To evaluate the rules of tolerance induction to Mlsa we investigated maturation of T cells in irradiation bone marrow chimeras and thymus transplanted mice expressing the strongly stimulatory Mlsa or the nonstimulatory Mlsb in presence or absence of the permissive MHC class II IE molecule. As shown previously, deletion of V beta 6+, Mlsa reactive T cells required the presence of Mlsa and IE products either on donor cells or on recipient tissue. Additional experiments revealed that tolerance was induced when Mlsa and IE were expressed by distinct cells of the chimera. Similar observations were made in chimeras reconstituted with bone marrow stem cells of two different strains of mice. The presented data confirm earlier evidence that tolerance is induced by cooperation of Mlsa-expressing cells and IE+ Mlsb antigen-presenting cells (APCs). Preliminary results suggest that APCs presenting Mlsa during negative selection of V beta 6+ cells in the thymus are radiosensitive and derived from lymphohemopoietic stem cells.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007108 Immune Tolerance The specific failure of a normally responsive individual to make an immune response to a known antigen. It results from previous contact with the antigen by an immunologically immature individual (fetus or neonate) or by an adult exposed to extreme high-dose or low-dose antigen, or by exposure to radiation, antimetabolites, antilymphocytic serum, etc. Immunosuppression (Physiology),Immunosuppressions (Physiology),Tolerance, Immune
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.

D011247 Pregnancy The status during which female mammals carry their developing young (EMBRYOS or FETUSES) in utero before birth, beginning from FERTILIZATION to BIRTH. Gestation,Pregnancies
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
D011948 Receptors, Antigen, T-Cell Molecules on the surface of T-lymphocytes that recognize and combine with antigens. The receptors are non-covalently associated with a complex of several polypeptides collectively called CD3 antigens (CD3 COMPLEX). Recognition of foreign antigen and the major histocompatibility complex is accomplished by a single heterodimeric antigen-receptor structure, composed of either alpha-beta (RECEPTORS, ANTIGEN, T-CELL, ALPHA-BETA) or gamma-delta (RECEPTORS, ANTIGEN, T-CELL, GAMMA-DELTA) chains.

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.
