The induction of immunologic tolerance in newborn mice by spleen cells differing in H-2K or H-2D, but not "I-J," genotype. 1985

B L Pike, and J R Gamble, and J F Miller, and G J Nossal

Newborn mice of various strains belonging to the B10A series of recombinants received injections of spleen cells from adult donors to induce immunologic tolerance to antigens of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC). Donor-host combinations were chosen so as to provide differences at H-2K or H-2D, together with various portions of the Ia region. The experiments were predicated on the hypothesis that differences at "I-J" might be required for activation of suppressor cells--thus for the induction of the tolerant state. Tolerance was assessed both by skin grafting and by enumeration of antiallogeneic cytotoxic T lymphocyte precursors (CTL-P) through in vitro limiting-dilution cloning analysis. Host mice that differed from the donor strain only at H-2D, or at H-2K and H-2I-A, were rendered tolerant just as readily as those that differed at "I-J" plus H-2D or "I-J" plus H-2K and H-2I-A. The hypothesis that "I-J" differences are essential for tolerance induction was thus clearly negated.

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.

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.

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.
