After adult irradiation and reconstitution with autologous bone marrow, BALB/c and C.B20 mice no longer utilize the T15 Id in response to phosphorylcholine. T15 Id expression can be restored by transfers of peritoneal B cells or by FACS-purified CD5+ IgM+ lymphocytes (but not by T lymphocytes) from syngeneic donors. Using bone marrow and peritoneal cell donors that are congeneic for heavy and light chain allotypes, the exclusive origin of the T15 Id in peritoneal B cells was ascertained. These conclusions have been essentially confirmed by immunization with either anti-T15 Id or anti-VHT15 antibodies conjugated to lipopolysaccharide. Thus, the production of VHT15-positive antibodies continues at control levels in bone marrow-reconstituted animals while no T15 Id production can be stimulated even in this protocol of direct B cell stimulation. These results constitute the first formal demonstration of the exclusive production of and Id by CD5+ B-cells.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007130 Immunoglobulin Idiotypes Unique genetically-controlled determinants present on ANTIBODIES whose specificity is limited to a single group of proteins (e.g., another antibody molecule or an individual myeloma protein). The idiotype appears to represent the antigenicity of the antigen-binding site of the antibody and to be genetically codetermined with it. The idiotypic determinants have been precisely located to the IMMUNOGLOBULIN VARIABLE REGION of both immunoglobin polypeptide chains.

D008815 Mice, Inbred Strains Genetically identical individuals developed from brother and sister matings which have been carried out for twenty or more generations, or by parent x offspring matings carried out with certain restrictions. All animals within an inbred strain trace back to a common ancestor in the twentieth generation.

D010529 Peritoneal Cavity The space enclosed by the peritoneum. It is divided into two portions, the greater sac and the lesser sac or omental bursa, which lies behind the STOMACH. The two sacs are connected by the foramen of Winslow, or epiploic foramen. Greater Sac,Lesser Sac,Omental Bursa,Bursa, Omental,Cavity, Peritoneal,Sac, Greater,Sac, Lesser

D011828 Radiation Chimera An organism whose body contains cell populations of different genotypes as a result of the TRANSPLANTATION of donor cells after sufficient ionizing radiation to destroy the mature recipient's cells which would otherwise reject the donor cells. Chimera, Radiation,Chimeras, Radiation,Radiation Chimeras
D001853 Bone Marrow The soft tissue filling the cavities of bones. Bone marrow exists in two types, yellow and red. Yellow marrow is found in the large cavities of large bones and consists mostly of fat cells and a few primitive blood cells. Red marrow is a hematopoietic tissue and is the site of production of erythrocytes and granular leukocytes. Bone marrow is made up of a framework of connective tissue containing branching fibers with the frame being filled with marrow cells.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D000943 Antigens, Differentiation Antigens expressed primarily on the membranes of living cells during sequential stages of maturation and differentiation. As immunologic markers they have high organ and tissue specificity and are useful as probes in studies of normal cell development as well as neoplastic transformation.
