We have investigated the mechanism of tolerance in a patient with severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) transplanted with HLA-haploidentical, T cell-depleted bone marrow cells obtained from the mother. At 4 years after transplantation, T cells, natural killer (NK) cells, and a small percentage (2%) of B cells were found to be of donor origin, whereas monocytes and the majority of B cells remained of host origin. In primary mixed lymphocyte cultures (MLC), the engrafted T cells of the donor did not proliferate in response to the host cells, whereas untransplanted donor T cells showed good proliferative responses. However, CD4+ and CD8+ T-cell clones of donor origin with specificity for class II and class I HLA determinants of the host were isolated. CD8+, host-reactive T-cell clones displayed normal cytotoxic activity after stimulation with the host cells, but proliferative responses of CD4+, host-reactive T-cell clones were considerably reduced. In addition, both CD8+ and CD4+, host-reactive T-cell clones produced very low to undetectable levels of interleukin-2 (IL-2), IL-4, IL-5, IL-10, interferon-gamma, and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor after specific antigenic activation, which may be responsible for their nonresponsive state in vivo. Expression of the CD3 zeta subunit of the T-cell receptor (TcR) was normal, and after stimulation via CD3, Raf-1 and p42 mitogen activated protein (MAP) kinase were phosphorylated, indicating that this part of the signaling pathway after triggering of the TcR/CD3 complex is present. These results, together with our previous observation that dysfunctional, host-reactive T-cell clones can be isolated in SCID patients transplanted with fetal liver stem cells, demonstrate that lack of clonal deletion of host-reactive T cells is a general phenomenon after HLA-mismatched stem cell transplantation.

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

D008213 Lymphocyte Activation Morphologic alteration of small B LYMPHOCYTES or T LYMPHOCYTES in culture into large blast-like cells able to synthesize DNA and RNA and to divide mitotically. It is induced by INTERLEUKINS; MITOGENS such as PHYTOHEMAGGLUTININS, and by specific ANTIGENS. It may also occur in vivo as in GRAFT REJECTION.

D005455 Fluorescent Antibody Technique Test for tissue antigen using either a direct method, by conjugation of antibody with fluorescent dye (FLUORESCENT ANTIBODY TECHNIQUE, DIRECT) or an indirect method, by formation of antigen-antibody complex which is then labeled with fluorescein-conjugated anti-immunoglobulin antibody (FLUORESCENT ANTIBODY TECHNIQUE, INDIRECT). The tissue is then examined by fluorescence microscopy.
