[Immunological specificity and the kinetics of T-suppressor induction in the immunization of mice with allogeneic spleen]. 1980

B D Brondz, and A V Karaulov, and I F Abronina

A high dose immunization of mice with gamma-irradiated allogeneic spleen cells has been shown to induce, in a recipient spleen, specific suppressor T-cells, resistant to mitomycin C, which are capable of inhibiting DNA synthesis and, to a lesser degree, the generation of killer cells in the mixed lymphocyte culture (MLC). The maximum suppressor activity is reached on days 3-6 after immunization. Both reactions are blocked mostly in those stimulator cells which bear H-2 antigens used for immunization. In contrast, DNA synthesis is inhibited only slightly, if at all, when it is stimulated in MLC by third-party cells, even if these are added to the culture as a mixture with correspoding stimulators. Unlike X-irradiated allogeneic cells, the untreated ones induce a mixture of suppressors, T-cells and macrophages, with a considerable non-specific suppression. Untreated syngenic lymphoid cells induce less active non-specific suppressors with properties of macrophages.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007114 Immunization Deliberate stimulation of the host's immune response. ACTIVE IMMUNIZATION involves administration of ANTIGENS or IMMUNOLOGIC ADJUVANTS. PASSIVE IMMUNIZATION involves administration of IMMUNE SERA or LYMPHOCYTES or their extracts (e.g., transfer factor, immune RNA) or transplantation of immunocompetent cell producing tissue (thymus or bone marrow).

D007700 Kinetics The rate dynamics in chemical or physical systems.
D007959 Lymphocyte Culture Test, Mixed Measure of histocompatibility at the HL-A locus. Peripheral blood lymphocytes from two individuals are mixed together in tissue culture for several days. Lymphocytes from incompatible individuals will stimulate each other to proliferate significantly (measured by tritiated thymidine uptake) whereas those from compatible individuals will not. In the one-way MLC test, the lymphocytes from one of the individuals are inactivated (usually by treatment with MITOMYCIN or radiation) thereby allowing only the untreated remaining population of cells to proliferate in response to foreign histocompatibility antigens.

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.

D000918 Antibody Specificity The property of antibodies which enables them to react with some ANTIGENIC DETERMINANTS and not with others.

D014181 Transplantation Immunology A general term for the complex phenomena involved in allo- and xenograft rejection by a host and graft vs host reaction. Although the reactions involved in transplantation immunology are primarily thymus-dependent phenomena of cellular immunity, humoral factors also play a part in late rejection. Immunology, Transplantation
