The pattern of clonal deletion of putative I-E-reactive (V beta 11) and Mls-reactive (V beta 3) T cells was evaluated and compared by cytofluorographic and immunohistochemical methods in a model of neonatal H-2 tolerance and in I-E- or Mls-bearing strains of mice which normally delete these cell populations (self-tolerance). The ontogeny of deletion of V beta 11+ cells was studied by evaluating thymic changes from birth until maturity in B10.S (H-2s/I-E-), B10.A (H-2k/d/I-E+) and B10.S mice intravenously infused at birth with (B10.SxB10.A)F1 lymphohaematopoietic cells. The reduction in V beta 11+ cells was most prevalent in the medullary region of the naive B10.A and neonatally injected B10.S animals and was corroborated by flow cytometry which demonstrated a marked reduction in single CD4 and CD8 positive B beta 11 T cells when compared to naive B10.S mice. However, immunohistochemistry illustrated that 'deletion' was never complete since V beta 11+ cells remained in the thymic cortex and splenic lymphoid follicles. By comparison, DBA/2 mice (Mlsc+ and previously documented to have decreased levels of V beta 3+ cells) showed a different pattern of deletion of V beta 3+ T cells than what was found for T cells bearing V beta 11 in animals deleting this population. DBA/2 thymi contained fewer thymic V beta 3- cells and there was more complete elimination of these cells, particularly in the periphery, by flow cytometry and immunohistology. The mice which do not delete V beta 3 cells (Mlsc-) showed that the majority of V beta 3- cells were located in the medulla with a few cells distributed in the cortical region. This pattern was notably different than the distribution of V beta 11 cells in thymi. Despite their location by histology, the majority of remaining V beta 3+ cells were dual CD4/CD8 positive (CD4+CD8+) by flow cytometric analysis. Our data illustrate that V beta 11 and V beta 3 T cells appear to be eliminated (i.e. 'deleted') at similar stages of maturation (single positive) during self-tolerance as well as in a neonatal H-2 tolerance model. However, the degree of elimination and the location of the cells remaining in these mice is dramatically different, depending on which T cell population is being evaluated and which deleting ligand is presented intrathymically. Thus, the accepted tenet of dual CD4+CD8+ cells localizing to the thymic cortex appears to have exceptions.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

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

D005434 Flow Cytometry Technique using an instrument system for making, processing, and displaying one or more measurements on individual cells obtained from a cell suspension. Cells are usually stained with one or more fluorescent dyes specific to cell components of interest, e.g., DNA, and fluorescence of each cell is measured as it rapidly transverses the excitation beam (laser or mercury arc lamp). Fluorescence provides a quantitative measure of various biochemical and biophysical properties of the cell, as well as a basis for cell sorting. Other measurable optical parameters include light absorption and light scattering, the latter being applicable to the measurement of cell size, shape, density, granularity, and stain uptake.

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.
