Antibody response against a possible arthritogenic epitope on human type II collagen induced by anti-idiotypic antibody 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
We reported the presence of three distinct epitopes commonly present on murine and human type II collagen (CII), observed using mAb. To investigate the possible involvement of these epitopes in collagen-induced arthritis, we raised rabbit anti-idiotypic antibodies that may bear the internal image of these epitopes. Anti-idiotypic antibodies developed against three anti-CII mAb designated as 1-5, 2-14, and 2-15 were demonstrated to recognize idiotype expressed on Ag-binding site (paratope) of their related mAb. Anti-CII antibody response specific for a given epitope could be induced in DBA/1J mice upon immunization with anti-idiotypic antibodies coupled to keyhole limpet hemocyanin. Anti-idiotypic antibody to 1-5 antibody in particular could stimulate all DBA/1J mice for production of anti-CII antibody possessing Ag specificity and idiotype similar to those of 1-5 antibody. Although the mice immunized with anti-1-5 antibody alone did not develop arthritis, they did show a much more enhanced antibody response against a given epitope than did control mice non-treated with anti-idiotypic antibody upon the subsequent immunization with human CII. Some of the mice immunized with anti-1-5 antibody and challenged with human CII developed arthritis, whereas the control mice did not. These findings strongly suggest that a common epitope recognized by 1-5 antibody might be involved in the induction of arthritis. 相似文献

We reported that rabbit anti-idiotypic antibody (Ab2) against mAb, termed 1-5 (Ab1) and reactive with human type II collagen (CII) induced antibody response to CII in DBA/1J mice susceptible to collagen-induced arthritis. In the present study, we further characterized the anti-CII antibody response elicited by Ab2 with respect to epitope specificity, putative genetic background, and IgG subclass. Most of anti-CII antibodies (polyclonal Ab3) derived from Ab2-immunized mice were of the IgG1 subclass. We purified polyclonal Ab3, using a CII-coupled immunoadsorbent column and we developed monoclonal Ab3 from Ab2-immunized mice. Both purified polyclonal Ab3 and two monoclonal Ab3s specifically reacted with a selected epitope on CII, recognized by Ab1. The anti-CII antibody response stimulated by Ab2 was observed in DBA/1J (H-2q, Igh-1c) and DBA/2 (H-2q, Igh-1c) mice, but not in the BALB/c (H-2d, Igh-1a) and C57BL/6 (H-2b, Igh-1b) strains, thereby suggesting that the anti-CII antibody response elicited by Ab2 is controlled by the Igh gene. 相似文献

Isolation of T cell line capable of protecting mice against collagen-induced arthritis 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11

A T cell line specific to human type II collagen (CII) was selected and propagated from DBA/1J mice immunized with human CII. The line cells were not reactive to type I or type III collagen of human origin, but they were cross-reactive to bovine, rat, and rabbit CII and they recognized both native and heat-denatured human CII. The cells were reactive to an N-terminal three-quarters fragment of human CII, produced by tadpole collagenase digestion of human CII, but not to a C-terminal one-quarter fragment of human CII. The cells showed Thy-1+, Lyt-1+, Lyt-2-, and L3T4+ phenotypes characteristic of T helper cells or delayed-type hypersensitive cells, determined by the immunofluorescence method. To clarify the role of T cells in the pathogenesis of collagen-induced arthritis, we inoculated this cell line into DBA/1J mice and found that they developed clinical arthritis, albeit at a low incidence. The cells attenuated by x-ray were capable of inducing resistance to the subsequent induction of collagen-induced arthritis of DBA/1J mice. The sera from mice protected by inoculation of the cell line exhibited anti-idiotypic antibody response against conventional and monoclonal anti-CII antibodies. Anti-T cell receptor response may be involved in the mechanism for the protective effect of the cell line against autoimmune murine arthritis. 相似文献

Antibodies against type II collagen (CII) are important in the development of collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) and possibly
also in rheumatoid arthritis. We have determined the fine specificity and arthritogenicity of the antibody response to CII
in chronic relapsing variants of CIA. Immunization with rat CII in B10.Q or B10.Q(BALB/c×B10.Q)F2 mice induces a chronic relapsing CIA. The antibody response to CII was determined by using triple-helical peptides of the
major B cell epitopes. Each individual mouse had a unique epitope-specific response and this epitope predominance shifted
distinctly during the course of the disease. In the B10.Q mice the antibodies specific for C1 and U1, and in the B10.Q(BALB/c×B10.Q)F2 mice the antibodies specific for C1, U1 and J1, correlated with the development of chronic arthritis. Injection of monoclonal
antibodies against these epitopes induced relapses in chronic arthritic mice. The development of chronic relapsing arthritis,
initially induced by CII immunization, is associated with an arthritogenic antibody response to certain CII epitopes. 相似文献

A cross-reactive idiotype on anti-collagen antibodies in collagen-induced arthritis: identification and relevance to disease 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Immunization of mice with type II collagen (CII) leads to the production of anti-CII antibodies and, in susceptible strains, to the induction of arthritis. Specifically purified anti-CII antibodies from arthritic DBA/1 mice were used to prepare a rabbit anti-idiotypic antiserum. This antiserum recognizes a cross-reactive idiotype (CRI) present on 20-25% of anti-CII antibodies from DBA/1 mice immunized with bovine CII. The CRI is not present on DBA/1 anti-trinitrophenyl, undetectable in normal Ig and not Igh allotype linked. The presence of this CRI was examined after antigen specific suppression of the anti-CII antibody response by intravenous administration of chick or bovine CII. While intravenous injection of bovine CII, prior to immunization with chick CII, greatly reduces both the incidence of arthritis and the anti-CII response, the fraction of anti-bovine CII which expresses the CRI is increased by this treatment. These findings suggest that the CRI characterizes a disease-unrelated fraction of anti-CII which recognizes bovine and chick CII, but probably not mouse CII. In addition, attempts at idiotypic regulation of arthritis incidence and antibody response by in vivo administration of anti-idiotypic serum also indicate that the CRI-bearing antibody is not important for the induction of arthritis. 相似文献

Mouse monoclonal anti-Id antibodies were generated against a mouse mAb (Ab-1) preparation specific for SV40 large tumor Ag (T-Ag). Four monoclonal anti-Id preparations each inhibited the binding of the monoclonal anti-SV40 T-Ag Ab-1 preparation to SV40 T-Ag. These anti-Id preparations appeared to recognize similar idiotopes on the monoclonal anti-SV40 T-Ag Ab-1 based on competitive cross-inhibition studies. One of these anti-Id preparations, designated 57B, was examined further for its in vivo modulatory capacity in mice. This anti-Id induced an Ab-3 response in BALB/c mice that recognized SV40 T-Ag (Ag+) and expressed an Id that was shared by the monoclonal anti-SV40 T-Ag Ab-1 preparation (Id+). The Id expressed on the Ab-3 differed from the Id induced in BALB/c mice immunized with the nominal SV40 T-Ag. Furthermore, characterization of the humoral immune response induced by anti-Id immunization indicated that the Ab-3 also recognized different epitopes on SV40 T-Ag when compared to the anti-SV40 T-Ag Ab-1 preparation used to generate the anti-Id. These studies indicate that monoclonal anti-Id can be used to induce humoral immune responses to a viral encoded tumor-associated Ag in vivo with 1) and Id specificity that differs from that expressed on antibodies produced by immunization with the nominal Ag and 2) an epitope specificity distinct from the Ab-1 preparation used for the production of the anti-Id. 相似文献

The effect of anti-adhesion molecule antibody on the development of collagen-induced arthritis. 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

In order to study how inflammatory cells including autoimmune lymphocytes interact with each other to develop collagen-induced arthritis (CIA), we injected monoclonal antibodies against mouse LFA-1 and ICAM-1 into DBA/1 mice immunized with type II collagen (CII). Both antibodies suppressed the development of CIA. These antibodies showed no effect on anti-CII antibody response, although they both significantly suppressed DTH response. It was suggested that anti-adhesion molecule antibodies suppress CIA mainly through their effect on cell-mediated immunity, without affecting humoral immunity under the conditions used. 相似文献

To investigate whether anti-idiotypic (anti-Id) antibodies activate T cells either directly or indirectly, we examined the ability of syngeneic anti-Id monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) to regulate idiotype (Id) expression, antigen-binding antibody production, and T-cell reactivity to antigen. Our idiotypic system consists of an anti-I-A mAb that carries an infrequently expressed Id. Using three syngeneic anti-Id mAbs (Ab2), we previously defined the idiotype of the 11-5.2.1.9 (11-5) anti-I-Ak mAb. Two of these mAbs, IIID1 and IA2, recognize the same or closely related epitopes on 11-5 and cross react with two additional anti-I-Ak mAbs, 8B and 39J; the third anti-Id mAb, VC6, recognizes a distinct epitope shared by 11-5 and 8B. In the present study, BALB/c (H-2d) mice were primed with varying doses of these anti-Ids and were then boosted with C3H (H-2k) spleen cells. Among 130 such primed mice, the syngeneic anti-Ids when tested at priming doses between 10 ng and 10 micrograms were unable to induce Id production. The priming anti-Id mAbs persisted in the serum of the mice and were detectable as late as 40 days after priming. Ab1 expression was not modulated in BALB/c mice immunized with KLH-coupled Ab2, however, this immunization elicited the production of Ab3 which shared idiotypes with 11-5, 8B, and 39J. BALB/c anti-C3H alloreactive T-cell clones were also not induced by anti-Id priming, nor could they be shown to bind directly to the three Ab2 used. Nevertheless, the proliferative response of one anti-I-Ak specific T-cell clone that recognizes the same epitope as 11-5, 8B, and 39J, was inhibited by the IIID1 and IA2 Ab2. Thus, a T cell can express an idiotype shared by a B cell, but the linked recognition of an Id-associated carrier determinant(s) by an alloreactive T cell is required to elicit an anti-Id antibody response. These results favor the possibility that the activation of T cells is not dependent upon their ability to bind to anti-Id, but rather on their capacity to respond to epitopes of Id-anti-Id antigen-antibody complexes formed on B cells. 相似文献

Antibodies against type II collagen (anti-CII) are arthritogenic and have a crucial role in the initiation of collagen-induced
arthritis. Here, we have determined the dependence of T and B cells in collagen-antibody-induced arthritis (CAIA) during different
phases of arthritis. Mice deficient for B and/or T cells were susceptible to the CAIA, showing that the antibodies induce
arthritis even in the absence of an adaptive immune system. To determine whether CII-reactive T cells could have a role in
enhancing arthritis development at the effector level of arthritis pathogenesis, we established a T cell line reactive with
CII. This T cell line was oligoclonal and responded to different post-translational forms of the major CII epitope at position
260–270 bound to the Aq class II molecule. Importantly, it cross-reacted with the mouse peptide although it is bound with lower affinity to the Aq molecule than the corresponding rat peptide. The T cell line could not induce clinical arthritis per se in Aq-expressing mice even if these mice expressed the major heterologous CII epitope in cartilage, as in the transgenic MMC (mutated
mouse collagen) mouse. However, a combined treatment with anti-CII monoclonal antibodies and CII-reactive T cells enhanced
the progression of severe arthritis. 相似文献

Introduction
Antibodies towards type II collagen (CII) are detected in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and in non-human primates and rodents with collagen induced arthritis (CIA). We have previously shown that antibodies specific for several CII-epitopes are pathogenic using monoclonal antibodies from arthritic mice, although the role of different anti-CII epitopes has not been investigated in detail in other species. We therefore performed an inter-species comparative study of the autoantibody response to CII in patients with RA versus monkeys and mice with CIA.Methods
Analysis of the full epitope repertoire along the disease course of CIA was performed using a library of CII triple-helical peptides. The antibody responses to the major CII epitopes were analyzed in sera and synovial fluid from RA patients, and in sera from rhesus monkeys (Macaca mulatta), common marmosets (Callithrix jacchus) and mice.Results
Many CII epitopes including the major C1, U1, and J1 were associated with established CIA and arginine residues played an important role in the anti-CII antibody interactions. The major epitopes were also recognized in RA patients, both in sera and even more pronounced in synovial fluid: 77% of the patients had antibodies to the U1 epitope. The anti-CII immune response was not restricted to the anti-citrulline protein antibodies (ACPA) positive RA group.Conclusion
CII conformational dependent antibody responses are common in RA and are likely to originate from rheumatoid joints but did not show a correlation with ACPA response. Importantly, the fine specificity of the anti-CII response is similar with CIA in monkeys and rodents where the recognized epitopes are conserved and have a major pathogenic role. Thus, anti-CII antibodies may both contribute to, as well as be the consequence of, local joint inflammation. 相似文献11.
Monoclonal anti-idiotype induces protection against the cytotoxicity of the trichothecene mycotoxin T-2 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

An IgG1 mAb, designated HD11, specific for the trichothecene mycotoxin T-2 and capable of neutralizing its cytotoxicity was used to generate a syngeneic monoclonal anti-Id antibody. The generated anti-Id mAb, designated DE8, specifically bound to HD11 anti-T-2 mAb, and not to IgG1 mAb of irrelevant specificity or to normal mouse Ig. DE8 inhibited the binding of HD11 anti-T-2 to T-2-BSA-coated plates, whereas a control anti-Id mAb did not, suggesting recognition of an Id determinant associated with the T-2 binding site of HD11. Moreover, the binding of HD11 to DE8 and that of DE8 to HD11 were specifically inhibited by free T-2 mycotoxin. DE8 mAb was efficient in abrogating the protective effect of HD11 in the cytotoxicity of T-2 on the human epidermoid carcinoma cell line Hep-2. In vivo immunization of BALB/c mice with DE8 conjugated to KLH induced an anti-T-2 antibody titer comparable to that obtained with T-2-OVA immunization, whereas immunization with unconjugated DE8 resulted in a lower titered anti-T-2 response. Immunization with DE8-keyhole limpet or with unconjugated DE8 induced anti-T-2 antibody responses characterized by expression of "HD11-like" Id and by protection against T-2 cytotoxicity. However, the T-2-OVA-induced anti-T-2 response lacked the HD11+ Id and was only partially protective against T-2 cytotoxicity. This represents the first demonstration of the use of an anti-Id based vaccine in the in vivo induction of a protective antibody response against the cytotoxicity of a nonproteinaceous, small m.w. biologic toxin, whose very toxic nature precludes its use as the immunogen. 相似文献

Joint cartilage is attacked in both autoimmune inflammatory and osteoarthritic processes. Type IX collagen (CIX) is a protein
of importance for cartilage integrity and stability. In this study we have backcrossed a transgenic disruption of the col9a1 gene, which leads to an absence of CIX, into two different inbred mouse strains, DBA/1 and B10.Q. None of the CIX-deficient
mice developed observable clinical or microscopic osteoarthritis, but DBA/1 male mice had more pronounced enthesopathic arthritis,
the so-called stress-induced arthritis. Both DBA/1 and B10.Q strains are susceptible to the induction of collagen-induced
arthritis, and CIX deficiency in both strains led to the development of a more severe arthritis than in the controls. Induction
of arthritis with monoclonal antibodies against type II collagen (CII) led to an earlier arthritis in the paws that also involved
the knee joints. The antibodies used, which were specific for the J1 and the C1I epitopes of CII, initiate their arthritogenic attack by binding to cartilage. The C1I-specific antibodies bound to cartilage better in CIX-deficient mice than in wild-type animals, demonstrating that the lack
of CIX in cartilage leads to an increased accessibility of structures for antibody binding and thus making the joints more
vulnerable to inflammatory attack. These findings accentuate the importance of cartilage stability; cartilage disrupted as
a result of genetic disorders could be more accessible and vulnerable to an autoimmune attack by pathogenic antibodies. 相似文献

Introduction
Immune responses against collagen type II (CII) are crucial for the development of collagen-induced arthritis (CIA). The aim of the present study was to evaluate and compare the CII-directed T cell and antibody specificity at different time points in the course of CIA using two mouse strains on the B10 genetic background - B10.Q, expressing Aq MHC class II molecules, and B10.DR4.Ncf1*/*, expressing human rheumatoid arthritis-associated MHC II DR4 molecules (DRA*0101/DRB*0401).Methods
B10.Q and B10.DR4.Ncf1*/* mice were immunized with CII emulsified in adjuvant and development of CIA was assessed. T cells from draining lymph nodes were restimulated in vitro with CII peptides and interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) levels in culture supernatants were evaluated by ELISA. CII-specific antibody levels in serum samples were measured by ELISA.Results
At four different CIA time points we analyzed T cell specificity to the immunodominant CII epitope 259-273 (CII259-273) and several posttranslationally modified forms of CII259-273 as well as antibody responses to three B cell immunodominant epitopes on CII (C1, U1, J1). Our data show that CII-specific T and B cell responses increase dramatically after disease onset in both strains and are sustained during the disease course. Concerning anti-CII antibody fine specificity, during all investigated stages of CIA the B10.Q mice responded predominantly to the C1 epitope, whereas the B10.DR4.Ncf1*/* mice also recognized the U1 epitope. In the established disease phase, T cell reactivity toward the galactosylated CII259-273 peptide was similar between the DR4- and the Aq-expressing strains whereas the response to the non-modified CII peptide was dramatically enhanced in the DR4 mice compared with the B10.Q. In addition, we show that the difference in the transgenic DR4-restricted T cell specificity to CII259-273 is not dependent on the degree of glycosylation of the collagen used for immunization.Conclusions
The present study provides important evaluation of CII-specific immune responses at different phases during CIA development as well as a comparative analysis between two CIA mouse models. We indicate significant differences in CII T cell and antibody specificities between the two strains and highlight a need for improved humanized B10.DR4 mouse model for rheumatoid arthritis. 相似文献14.

Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disease associated with the recognition of self proteins secluded in arthritic joints. We generated transgenic rice seeds expressing three types of altered peptide ligands (APL) and the T cell epitope of type II collagen (CII256–271). When these transgenic rice and non-transgenic rice seeds were orally administrated to DBA/1?J mice once a day for 14?days, followed by immunization with CII, the clinical score of collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) was reduced and inflammation and erosion in the joints were prevented in mice fed APL7 transgenic rice only. IL-10 production against the CII antigen significantly increased in the splenocytes and iLN of CIA mice immunized with the CII antigen, whereas IFN-γ, IL-17, and IL-2 levels were not altered. These results suggest that IL-10-mediated immune suppression is involved in the prophylactic effects caused by transgenic rice expressing APL7. 相似文献

The objective of the present investigation was to examine the effects of an irreversible inhibitor of ornithine decarboxylase (2R,5R)-6-heptyne-2,5,diamine (methylacetylenic putrescine, MAP) on experimentally induced arthritis in mice. MAP (0.5-0.05%) was administered in drinking water to DBA/1 mice immunized with native chick type II collagen (CII). The development of arthritis was inhibited only in those mice receiving 0.5% MAP; lower doses were ineffective. Putrescine and spermidine levels were decreased and spermine levels were increased in spleen and lymph node cells from drug-treated mice compared to control arthritic mice. Furthermore, when control mice were developing arthritis, serum anti-CII antibody levels were lower in the MAP-treated group. MAP inhibited antibody production early in the immune response to CII; there was an association between inhibition of antibody production and inhibition of the development of arthritis. When MAP was discontinued, the nonarthritic, drug-treated mice did not develop the disease. Late administration of MAP (beginning 19 days after CII immunization) did not affect the incidence or the severity of the arthritis. Cyclophosphamide treatment begun at the same time significantly inhibited the development of the disease. In vitro T cell responses to denatured type II collagen (dCII) in untreated and MAP-treated mice were examined 14 days after immunization with CII. This is a time of peak T cell responsiveness in untreated animals. MAP treatment had no effect on the T cell response to dCII. These results indicate that MAP can prevent the development of CII-induced arthritis, possibly by inhibiting the autoantibody response. Therefore, inhibitors of polyamine biosynthesis deserve further investigation as potential immunosuppressive agents. 相似文献

Bovine monoclonal anti-Id mimicking a neutralizing epitope of bovine herpesvirus-1 (BHV-1) glycoprotein gI were developed. An epitope present on the 74K subunit of gI identified by a murine mAb 1E11 was selected for this study. Bovine lymphocytes from the prefemoral lymph node of a heifer immunized with mAb 1E11 were fused with SP-2/0, a nonsecreting murine cell-line. Two bovine x murine hybridomas secreting bovine monoclonal anti-Id specific for the Id of 1E11 were stabilized. These anti-Id inhibited the binding of 1E11 to purified glycoprotein gI in a dose-dependent fashion. Naive mice immunized with the anti-Id produced anti-anti-Id (Ab3) that reacted with BHV-1 glycoprotein gI in a RIA, and neutralized BHV-1 infection in vitro. The Ab3 also showed reactivity to the 74K subunit of authentic gI glycoprotein in a Western blot analysis, and to the synthetic peptide bearing the 1E11 epitope in a RIA. These results substantiate the presence of the population of anti-Ab2 that functionally resemble antibodies specific for the immunizing Ag BHV-1 in Ab3, and demonstrate the ability of these anti-Id to elicit BHV-1-specific antibody response. 相似文献

Mice can be efficiently immunized in the absence of adjuvant using chemically cross-linked bispecific antibody (biAb) that bind to both class II MHC molecules and a protein Ag of interest. In our experiments, mice were immunized with the protein Ag hen egg lysozyme (HEL) bound to several different biAb, each of which contained a different mAb specific for a distinct (nonoverlapping) epitope of HEL. Primary and secondary serum antibody responses of the immunized mice were analyzed for their specificity for different epitopes of HEL. The results show that immunization with each HEL-biAb complex produced a bias in the epitope specificity of the primary antibody response. This bias was determined by the individual specificity of the anti-HEL mAb used in each biAb. The primary response was dominated by antibody reacting with epitopes distinct from that bound by the mAb in the immunizing complex, and was deficient in antibody that recognized the epitope bound by the biAb during immunization. This bias in antibody specificity was maintained during the secondary antibody response that followed a single challenge with soluble HEL alone. However, an additional challenge with HEL induced a switch in the specificity pattern, with increased amounts of antibody against the epitope that was previously ignored. In addition, immunization with Ag bound to biAb resulted in a substantial primary anti-Id response, detected by serum antibody specific only for the Fab'2 fragment of the mAb used in the biAb. These studies illustrate two unique features of immunization using biAb that allow for fine manipulation of the epitope specificity and anti-Id repertoires of the antibody response to whole protein Ag. 相似文献

Two major T cell determinants are recognized by I-Ar-specific T cells in CII, the immunodominant CII610-618 (GPAGT AGA R) within CB10 and the subdominant CII445-453 (GPAGP AGE R) within CB8. Although the determinants differ by only two residues, CB8 is capable of inducing collagen-induced arthritis (CIA), while CB10 is not. We, therefore, investigated the structural differences between the two determinants that are critical to inducing arthritis. When the CB10 determinant was mutated to that of CB8 using recombinant techniques, the resulting mutant rCB10T614P,A617E product became arthritogenic. Conversely, when the CB8 determinant was mutated to that of CB10, the resulting mutant CB8P449T,E452A was no longer arthritogenic. Comparison of the epitope specificity of the autoantibodies induced by wild-type CB10 and mutant rCB10T614P, A617E revealed no qualitative differences. T cells from mice immunized with either CB10 or mutant rCB10 produced predominantly Th1 cytokines when cultured with the immunizing Ag. In contrast, when cultured with mouse CII, T cells from mice immunized with the nonarthritogenic CB10 produced predominantly Th2 (IL-4 and IL-10) cytokines whereas the arthritogenic mutant rCB10 induced predominantly Th1 (IFN-gamma) cytokines. We conclude that the T cell cytokine response most critical for the induction of CIA is that induced against the corresponding homologous murine T cell determinant and, further, that the structural differences between the T cell determinants in CB8 and -10 are important in breaking self tolerance and inducing autoimmune response. 相似文献

A mAb of the IgG1/kappa isotype was raised against human myelin basic protein (MBP) peptide acetyl 1-9. This mAb, termed F23, reacted with human MBP and human MBP peptides acetyl 1-9, 1-14, and 1-44, but not with MBP peptides 10-19, 80-89, or 45-89. According to the guidelines of the molecular recognition theory, a complementary peptide to human MBP peptide 1-9 was synthesized and used to raise murine mAb with anti-Id activity. Two mAb anti-Id, F25F7 and F25C8, both of the IgM/kappa isotype, were selected for further study. These anti-Id reacted with F23, the mAb for which they were selected, and also reacted with another mAb, which was of the IgG1/kappa isotype and was raised to human MBP peptide 80-89. There was no reaction with another control mAb of the IgG1/kappa isotype or murine myeloma IgG1. By immunoblotting techniques, it was demonstrated that the Id on each of the mAbs to MBP peptides was located on the kappa L chain but also could be recognized in nonreduced IgG. The cross-reactive anti-Id suppressed antibody secretion of Id-producing hybridoma cells in an Id-specific manner, and kinetic studies suggest an intracellular mechanism for the suppression. These cross-reactive Id among antibodies to different MBP peptides imply that the same V region genes of kappa L chains are involved in the selection of antibodies to an autoantigen, like MBP, and may play a role in the modulation of immune responses against MBP in certain inflammatory demyelinating diseases. 相似文献

Rabbit polyclonal antiidiotypic antibodies were generated against a neutralizing mAb specific for a conformational epitope on the S glycoprotein of murine hepatitis virus, strain A59 (MHV-A59). These anti-Id were directed predominantly against an Id that was undetectable in rabbit and rat anti-MHV-A59 sera and weakly represented in syngeneic and allogeneic antiviral sera. However, some partial idiotypic sharing was observed between the Id-bearing antibody and a mAb with a similar antigenic site specificity. The anti-Id inhibited the virus-binding and neutralizing activities of the immunizing antibody, demonstrating that they recognize paratope-associated idiotopes. Mice immunized with affinity-purified anti-Id developed MHV-A59-specific antibodies that neutralized viral infectivity to high titers. Moreover, these animals survived an otherwise lethal challenge with viral murine hepatitis virus, unlike control mice immunized with normal rabbit Ig. These results indicate that at least a subpopulation of the polyclonal anti-Id could induce a protective immune response directed toward a biologically important MHV-A59 epitope, and demonstrate the feasibility of antiidiotypic vaccination against a coronavirus infection. 相似文献
