Recognition of alterations induced by early vaccinia surface antigens and dependence of virus-specific lysis on H-2 antigen concentration on target cells. 1977

U Koszinowski, and H Ertl, and H Wekerle, and R Thomssen

Specific recognition of antigens by cytolytic T lymphocytes sensitized to vaccinia virus was tested by monolayer adsorption. Adsorption was possible only on monolayers also expressing syngenic H-2 as viral antigens present during the sensitization phase. Vaccinia-virus-infected target cells were subjected to papain and neuraminidase treatment. H-2 antigenic determinants could be removed by papain treatment. Due to virus-specific inhibition of host-cell protein synthesis, reexpression of H-2 antigenic determinants did not take place, but viral surface antigens were resynthesized. Susceptibility of target cells to T-cell-mediated lysis was decreased after papain treatment. Substrains of vaccinia virus were used in order to define the minimal changes induced by vaccinia virus necessary for T-cell sensitization in vivo and target-cell lysis in vitro. When the immune response to a conditioanl lethal mutant strain of vaccinia virus was investigated, it could be demonstrated that expression of early surface antigens is sufficient for induction of the cellular immune reactions. These data were confirmed by inhibition studies with virus-specific antisera.

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.
