The frequency of clones of cytotoxic lymphocytes generated by H-2 antigens
نویسندگان
چکیده
By using a culture system that allows the segregation of individual precursors of cytotoxic lymphocytes, the number of clones generated by cells from different combinations of congenic mice have been measured. It has been found that 0.3% of the total anti-H2d clones are generated by stimulators which differ predominantly at the H-2 locus. The contribution of non-H-2 antigens to anti-H-2 responses is discussed.

Granule exocytosis, and not the fas/fas ligand system, is the main pathway of cytotoxicity mediated by alloantigen-specific CD4(+) as well as CD8(+) cytotoxic T lymphocytes in humans.
We investigated the cytotoxicity mechanisms of alloantigen-specific human CD4(+) and CD8(+) cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) using cells from family members with the Fas gene mutation. Alloantigen-specific CD4(+) and CD8(+) CTL bulk lines and clones were generated from 2 individuals by stimulation of their peripheral blood lymphocytes with allogeneic Fas(-/-) or Fas(+/-) cell lines that were esta...
متن کاملRecognition of polymorphic H-2 domains by T lymphocytes. I. Functional role of different H-2 domains for the generation of alloreactive cytotoxic T lymphocytes and determination of precursor frequencies
In the present communication, the repertoire of alloreactive cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) clones was quantitatively investigated by limiting dilution analysis and by target inhibition with a panel of monoclonal antibodies (mAb). These mAb have previously been shown to define two distinct alloantigenic domains, A and B, on the H-2Kk molecule. The Poisson distribution analysis of H-2Kk-specific ...
متن کامل1718 Recognition of H - 2 Domains by Cytotoxic T Lymphocytes
H-2 antigens encoded by the K and the D end of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) t are the primary target structures for alloreactive cytolytic T lymphocytes (CTL) (1-3). However, little is known about the repertoire of H-2specific CTL and about which parts and epitopes of the H-2 antigens are recognized by CTL. Recently (4) we were able to identify with a panel of monoclonal antibodie...
متن کاملSpecificity studies on cytolytic T lymphocytes directed against murine leukemia virus-induced tumors. Analysis of monoclonal cytolytic T lymphocytes
The specificities of cloned cytolytic T lymphocytes (CTL) were studied for the analysis of CTL populations generated against murine leukemia viruses (MuLV) in H-2 congenic BALB/c (H-2d) and BALB.B (H-2b) mice. In particular, CTL generated in response to tumors induced by Gross MuLV and Friend MuLV were studied; these tumors expressed virus-induced antigens that do not cross-react and that can b...
متن کاملHerpes simplex virus (HSV)-specific human T-cell clones recognize HSV glycoprotein D expressed by a recombinant vaccinia virus.
Human cytotoxic T-cell (CTL) clones that lyse autologous cells infected with herpes simplex virus (HSV) type 1 or 2 were generated by stimulating lymphocytes with a recombinant vaccinia virus (recombinant vaccinia-gD-1 virus) that expresses HSV type 1 glycoprotein D (gD-1). Furthermore, CTL clones generated with HSV type 1 or with cloned gD-1 lysed autologous cells infected with the recombinant...
