Cells required for the in vitro generation of syngeneic cytotoxic T-lymphocytes (CTL) against the P815 mastocytoma in the DBA/2 mouse strain were investigated. For both immune and tumor-bearing host spleen cells, CTL effector cells were eliminated by treatment with anti-Thy1.2, anti-Lyt1.1, or anti-Lyt2.1 and C', but were resistant to anti-L3T4 (GK1.5). Thus, CTL effectors (and their precursors) were Lyt1+2+, L3T4-. However, P815-specific CTL could not be generated in the absence of L3T4+ cells, whose function could be replaced with exogenous interleukin-2 (IL-2). When monoclonal antibodies against L3T4 were added to mixed leukocyte tumor cultures, CTL generation was markedly inhibited. Depletion of accessory cells also led to a marked reduction in CTL generation, which could be restored to control levels by adding adherent cells from normal spleens or with exogenous IL-2, but not with IL-1. Thus, accessory cells are apparently required to present the tumor antigens of this Ia-negative tumor to T-helper cells.

D006377 T-Lymphocytes, Helper-Inducer Subpopulation of CD4+ lymphocytes that cooperate with other lymphocytes (either T or B) to initiate a variety of immune functions. For example, helper-inducer T-cells cooperate with B-cells to produce antibodies to thymus-dependent antigens and with other subpopulations of T-cells to initiate a variety of cell-mediated immune functions.

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.

D000938 Antigen-Presenting Cells A heterogeneous group of immunocompetent cells that mediate the cellular immune response by processing and presenting antigens to the T-cells. Traditional antigen-presenting cells include MACROPHAGES; DENDRITIC CELLS; LANGERHANS CELLS; and B-LYMPHOCYTES. FOLLICULAR DENDRITIC CELLS are not traditional antigen-presenting cells, but because they hold antigen on their cell surface in the form of IMMUNE COMPLEXES for B-cell recognition they are considered so by some authors.

D013154 Spleen An encapsulated lymphatic organ through which venous blood filters.
D013602 T-Lymphocytes, Cytotoxic Immunized T-lymphocytes which can directly destroy appropriate target cells. These cytotoxic lymphocytes may be generated in vitro in mixed lymphocyte cultures (MLC), in vivo during a graft-versus-host (GVH) reaction, or after immunization with an allograft, tumor cell or virally transformed or chemically modified target cell. The lytic phenomenon is sometimes referred to as cell-mediated lympholysis (CML). These CD8-positive cells are distinct from NATURAL KILLER CELLS and NATURAL KILLER T-CELLS. There are two effector phenotypes: TC1 and TC2.
