Peptide-independent Recognition by Alloreactive Cytotoxic T Lymphocytes (CTL)
We have isolated several H-2K(b)-alloreactive cytotoxic T cell clones and analyzed their reactivity for several forms of H-2K(b). These cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) were elicited by priming with a skin graft followed by in vitro stimulation using stimulator cells that express an H-2K(b) molecule unable to bind CD8. In contrast to most alloreactive T cells, these CTL were able to recognize H-2K...

molecule unable to bind CD8. In contrast to most alloreactive T cells, these CTL were able to recognize H-2K b on the surface of the antigen processing defective cell lines RMA-S and T2. Furthermore, this reactivity was not increased by the addition of an extract containing peptides from C57BL/6 (H-2 b ) spleen cells, nor was the reactivity decreased by treating the target cells with acid to re...
متن کاملCreation of H-2 class I epitopes using synthetic peptides: recognition by alloreactive cytotoxic T lymphocytes.
A major role that cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) play in the immune response is the specific destruction of viral-infected cells and tissue from foreign grafts. Class I molecules encoded within the major histocompatibility complex are the target structures for these CTLs. Recently, viral-restricted CTLs have been shown to recognize viral peptides in association with class I molecules, while sev...
متن کاملAntigen Recognition by Cloned Cytotoxic T Lymphocytes
Antigen recognition by cytotoxic lymphocytes (CTL) 1 and by helper T cells is restricted by gene products of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC), called H-2 in the mouse (1). CTL recognize antigens in the context of Kand D-regionencoded structures, whereas helper T cells recognize antigen in the context of I-regionencoded structures. This H-2 restriction appears to be very tight: C T L s...
متن کاملHuman cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) induced by phytohemagglutinin: conditions for CTL generation and effect of interferon.
The present study demonstrates that human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PMC) can be stimulated in vitro to become cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) by PHA. A significant cytotoxic activity of PMC was detected 48 hr after the culture initiation in the presence of 5 micrograms/ml of PHA and the peak level of the activity was obtained by culturing PMC for 72 hr. The cytotoxic cells require the p...
