Selective expression of separate I-region loci in functionally different lymphocyte subpopulations. 1977

D B Murphy, and K Okumura, and L A Herzenberg, and L A Herzenberg, and H O McDevitt

Determinants controlled by separate loci mapping in the I region of the H-2 gene complex are selectively expressed on subpopulations of lymphocytes which play different roles in generating humoral responses. The Ia-4 locus, which marks a new I subregion, designated I-J, controls determinants found on allotype suppressor and normal (nonsuppressed) T lymphocytes. These determinants are not present on helper T lymphocytes or B lymphocytes. In contrast, the Ia-1 locus, which marks the I-A subregion, controls determinants present on B lymphocytes but not on suppressor or helper T lymphocytes. Another locus (subregion not known) controls determinants which distinguish helper T lymphocytes from suppressor T lymphocytes. Such selective expression suggests that the products of these loci may plan an integral role in lymphocyte interactions.

D008213 Lymphocyte Activation Morphologic alteration of small B LYMPHOCYTES or T LYMPHOCYTES in culture into large blast-like cells able to synthesize DNA and RNA and to divide mitotically. It is induced by INTERLEUKINS; MITOGENS such as PHYTOHEMAGGLUTININS, and by specific ANTIGENS. It may also occur in vivo as in GRAFT REJECTION.

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.

D006649 Histocompatibility Antigens A group of antigens that includes both the major and minor histocompatibility antigens. The former are genetically determined by the major histocompatibility complex. They determine tissue type for transplantation and cause allograft rejections. The latter are systems of allelic alloantigens that can cause weak transplant rejection.

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.
