Monoclonal antibodies (mAb) which react with bovine monocytes have been produced. These include three mAb (P8, IL-A22 and IL-A24) that recognize the majority of monocytes and granulocytes in peripheral blood; two of these mAb were also shown to react with 30-40% of cells in bone marrow, including both monocytic and granulocytic cells, and with variable percentages of tissue macrophages. Thus these mAb can act as markers for myeloid cells in haemopoietic tissues and for monocytes in cell populations devoid of granulocytes. A further two mAb (IL-A23 and IL-A25) recognize monocytes and/or macrophages. The reactivity of one of these mAb (IL-A25) appears to be mainly restricted to pulmonary macrophages. The other mAb reacts with a variable proportion of blood monocytes and generally with a higher percentage of tissue macrophages, suggesting that its expression may relate to activation or maturation of monocytes. In order to study the functional properties of peripheral blood monocytes, techniques were developed for obtaining populations of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBM) depleted of monocytes to less than 0.2% and monocyte populations of greater than 97% purity. Removal of monocytes from PBM abrogated the capacity of the cells to proliferate in response to Con A and PBS, although addition of 2-mercaptoethanol to the cultures restored proliferation. In both allogeneic and autologous mixed leukocyte cultures (MLC), monocytes were required in the stimulator cell populations for induction of the proliferative responses, and both responses could be elicited with purified monocytes. However, proliferation in the autologous MLC occurred only with responder cell populations that were depleted of monocytes. Moreover, it was shown that addition of more than 5% unirradiated monocytes to the autologous MLC suppressed proliferation. These findings indicate that monocytes play an important role in the induction and regulation of cellular immune responses in cattle. Two of the mAb that react with monocytes and granulocytes were tested for their capacity to inhibit proliferative responses of PBM to mitogens, alloantigens or the soluble antigen, KLH.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)  相似文献

Haematological parameters and reactivity of lymphocyte antigens to monoclonal antibodies were studied over a 10-month period in sheep experimentally infected with bovine leukaemia virus (BLV). BLV-inoculated animals seroconverted within 1 month and showed a significant lymphocytosis 2-6 weeks after infection. Control animals inoculated with BLV-free lymphocytes showed a stronger and more immediate neutrophil response than those inoculated with BLV-positive lymphocytes. One month after infection, BLV-inoculated sheep showed a relative increase of cells bearing antigens T4, T6, T8 and T19, and 10 months into the trial, MHC II lymphocytes increased, T6 remained elevated, but T4 helper cells were significantly decreased in number. Lymphoma tissue showed the presence of T8 cells, and lymph nodes from seroconverted sheep had areas of concentrated T4 staining cells. These results demonstrate responses in cellular immune mechanisms to infection with BLV.  相似文献

A study was conducted to determine the presence of surface antigens on cultured cells of bovine ocular squamous cell carcinoma (BOSCC) by serological testing. Serum from cattle with plaque and malignant stages of disease were tested for reactivity with surface antigens of cultured autologous and allogeneic cells. Indirect immune fluorescence assays were conducted to determine the presence of antibodies towards these tumor cells. It was found that sera tested possessed antibodies to the cultured tumor cells. Further, no surface reactivity was observed when these sera were tested for reactivity with normal epithelial cells. Reactive sera were analyzed by absorption tests with autologous and allogeneic cells. Absorbed sera showed no reactivity to surface antigens or allogeneic cells. This study suggests that there might be a shared antigen among the cells from plaque and malignant lesions.  相似文献

In order to apply for reducing graft versus host disease in allogeneic stem cell transplantation, the study concerning the induction of specific T cell anergy was designed. Normal allogeneic lymphocytes, which were co-cultured with IL-10-treated immature dendritic cells in the first mixed leukocyte culture (MLC), were cultured with mature dendritic cells of the same origin as IL-10-treated immature dendritic cells in the second MLC. By co-culturing with IL-10-treated immature dendritic cells, the response of normal lymphocytes to mature dendritic cells cultured from the same individual as that of IL-10-treated dendritic cells was markedly reduced, compared with the lymphocytes cultured with non-treated dendritic cells or IL-10-treated dendritic cells from a third party individual. The present study demonstrated that antigen specific T cell anergy was generated by priming allogeneic lymphocytes with IL-10-treated immature dendritic cells. These data suggested the applicability of IL-10-treated recipient dendritic cells for the induction of recipient cell-specific donor T cell anergy in donor graft.  相似文献

Two monoclonal antibodies (MoAbs; BLMo-4 and BLMo-10) were prepared by immunizing with a cell line established from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) of enzootic bovine leukosis (EBL) cattle. The specificities of these MoAbs were assayed using bovine PBMC. BLMo-4 reacted with all surface immunoglobulin-positive cells (SIg+ cells; B lymphocytes) and also recognized monocytes, but did not react with T lymphocytes. BLMo-10 recognized a majority, although not all, B lymphocytes, but did not react with either T lymphocytes or monocytes. The antigens recognized by BLMo-4 and BLMo-10 were not Ig, Fc or C3 receptors on the surface of B lymphocytes. The reactivity of the MoAbs with mononuclear cells from the lymphoid organs of adult cattle was studied. BLMo-4 and BLMo-10 did not react with any bone marrow cells. BLMo-10 reacted with 7.4% of thymocytes, and stained the medulla of the thymus in the immunoperoxidase assay. In the case of PBMC, spleen and lymph node cells, the percentage of cells positive for BLMo-4 was slightly higher than that of SIg+ cells, but BLMo-10 showed a slightly lower value.  相似文献

Leukocytes isolated from the intraepithelium, lamina propria, and aggregated lymphoid follicles (ALF) of the bovine small intestinal mucosa were activated by concanavalin A (conA) to generate suppressor activity against the proliferative response of autologous and allogeneic leukocytes to conA, phytohemagglutinin, and pokeweed mitogen. Freshly obtained intraepithelium, lamina propria, and ALF leukocytes, preincubated with 25 to 50 micrograms/ml of conA for 24 to 48 hours, were able to inhibit the mitogenic responses of autologous and allogeneic lymphocytes when cocultured at a ratio greater than or equal to 1:1 (suppressor cells to responder cells). Depletion of adherent cells (monocytes/macrophages) by sequential plastic and gel adherence completely abrogated the conA-induced suppressor activity of all 3 leukocytes populations. However, reconstitution with autologous or allogeneic monocytes/macrophages during the induction phase restored the inducible suppressor activity. Addition of recombinant human interleukin-2 at a concentration as low as 5 U/ml during the responder phase enabled the responder population to recover the response apparently impaired by the conA-treated ALF leukocytes. At a concentration of 10 U/ml, human interleukin-2 was not only able to restore the responder population's response to phytohemagglutinin stimulation, but highly enhanced its proliferative ability. Although quantitative variations were observed between different cell populations and cells obtained from individual cows, the extent and general pattern of the inducible suppressor activity were similar in cells from cows studied.  相似文献

Suitable treatment and culture conditions are defined for the induction of blast transformation in bovine peripheral blood lymphocytes by oxidation with sodium metaperiodate (NaIO4). Stimulation with NaIO4 required slight modification of techniques used routinely for activation of lymphocytes in vitro with lectins and antigens. Gradient-separated mononuclear leukocytes responded with maximal [3H]TdR incorporation after oxidation with 0.50 to 1.0 mM NaIO4 for 30 minutes at 25 C. Oxidized cells cultured at 1 to 2 X 10(6)/ml responded better than cells cultured at any other concentration, when compared with untreated cells. Blastogenesis in response to oxidation reached its maximum rate within 48 hours of treatment, after which it declined rapidly. Partial removal of glass wool-adherent cells reduced periodate-triggered blastogenesis by 95%, but did not significantly affect activation with phytohemagglutinin, concanavalin A, pokeweed mitogen, or purified protein derivative. Reintroduction of macrophages restored responses to their precolumn level. Oxidation with NaIO4 provided a simple, rapid means of inducing blastogenesis in bovine lymphocytes. Manipulation of the well-defined triggering conditions may help to explain the mechanisms involved in lymphocyte activation.  相似文献

In an attempt to isolate monoclonal antibodies specific for bovine lymphocytes, spleen cells from mice immunized with bovine lymphocytes were fused with the mouse myeloma cell line SP-2/0. The resulting hybridoma cell lines were tested for reactivity with bovine lymphocytes, polymorphonuclear neutrophils, RBC, gamma-globulin, kappa-casein, beta-casein, alpha-S1-casein, and beta 2-microglobulin (beta 2m) and with beta 2m from rabbits, goats, and human beings. None of the clones secreted anti-bovine lymphocyte-specific antibody. However, 4 secreted monoclonal antibodies to bovine beta 2m. They also reacted with beta 2m from rabbit, goat, and human being. One monoclonal antibody also was found to be reactive with bovine immunoglobulin. Monoclonal antibodies to beta 2m could serve as a tool to (1) explore the homology of the beta 2m molecule among various species, (2) examine the relationship of beta 2 m with the constant region of the immunoglobulin molecule, (3) quantitate bovine beta 2m in various body fluids and major histocompatibility antigens on cell surfaces, (4) help characterize those antigens in cattle, and (5) be used for tissue typing of those antigens.  相似文献

A sensitive and specific radioimmunoassay for the major internal antigen of bovine leukemia virus has been applied to detecting this protein in cultured lymphocytes of infected cattle. The specificity inherent in this assay offers obvious advantages over a previously described syncytium induction assay for infectious bovine leukemia virus, because false positive reactions due to other viruses such as bovine syncytial virus are avoided. Investigations of various culture conditions indicated that maximal amounts of antigen had been produced after incubation for 72 hr at 37°C. Lymphocyte concentrations of 106?5×107 cells/ml gave satisfactory results. Tests of cultured lymphocytes from bovine leukemia virus infected or bovine leukemia virus-free cattle indicated a comparable sensitivity between the radioimmunoassay and syncytium induction assay in the detection of bovine leukemia virus infections.  相似文献

Canine dendritic cells were prepared from peripheral blood or lymph nodes using a series of steps including fractionation on bovine plasma albumin (BPA), irradiation with 4000 R, incubation for 16–18 hours, and refractionation on BPA. Dendritic cells were recovered in the low density (LD) fraction containing approximately 0.6% of the unfractionated cells. Measured by the incorporation of 3H-thymidine, the response of the high density (HD) cells to neuraminidase-galactose oxidase (NGO) was lower than that of the unfractionated lymph node cells (LNC) but increased in a concentration dependent manner after the addition of a population of cells enriched for dendritic cells (30–70% by morphologic criteria). Cooperation between HD- and LD- cells was not restricted to identity of the major histocompatibility complex. Canine dendritic cells also displayed stimulatory activity higher than unfractionated peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) in a one way mixed leukocyte culture (MLC). Canine dendritic cells were nonadherent to plastic, were of low density, and remained viable and functional after irradiation. For the first time, canine dendritic cells have been identified in peripheral blood and lymph nodes and have been shown to act as accessory cells in the response of lymphocytes to NGO and as stimulator cells in a MLC.  相似文献

Anti-tumor immune reactivity of lymphocytes derived from lymph nodes regional to and distant from tumor growth, as well as that of peripheral blood leucocytes, against autochthonous tumor cells, was investigated. Experiments were carried out in vitro using a 51Cr cytotoxic assay and in vivo by cannulating the afferent and efferent lymphatics of regional and distant lymph nodes and challenging via the afferent lymphatics with 10(7) cultivated autochthonous tumor cells. No anti-tumor cytotoxic reactivity was detected in vitro using lymphocytes derived from any of the sources studied. In vivo, while challenge with autochthonous tumor cells produced no response in the regional lymph node, significant blast cell response was obtained in the distant node. The response at the distant node was associated with the production of antibodies that could bind to tumor cells without causing their demise. The anergy observed at the regional lymph node, and the possibility of a relation between the events occurring at that node and those observed at the distant node, are discussed.  相似文献

The blastogenic response of bovine peripheral blood lymphocytes to phytohemagglutinin (PHA) and to microbial antigens was measured using a lymphocyte titration assay. Culture conditions, including lymphocyte concentrations, incubation periods and medium formulation, were established which produced linear or nearly linear responses over a range of cell concentrations. These conditions were established by testing lymphocytes from unimmunized cattle and from heifers infected with Brucella abortus with PHA and a B. abortus extract. Four cell concentrations in 2-fold increments were selected for measuring responses to PHA (3.125 X 10(3) to 2.5 X 10(4) cells/well) and to antigens (5.0 X 10(4) to 4.0 X 10(5) cells/well). The strength of response varied among animals and also over time for individual animals, but the titration assay allowed exponential proliferation to be distinguished from decline, which may have been due to overcrowding of microtiter wells, exhaustion of nutrients or induction of regulatory events. This assay provided a more reliable and discriminating method of evaluating lymphocyte proliferation responses than that achieved by single point assays. The displacement of the titration curves could be used to estimate the relative frequency of lymphocytes responding to antigens or mitogens.  相似文献

The influence of allogeneic IgG on in vitro reactivity of peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) of neonatal colostrum-deprived piglets as well as of suckling and weaned piglets was studied. PBL were preincubated with purified allogeneic IgG for 24 h before their ability to respond to PHA, Con A or PWM was tested. PBL of precolostral piglets pretreated with allogeneic IgG exhibited higher response to PHA (P less than 0.01) than untreated control cells. An increased response of PBL treated with IgG was also observed in suckling piglets as compared to their respective control cells (P less than 0.01). Responsiveness of PBL treated with IgG to PWM was suppressed. No differences in response to Con A regardless of the sources of lymphocytes was observed as compared to IgG untreated controls. The results suggest that pretreatment of lymphocytes of piglets with allogeneic IgG modulates their reactivity to mitogens, suppressing the response to PWM and stimulating the response to PHA, respectively.  相似文献

The lymphocyte transformation (LT) test was performed using duck blood lymphocytes stimulated with phytohaemagglutinin (PHA), concanavalin A (Con A), lentil lectin (LC), Roman snail lectin (HP), peanut agglutinin (PNA), Bandeiraea simplicifolia seed lectin (BSS), wheat germ agglutinin (WGA), horseshoe crab lectin (HSC), pokeweed mitogen (PWM) and E. coli lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Cells were cultured in microtitre trays, at 41.6 degrees C, 8 x 10(5) cells in 200 microliters medium (= 4 x 10(6) cells/ml) supplemented with 10% pooled duck serum. Mitogens were added at final concentrations of 0.1-100 micrograms/ml and triplicate cultures at each concentration were harvested daily for scintillation counting 6 hr after addition of 1 microCi [3H]thymidine. Three patterns of response were observed. The responses to Con A, LC, HP and HSC were greatest at high mitogen concentrations (40-100 micrograms/ml) throughout the 7 days of culture. With PHA, PNA, WGA and LPS maximum stimulation was obtained at 3-5 days, at which time the cells were responding to lower concentrations of mitogen than were required at other times during the experiment. The response to BSS and PWM showed increasing sensitivity to lower concentrations of mitogen during the first 3 days of culture and then stimulated most strongly at 2-10 micrograms/ml in cultures harvested after 4-7 days. Cells from two ducks were cultured for 3 and 5 days with selected concentrations of these mitogens; the results confirmed the variation in response to different mitogens. It is possible that these patterns of response are the outcome of stimulating different populations of duck lymphocytes.  相似文献

A detailed comparison of the accessory cell activities was carried out among murine peritoneal cavity macrophages (PEC-Mphi), peritonea] cavity macrophages stimulated with granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) plus interleukin 4 (IL-4), the most popular cytokine combination widely used to generate dendritic cells (DC) and peritoneal cavity macrophage-derived DC (PEC-DC) using a two-way mixed lymphocyte reaction (MLR). All the cell types used efficiently induced statistically significant na?ve T cell proliferation at all culture time points and responder:stimulator ratios used. However, marked differences were noted in the magnitude of the proliferative responses. These variations may be attributed to the intensity of expression of MHC class II glycoproteins, as well as the actual numbers of MHC class II+ cells.  相似文献

The reactivity of bovine lymphocytes to 4 species of Brucella was tested in thymidine-uptake assays, using long-term cultured lymphocytes and freshly obtained blood mononuclear cells. Lymphocytes were taken from cows that had been challenge exposed with a virulent strain of B abortus at midgestation. The cows were classified retrospectively as being naturally resistant or susceptible to brucellosis. Lymphocytes taken from these cows had 3 patterns of reactivity with species of Brucella: pattern 1 was defined by reactivity with 4 species (B abortus, B canis, B suis, and B melitensis); pattern 2 was defined by reactivity with all these species, except B melitensis; pattern 3 was defined by reactivity with B abortus and B canis, but not with B suis or B melitensis. There was a statistically significant correlation between susceptibility to brucellosis and expression of lymphocyte cross-reactivity with B suis (P less than 0.01) and with B melitensis (P less than 0.001).  相似文献

Monoclonal antibodies against bovine leucocyte cell surface differentiation antigens were used in combination with a fluorescence activated cell sorter to enrich bovine haemopoietic progenitor cells present in bone marrow cell populations prior to in vitro culture. After two sequential centrifugations of the bone marrow cell suspension through Ficoll-Paque, the interface fraction was stained with a cocktail of monoclonal antibodies directed against mature monocytes/macrophages, granulocytes and lymphocytes. Using appropriate electronic window settings on a FACStar Plus, cells with a high 90 degrees light scattering property (granular cells), a low forward light scattering property (erythrocytes and reticulocytes) and cells positive for monoclonal antibodies specific for lineage-restricted leucocyte markers were removed and the negative cell fraction collected. These negatively-selected cells were stained with monoclonal antibodies specific for a pan-leucocyte or a MHC class II marker and the positive cell population was collected in a second sort and subsequently submitted to culture. All erythroid and granulocyte/macrophage colony forming cells expressed MHC class II antigens, as well as the pan-leucocyte antigen. These same progenitors did not bind any of a variety of monoclonal antibodies directed against lineage-specific antigens on lymphocytes, granulocytes or monocytes/macrophages, although they did bind monoclonal antibodies recognizing MHC class I antigens. Between 85% and 91% of the isolated cells seeded were capable of forming erythroid or granulocyte/macrophage colonies within 5 to 10 days, thus increasing the plating efficiency of these cell types in bone marrow populations by at least 60 fold.  相似文献

A highly enriched population of bovine T lymphocytes was produced from peripheral blood leukocytes following the depletion of monoclonal antibody-labelled B lymphocytes and monocytes with magnetic microspheres. This negative-enrichment protocol was simple, rapid, and specific. Also, it had a high recovery efficiency and was consistently reproducible. The enriched T lymphocytes proliferated in response to recombinant bovine interleukin 2 and, following the addition of monocytes, to concanavalin A. This methodology made it possible to determine the proliferative responses of peripheral blood lymphocytes utilizing a constant number of T lymphocytes within each assay. In this way, the in vitro T lymphocyte responses were determined independent of changes in the number of responder cells within peripheral blood.  相似文献

Tumor-associated antigens that are expressed in lymphosarcoma B cells of cattle with enzootic bovine leukosis had been analyzed in terms of their reactivity with 13 monoclonal antibodies (MAB). By use of flow cytometry and radioimmunoprecipitation, 1 of the MAB (c143) that recognized a tumor-associated antigen cross-reacted with blood lymphocytes (BL) from various mammalian species. By use of flow cytometry, the c143 MAB reacted with 10 to 49% of BL derived from human beings, mice, dogs, horses, pigs, llamas, sheep, goats, and cattle. Titer of the c143 MAB with BL from horses, pigs, human beings, and llamas ranged between 1:6.0 x 10(4) and 1:5.3 x 10(5); titer associated with BL of goats and sheep was 1:1.6 x 10(6); and that associated with BL of cattle was 1:4.3 x 10(7). The c143 MAB specifically immunoprecipitated 3 homologous proteins from cell extracts of caprine, ovine, and bovine BL (32-, 34-, and 36- to 37-kDa bovine proteins; 31-, 32-, and 36- to 37-kDa caprine proteins; and 31.5-, 33-, and 36- to 37-kDa ovine proteins), but none was immunoprecipitated from human, murine, canine, porcine, and llama BL. These results indicate that the avidity of the c143 MAB in binding to BL from ruminants (eg, goats, sheep, and cattle) is higher than that to BL from human beings, mice, dogs, horses, pigs, and llamas. In sheep, the c143 MAB could immunoprecipitate the aforementioned proteins from BL of the Suffolk breed, but not BL from the Corriedale breed, whereas the c143 MAB immunoprecipitated apparently identical proteins from BL of 4 breeds of cattle.  相似文献
