Cellular interactions in the generation of cytolytic T lymphocyte responses. Analysis of the helper T cell pathway. 1981

Murine splenic lymphocytes exhibit a requirement for helper T cells for the induction of a cytolytic T lymphocyte response to suboptimal doses of allogeneic cells, membranes from allogeneic cells, or purified H-2 antigen in liposomes. The conditions where a requirement for help is apparent are the same conditions where a dependence on splenic adherent cells (SAC) has been demonstrated (Weinberger, O. et al., PROC. Natl. Acad, Sci, USA 1980. 77: 6091). Help can be provided in the form of primed, radioresistant, Ly-1+ spleen or lymph node cells or helper factor (interleukin 2, IL-2). A factor generated from phytohemagglutinin-stimulated human lymphocytes, when added to culture in the presence of antigen, bypassed the requirement for Ia+ SAC and helper cells. IL-2 reconstituted the response to H-2K(k) in liposomes in cultures depleted of SAC, strongly suggesting that the helper cell must see antigen re-expressed by an antigen-presenting cell, whereas the prekiller does not. IL-2 could be generated by culturing Ly-1+ murine spleen cells with H-2K(k) pulsed on SAC.

D003602 Cytotoxicity, Immunologic The phenomenon of target cell destruction by immunologically active effector cells. It may be brought about directly by sensitized T-lymphocytes or by lymphoid or myeloid "killer" cells, or it may be mediated by cytotoxic antibody, cytotoxic factor released by lymphoid cells, or complement.

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.
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.
