The in vitro and in vivo effects of corticosteroids on peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) from ponies were studied. Prednisolone inhibited lymphocyte stimulation by phytohemagglutin (PHA) in a dose-dependent manner, without inducing lysis even at large doses. The PBL from horses heterozygous for the combined immunodeficiency trait responded to corticosteroid treatment the same as did PBL from normal ponies. Removal of the corticosteroid after incubation with PBL from normal ponies partially restored responsiveness of these cells to PHA. Chronic in vivo treatment of ponies with corticosteroids caused a marked decrease in the absolute numbers of circulating lymphocytes. Most remaining lymphocytes had detectable surface immunoglobulin and C3 receptors, suggesting a greater decrease in the T-lymphocyte population. In spite of this, there was little change in the in vitro PHA- or keyhole limpet hemocyanin-sensitized ponies. In general, the corticosteroid effects of lysis, as well as the mitogenic and antigenic responses of PBL from ponies, were similar to those previously reported for human lymphocytes.  相似文献

The distributions of phytohemagglutinin-P (PHA) and concanavalin A (ConA) binding sites were investigated for equine, bovine and canine peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL). Non-B lymphocytes were collected from each PBL using a fluorescence-activated cell sorter (FACS), and the numbers of PHA and ConA binding sites on their surfaces were counted. Most PHA binding sites on PBL of the three species were shown on the surfaces of non-B lymphocytes. On the other hand, the ConA binding sites on equine and canine PBL existed mainly on the surfaces of non-B lymphocytes, but B lymphocytes of these two species had many ConA binding sites. These results were confirmed by the results of two-parameter fluorescence analysis using FACS. It is, therefore, concluded that the different optimum concentrations of PHA and ConA in PBL blastogenic responses of each animal depended on the different distributions of their binding sites.  相似文献

The effects of prednisolone sodium succinate on the responses of porcine lymphocytes to phytohemagglutinin (PHA) and pokeweed mitogen (PWM) were investigated. Sensitivity of peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) to the synthetic glucocorticoid, prednisolone, was related to age of the lymphocyte donor. The greatest sensitivity was found in PBL from animals less than one week old; PBL from animals between 2 to 4 months retained some glucocorticoid sensitive cells; whereas, PBL from animals older than 6 months were exceptionally resistant to steroid. Similar age-associated sensitivities were found for lymphocytes from lymph node, spleen and thymus. Significant differential sensitivities among the various lymphoid organs were found with the thymic lymphocyte possessing the greatest sensitivity to steroid and the PBL lymph node and splenic lymphocytes possessing the highest resistance to the suppressive effects of steroid. The age related differences in sensitivity to steroid did not appear to be caused by differences in the number of steroid receptors because lymphocytes from susceptible and resistant animals had similar numbers of receptors. The results suggest that the age related sensitivity may be associated with a higher percentage of sensitive thymic-derived lymphocyte in the PBL, lymph node and spleen of the younger animals. Results of this study also suggest that the adult pig (6 months) should be classified as a steroid resistant species.  相似文献

Immunophysiological studies of interleukin-2 and canine lymphocytes.   总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3  
Interleukin-2-dependent pathways of lymphocyte activation were investigated in canine peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) following stimulation with T-cell mitogens including phytohemagglutinin, phorbol ester (TPA), calcium ionophore (ionomycin), and human recombinant interleukin-2 (hrIL-2). The ability of the stimulated cells to produce interleukin-2 (IL-2) was determined using murine indicator cell lines. IL-2 receptor expression by mitogen-stimulated canine PBL was confirmed by the binding of hrIL-2 with high affinity, and with characteristics comparable to those of the human and murine IL-2 receptor. Examination of serum and PBL from two dogs that were treated with hrIL-2 and human recombinant tumor necrosis factor for systemic mast cell tumors showed that in one dog, IL-2 could be measured in the serum. Concurrently, the in vitro mitogenic response of this dog's PBL to hrIL-2 occurred earlier, possibly reflecting an increase in the relative number of IL-2-responsive cells within the PBL population.  相似文献

The relationship between the optimum concentration of mitogen which induces lymphocyte blastogenic response and the receptor occupancy by mitogen was investigated. The receptor occupancies which induced maximal blastogenic activity in equine, bovine and canine peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) were 31.1 per cent, 26.5 per cent and 38.4 per cent with phytohaemagglutinin-P, and 48.2 per cent, 17.9 per cent and 24.5 per cent with concanavalin A, respectively. The data clearly show that each animal species had its own optimum concentration of mitogen for stimulation of PBL. Optimum concentration for blastogenesis and number of binding sites of each mitogen had a good correlation with each other for all three species.  相似文献

Fluoresceinated, heat-aggregated bovine immunoglobulins (B-IgG) and human immunoglobulins (H-IgG) were used to detect a receptor for the crystallizable fragment (Fc) of the immunoglobulin molecule on peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) of cattle. The aggregated and B-IgG and H-IgG bound to the bovine PBL, but aggregated H-IgG was found to be more sensitive for the detection of Fc receptors. The specificity of aggregated H-IgG binding to the Fc receptors was established by demonstrating that antigen-antibody complexes inhibited this binding, and unaggregated H-IgG did not bind significantly to PBL. Double-labeling experiments suggested that all Fc+ cells have surface immunoglobulins (SIg), a marker for B lymphocytes. The percentage of Fc+ and SIg+ cells in normal animals was 9.5% (range 4-15%) and 16.2% (range 4.5-30.2%), respectively. Persistent lymphocytotic cows had 2.71 times more Fc+ and 3.85 times more SIg+ lymphocytes than did normal cows. Cows with lymphosarcoma had a lower percentage of Fc+ and SIg+ cells than did cows with persistent lymphocytosis. Cases with thymic lymphosarcoma and those with the skin form of leukemia had normal percentages of Fc+ and SIg+ cells.  相似文献

The inhibitory effects of colchicine, vinblastine and cytochalasin D on blastogenic responses of equine, bovine and canine peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) were investigated. These drugs inhibited blastogenic responses of each PBL. The concentrations for 50% recovery in PBL blastogenic response of colchicine and vinblastine were lower in equine and canine PBL than in bovine PBL. This suggested that microtubules may be more concerned in blastogenic response of equine and canine PBL than of bovine PBL. On the other hand, the concentration for 50% recovery in PBL blastogenic response of cytochalasin D was almost the same in the PBL of each animal. This meant that microfilaments made only a small contribution to the lymphocyte blastogenic response.  相似文献

The mechanism of immunosuppression induced by leukemic bovine serum was investigated with respect to lymphokine reactions using an interleukin 2 (IL-2)-dependent bovine T cell line generated from bovine peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBLs). The suppression of concanavalin A (con A)-induced PBL blastogenesis was observed at a high rate in leukemic cattle sera. The growth of IL-2-dependent bovine T cells and IL-2 production from con A-induced bovine PBLs were also inhibited by these sera, and particularly, the latter was correlated significantly to the degree of lymphocyte blastogenesis by the mitogen. Therefore, the lesser sensitivity of lymphocytes to IL-2 and the reduced IL-2 production by activated lymphocytes seem to play a role in suppressing the lymphocyte reaction.  相似文献

In rodents and humans, lymphocytes extravasate into lymph nodes via specialized paracortical venules lined with high endothelium (HEV). Sheep and other ruminants do not have morphologically defined HEV in their lymph nodes. It has been assumed that lymphocyte extravasation in these species proceeds via analogous structures; i.e., paracortical venules lined with low to medium endothelium. In this study, lymphocyte suspensions were prepared from surgically excised lymph nodes of sheep and labeled with an intracellular fluorescent dye, H33342. Labeled cells were infused intravenously back into donors, and sheep were killed at various intervals after infusion. Frozen sections of lymph nodes were examined microscopically for the location of labeled cells. Ten minutes after infusion, labeled cells were seen in the lumen of venules located in the paracortical region of the nodes. At later time points, cells were seen apparently migrating through the venule walls and in the adjacent paracortical tissue. Similar experiments were performed in which H33342-labeled murine lymphocytes were infused into syngeneic mice. When equivalent cell numbers (based on animal size) were infused, no obvious differences were seen between location and kinetics of appearance of labeled cells in lymph nodes of sheep compared to those of mice. These results indicate that lymphocyte extravasation in sheep proceeds via paracortical venules in lymph nodes. The function of these venules appears to be analogous to HEV in nonruminant species.  相似文献

Characterization of lymphocyte subpopulations in the bovine mammary gland was accomplished using cells obtained from dry secretions. Correlation of cell surface properties with functional capacity was attempted by assaying the ability to form erythrocyte-antibody (EA) rosettes, erythrocyte-antibody-complement (EAC) rosettes, and sheep erythrocyte (E) rosettes and the ability to respond to phytohemagglutinin (PHA), Concanavalin A (Con A), and pokeweed mitogen (PWM) in the lymphocyte stimulation test. Results were compared with those obtained for peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) from the same animals. Mammary gland lymphocytes (MGL) formed significantly fewer (p < .01) EA and EAC rosettes, but significantly greater (p < .01) E rosettes compared to PBL. MGL were significantly less responsive (p < .05) to mitogens than were PBL. MGL contained a large proportion of T lymphocytes, which do not respond to T lymphocyte mitogens in culture.  相似文献

Pigs exposed to a low-virulent strain of swine fever virus (SFV) developed an inapparent infection. At times when a transient leucopenia occurred, the peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) were unresponsive to the mitogenic stimulus of anti-immunoglobulin serum (anti-Ig) and protein A.Pigs lethally infected with a virulent SFV showed leucopenia and unresponsiveness of PBL to anti-Ig and protein A from 2 days post infection until death.This suggests a defect in B lymphocyte function in pigs infected with SFV. The unresponsiveness to anti-Ig appeared not to be caused by a reduced ability of lymphocytes to redistribute their receptors into caps, the presence of suppressor cells or absence of surface immunoglobulin bearing lymphocytes in the peripheral blood. A direct action of the virus itself also seemed unlikely.Lymphocytes from spleen reacted as PBL. However, lymph node cells did not lose their capability to respond to anti-Ig.These data suggest that a change in the migration pattern of anti-Ig responsive lymphocytes could account for the observed unresponsiveness of PBL and spleen lymphocytes to anti-Ig.  相似文献

The value of [3H]-thymidine incorporation as a measurement for mitogen induced proliferation of dog peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) has been examined. The cells were cultured in RPMI 1640, enriched with 10% autologous plasma for 48 hours at 37 degrees C, 5% CO2 and 95% relative humidity. Under these conditions a great variability in [3H]-thymidine incorporation was observed. By analysis of CPM and number of activated cells (G1), it was found that comparable number of G1 cells were generated in human and dog PBL. Also, the membrane transport of thymidine was very similar for lymphocytes of the two species. Nevertheless, a low [3H]-thymidine incorporation by dog PBL was frequently seen, and this phenomenon could be related to a release of soluble substance(s) within the cultures. When the cultured cells were washed and resuspended in fresh medium immediately before pulsing, the expected CPM per G1 cell could be obtained. Since it has been described in the literature that macrophages can produce cold thymidine in macrophage enriched lymphocyte cultures, the in vitro response of non-adherent dog PBL was analyzed. Mitogen stimulation of such non-adherent cells resulted in CPM per G1 cells very similar to those obtained with washed cells. Based on these data, it is suggested that the production of cold thymidine might be one of the technical problems related to cultures of lectin stimulated dog PBL in vitro and it should be taken into consideration, if [3H]-thymidine incorporation is used as the only measure of lymphocyte proliferation.  相似文献

An E-rosetting reaction is described which gave 92.1%±2.4 (mean±S.D.) E-rosettes with bovine fetal thymocytes and 48.2%±8.4 with with bovine peripheral blood leukocyte (PBL) preparations. Both culture conditions and culture medium were critical factors in obtaining maximal and reproducible E-rosette numbers. Optimum rosette formation occurred when bovine PBL and neuraminidase treated sheep erythrocytes (nSRBC) were reacted in L-15 culture medium supplemented with 10% fetal calf serum (FCS). Other media including 100% FCS, MEM with 10% FCS, and RPMI-1640 with 10% FCS were less satisfactory. Cultural conditions found to be optimal for enumeration of bovine E-rosettes are similar to those reported as optimal for detection of human T cells. The specificity of rosette formation by bovine thymus derived (T) lymphocytes was shown by demonstration of (1) rosettes and surface membrane immunoglobulins (mIg) on different cells in PBL, (2) rosette formation by the majority of fetal thymocytes, and (3) no inhibition of rosette formation by anti-immunoglobulin serum. Using the E-rosette and mIg assays for presumptive bovine T and B lymphocytes, respectively, it was possible to differentiate from 57.5 to 90% (75.2%±9.3) of cells in bovine PBL preparations, and from 90.2 to 97.5% (94.2%±2.1) of cells in bovine fetal thymocyte preparations into T and B cells.  相似文献

The number of T. annulata sporozoites invading bovine peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) under different conditions (in vitro) was determined. Heat-inactivation of T. annulata sporozoites for 45 min, in a thermostatically controlled, shaking water bath preset and stabilised at 60 degrees C resulted in an almost total lack of invasion of fresh, normal PBL by the sporozoites, indicating that the interiorization process is parasite-effected. The mean number of T. annulata sporozoites interiorization (per 1000 lymphocytes) in cultures set up using sporozoites and PBL, mixed and incubated at 0 degrees C for 1 h in melting ice, was highly significantly reduced (P less than 0.01), indicating the invasion of bovine lymphocytes by T. annulata sporozoites is an active process dependent on active metabolism which is markedly affected by temperature. Pre-treatment of PBL with trypsin significantly reduced the number of invading sporozoites thus incriminating proteins or glycoproteins as constituents of receptors involved in sporozoite-lymphocyte recognition.  相似文献

Monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) reacting with bovine (2) ovine (3), murine (1) or human (1) Class II MHC antigens were examined for reactivity with bovine peripheral blood leucocytes (PBL) and lymph node cells (LNC) by immunofluorescence, immunoprecipitation and the capacity to inhibit mixed lymphocyte responses (MLR), lectin- and antigen-induced blastogenesis. The 6 MAbs identified comparable percentages of Class II positive lymphocytes in PBL (40.8 to 54.2%) and LNC (6 to 11.5%) regardless of BoLA-A phenotype. Immunohistological staining of Class II MAb was localized principally to the lymphoid follicles in lymph nodes and to isolated epithelial reticular cells in the thymus. The anti-Class II MAb immunoprecipitated alpha- and beta- chains of 26-29K and 32-34K, respectively. These MAb inhibited proliferative responses in the MLR by between 25 and 74%, and diminished blastogenesis induced by specific antigens (purified protein derivative + PPD and ovalbumin) and B-lymphocyte mitogens (PPD, lipopolysaccharide and dextran sulphate) by between 45 and 75%, regardless of BoLA-A phenotype. In contrast, proliferation in response to concanavalin A and phytohaemagglutinin were unaffected by the anti- Class II MAb. Similarly these MAb did not affect lysis by cytotoxic T-lymphocytes, the activity of which was depressed by anti-Class I MAbs and monospecific alloantisera.  相似文献

Canine adherent and non-adherent peripheral blood leukocytes and spleen cells were examined for their ability to produce soluble factors with Interleukin 1- and 2- (IL-1 and IL-2) like activities. For this purpose, three conventional assay systems were used: (a) proliferation on an IL-2-dependent murine cytotoxic T-lymphocyte cell line, (b) enhancement of PHA-induced murine thymocyte proliferation and (c) proliferation of lectin-primed canine peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL). Only the latter two types of cells respond to IL-1, whereas all three types respond to IL-2. Both types of factors were produced and the kinetics of their release/production were found to be identical to those of human PBL. Results suggested that species-related differences existed. Canine interleukin-containing supernatants had higher titers than murine interleukin-containing supernatants when analyzed on canine lymphocytes, and the reverse was found if murine target cells were used.  相似文献

The distribution of lymphocyte subpopulations from dry secretions, colostrum and blood from 10 healthy adult Hostein-Fresian cows was studied using the TH21A and B26A mouse monoclonal antibodies (MAb) to adult bovine B and T lymphocytes, respectively. The mammary gland lymphocytes (MGL) were isolated from composite sample of all four quarters by density centrifugation over discontinuous gradient of ficoll-diatrizoate. The peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) were purified using the ficoll-thrombin method. Isolated PBL and MGL were analyzed using the two fluorochromes method (TFM) and laser flow cytometry (LFC). The mean viability of isolated PBL and MGL from dry secretions and colostrum after the TFM and LFC were 92.4% +/- 3.2%, 91.4% +/- 6.0% and 87.1% +/- 6.1%, respectively. There was a good correlation between the two MAbs and the percentage of surface immunoglobulin (SIg) positive cells in the peripheral blood using the TFM. The PBL yielded a mean percentage of 21.2% B cells, 66.4% T cells and 9.4% "Null cells" (TH21A+; SIg-). The TFM on MGL from dry secretions and colostrum indicated two distinct patterns (group I and II) of SIg and reactivity to MAb markers (p less than 0.001). The MGL data included in group I and group II were gathered from both colostral and dry secretions. In comparison to the distribution of lymphocyte subsets within peripheral blood the mean percentages of B cells, T cells and "Null cells" in the mammary gland were respectively, 2.8%, 88.1% and 5.4% for group I and 3.5%, 89.0% and 15.1% for group II. In the mammary secretions, the use of SIg alone was not considered to be a good marker for B cells; in four animals a mean percentage of 15.6% (13.9/89.0 X 100) of the mammary gland T lymphocytes were also SIg+. Of the TH21A+ MGL, only 18.8% were SIg+ in group II compared with 34.1% for MGL from group I and 69.3% for the PBL. Marked differences in cell size distribution and cell surface antigen density were found when PBL and MGL from dry secretions were compared by LFC using the B26A MAb. The results of this study demonstrate a difference in the percentages of peripheral blood and mammary gland B and T lymphocytes and confirm previous findings in which the T lymphocytes were found to represent the major subpopulation of lymphocytes in bovine mammary secretions. This may represent an essential event in the adoptive transfer of cellular immunity through the colostrum in cattle.  相似文献

It is known that certain strains of bacteria bind selectively to subpopulations of human peripheral blood lymphocytes. We have developed a technique which used the specificity of bacterial binding concurrently with fluorescent antibody staining methods to identify 5 B-cell and 5 T-cell subpopulations of bovine lymphocytes. In addition, greater than 95% of the peripheral blood lymphocytes could be positively identified as being either T-cells or B cells. Using ethidium bromide-stained bacteria and lymphocytes in combination with fluorescent antibody staining to detect surface immunoglobulins or T-cell antigens, the method provided a simple yet highly specific technique for the enumeration of both B and T cells in 1 preparation of peripheral blood lymphocytes. The use of bacterial rosetting with fluorescent antibody staining was found to be easier and more reliable than the methods currently used to identify bovine B- and T-lymphocyte subpopulations.  相似文献
