or on the day of immunization with SRBC. Further study of SEA revealed that it did not affect the antibody response to a thymus-independent antigen, salmonella flagella, but did affect the T-cell-mediated immune response. Contact sensitivity to dinitrofluorobenzene (DNFB) was suppressed when SEA was injected before sensitization or before challenge with DNFB, indicating that SEA affected both the afferent and efferent phases of DNFB contact sensitivity. As the suppression of DNFB contact sensitivity could be transferred by anti-Thy-1.2 antibody-sensitive spleen cells of SEA injected donors into normal or DNFB-sensitized recipients, the suppression was thought to be an active one. However, SEA could augment the DNFB contact sensitivity when injected on the third day after sensitization with DNFB. These results indicate that the immunomodulating effects of SEA can be mediated by the T-cell function. 相似文献

Humoral and cell-mediated immune responses to sheep red blood cells (SRBC) were studied in mice infected experimentally with Mycoplasma pulmonis. The hemagglutinating (HA) antibody against SRBC was evaluated at 0, 3, 5, 7, 14, 21 and 28 days postinfection (PI). Antibody tiers during all days PI were depressed significantly (p less than 0.05) in infected mice as compared to noninfected controls. The HA antibody, which is of the IgM class, peaks at day 5 PI. There is no shift in the kinetics of the humoral response in M. pulmonis infected mice. Cellular immune responses were evaluated by a delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) reaction and the lymphocyte transformation technique. Mice were sensitized at 0,3,5,7,14, 21 and 28 days PI with SRBC and challenged by footpad injection of SRBC 7 days later. The DTH reaction measured at 24 hours after challenge was depressed significantly (p less than 0.05) in all infected animals. After a transient enhancement on day 3 PI, the DTH responses remained depressed through day 28 PI. The lymphocyte transformation test showed a significantly (p less than 0.05) depressed response except on days 5 and 7 PI. These results indicate that M. pulmonis infection in mice suppresses the humoral antibody and cell-mediated immune responses. 相似文献

Suppression of delayed hypersensitivity in mice receiving a massive dose of xenogeneic erythrocytes]
The injection of 6x109 sheep red blood cells to mice suppresses delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) in situ and activates spleen cells which prevent sensitization of recipients. Preliminary thymectomy of donors and the treatment of cell suspensions with anti-T-globulin abolish suppression of DTH. Pretreatment of mice with low doses of cyclophosphamide (CY) enhances antibody formation and DTH. Higher doses of CY increase the DTH reaction but inhibit antibody formation. The data obtained allow to conclude that suppression of DTH is due to the activity of short-living, intensively proliferating cells of thymic origin and possibly to B cells. 相似文献

The specific delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) response was evaluated in resistant (A/SN) and susceptible (B10.A) mice intraperitoneally infected with yeasts from a virulent (Pb18) or from a non-virulent (Pb265)Paracoccidioides brasiliensis isolates. Both strains of mice were footpad challenged with homologous antigens. Pb18 infected A/SN mice developed an evident and persistent DTH response late in the course of the disease (90th day on) whereas B10.A animals mounted a discrete and ephemeral DTH response at the 14th day post-infection. A/SN mice infected with Pb265 developed cellular immune responses whereas B10.A mice were almost always anergic. Histological analysis of the footpads of infected mice at 48 hours after challenge showed a mixed infiltrate consisting of predominantly mononuclear cells. Previous infection of resistant and susceptible mice with Pb18 did not alter their DTH responses against heterologous unrelated antigens (sheep red blood cells and dinitrofluorobenzene) indicating that the observed cellular anergy was antigen-specific. When fungal related antigens (candidin and histoplasmin) were tested in resistant mice, absence of cross-reactivity was noted. Thus, specific DTH responses againstP. brasiliensis depend on both the host's genetically determined resistance and the virulence of the fungal isolate.Abbreviations DTH

The nature of primed precursor T cells (primed pre-TD), capable of differentiating into effector T cells (TD) that mediate delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH), was investigated in B10 mice which were primed by intravenous (iv) injection of various doses of sheep red blood cells (SRBC). The presence of primed pre-TD was detected by the ability of T cells in the spleens from primed mice, which were treated in vitro with pertussis toxin and then transferred into naive recipient mice, to generate DTH in the recipient mice 14 days after transfer. The primed pre-TD were induced antigen specifically 1 day after mice were primed by iv injection of a suboptimal (10(3)), an optimal (10(5)), or supraoptimal (10(9)) dose of SRBC. They were replaced by TD 4 days after priming in optimally sensitized mice, while they were maintained without generating TD for at least 5 weeks after priming in mice primed with either a suboptimal or a supraoptimal dose of SRBC. They were L3T4-positive and dense cells, fractionated in the high-density layers on a discontinuous Percoll density gradient, and capable of transforming into less dense TD, fractionated in the low-density layers. These results indicate that primed pre-TD, which are induced by an antigen signal and then can be activated by a nonspecific stimulus, are present not only in responsive mice but also in unresponsive mice, suggesting that either the generation of TD from primed pre-TD or primed pre-TD alone is the decisive factor for either responsiveness or unresponsiveness. 相似文献

Cytolytic T lymphocytes (CTL) specific for trinitrophenyl (TNP)-altered self antigens can be generated in vivo through the simultaneous injection of TNP-modified syngeneic spleen cells and H-2-compatible, minor histocompatibility locus (Mls)-disparate auxiliary spleen cells into the footpads of mice. The latter stimulates host helper cells to produce differentiative and proliferative signals required for the generation of CTL. Advent of this protocol allowed investigation of the initiation of two different cell-mediated immune responses, delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) and the generation of CTL, in the same experimental animal. Mice presensitized for CTL were able to develop DTH as well as normal controls. However, when mice were first sensitized for DTH, they were thereafter incapable of generating CTL. This effect was hapten specific, relatively long lasting, and preventable by treating mice with cyclophosphamide before sensitizing for DTH. Adoptive transfer of lymphoid cells from DTH-immune mice conferred DTH reactivity upon naive recipients but not a suppressed CTL response. Therefore, cells mediating DTH were not responsible for suppression of CTL. The mechanism for suppression has been discussed from the viewpoint of the suppressor-T-cell circuits that are known to be generated when animals are sensitized for DTH and which are susceptible to treatment with cyclophosphamide. 相似文献
