The effects of in vivo treatment with xenogeneic anti-idiotypic antibodies were examined in an anti-Ia idiotypic system. Monoclonal antibody 14-4-4S, specific for Ia.7, has been shown to bear idiotopes that are expressed at readily detectable levels in conventional alloantibody responses. Sera from mice treated with purified anti-idiotypic antibodies (anti-Id) were found to contain inhibitory activity in an ELISA specific for the 14-4-4S Id, whereas sera from control mice treated with heterologous normal Ig did not. In addition, sera of anti-Id-treated C3H.SW mice contained specific anti-I-E activity, shown by binding to B10.A(2R) but not B10.A(4R) LPS blasts in flow microfluorometry. The anti-I-E induced by anti-Id included more IgG1 than IgG2. Even though a significant amount of anti-I-E activity was present in the serum, absorption analysis showed that most of the idiotope-positive antibody was not I-Ek-specific. Penetrance of induction of anti-I-E by anti-Id was 100% in the C3H.SW mice tested, and activity persisted in the serum for at least 8 to 9 mo in some cases. B10 mice produced only marginal anti-I-E activity after treatment, suggesting that induction is due to specific triggering rather than due entirely to a resemblance of anti-Id to the I-E antigen. The results thus indicate long-lasting alterations in an anti-Ia idiotypic system in the absence of exposure to conventional antigen, and represent specific manipulation of anti-Ia immunity.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007074 Immunoglobulin G The major immunoglobulin isotype class in normal human serum. There are several isotype subclasses of IgG, for example, IgG1, IgG2A, and IgG2B. Gamma Globulin, 7S,IgG,IgG Antibody,Allerglobuline,IgG(T),IgG1,IgG2,IgG2A,IgG2B,IgG3,IgG4,Immunoglobulin GT,Polyglobin,7S Gamma Globulin,Antibody, IgG,GT, Immunoglobulin
D007130 Immunoglobulin Idiotypes Unique genetically-controlled determinants present on ANTIBODIES whose specificity is limited to a single group of proteins (e.g., another antibody molecule or an individual myeloma protein). The idiotype appears to represent the antigenicity of the antigen-binding site of the antibody and to be genetically codetermined with it. The idiotypic determinants have been precisely located to the IMMUNOGLOBULIN VARIABLE REGION of both immunoglobin polypeptide chains.

D007518 Isoantibodies Antibodies from an individual that react with ISOANTIGENS of another individual of the same species. Alloantibodies
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. Specificity is dependent on chemical composition, physical forces, and molecular structure at the binding site. Antibody Specificities,Specificities, Antibody,Specificity, Antibody
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.
