Expression of HLA-DR antigens on T lymphocytes. 1980

M Gerbase-Delima, and M H Kraemer, and N F Novo, and E R Paiva, and N F Mendes

Our data have demonstrated, for the first time, expression of HLA-DR antigens on heated T cells (45 degrees C, 1 h) and have confirmed the occurrence of these antigens on mitogen-stimulated T cells. HLA-DR antigens were detected by microlymphocytotoxicity employing defined and non-defined anti-HLA-DR sera. The HLA-DR T cell antigens proved to be the same as the ones expressed on B cells from the same donor. In addition, extra reactions were observed on mitogen-stimulated and on heated T cells which could be abolished by absorption with cytotoxicity negative B cells of the same donor (cytotoxicity-negative-absorption-positive phenomenon).

D000949 Histocompatibility Antigens Class II Large, transmembrane, non-covalently linked glycoproteins (alpha and beta). Both chains can be polymorphic although there is more structural variation in the beta chains. The class II antigens in humans are called HLA-D ANTIGENS and are coded by a gene on chromosome 6. In mice, two genes named IA and IE on chromosome 17 code for the H-2 antigens. The antigens are found on B-lymphocytes, macrophages, epidermal cells, and sperm and are thought to mediate the competence of and cellular cooperation in the immune response. The term IA antigens used to refer only to the proteins encoded by the IA genes in the mouse, but is now used as a generic term for any class II histocompatibility antigen.

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.
