Generation of cytolytic T lymphocytes after reovirus infection: role of S1 gene. 1979

R Finberg, and H L Weiner, and B N Fields, and B Benacerraf, and S J Burakoff

Cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) can be generated if spleen cells from reovirus-infected mice are stimulated in vitro with syngeneic reovirus-infected cells. These cytolytic effector cells demonstrate: (i) serotype specificity (i.e., maximal cytolytic activity is observed on target cells infected with the serotype used to induce the CTLs) and (ii) H-2 restriction. The SI gene was shown to be the predominant viral gene determining the specificity of the cytotoxic T cells. This genome segment has previously been demonstrated to encode the viral hemagglutinin and determines reovirus cell tropism in the nervous system.

D003602 Cytotoxicity, Immunologic The phenomenon of target cell destruction by immunologically active effector cells. It may be brought about directly by sensitized T-lymphocytes or by lymphoid or myeloid "killer" cells, or it may be mediated by cytotoxic antibody, cytotoxic factor released by lymphoid cells, or complement.

D005802 Genes, MHC Class II Genetic loci in the vertebrate major histocompatibility complex that encode polymorphic products which control the immune response to specific antigens. The genes are found in the HLA-D region in humans and include H-2M, I-A, and I-E loci in mice. Class II Genes,Genes, Class II,Genes, HLA Class II,MHC Class II Genes,Class II Gene,Gene, Class II

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.

D013601 T-Lymphocytes Lymphocytes responsible for cell-mediated immunity. Two types have been identified - cytotoxic (T-LYMPHOCYTES, CYTOTOXIC) and helper T-lymphocytes (T-LYMPHOCYTES, HELPER-INDUCER). They are formed when lymphocytes circulate through the THYMUS GLAND and differentiate to thymocytes. When exposed to an antigen, they divide rapidly and produce large numbers of new T cells sensitized to that antigen.
