Release from maternally-induced allotypic suppression in rabbit by Nocardia water-soluble mitogen
نویسندگان
چکیده
The in vitro synthesis of allotypes of b4/b5 offspring obtained from b4/b4 mothers immunized against paternal allotype b5/b5 was studied in comparison to similar offspring that had escaped from suppression and normal heterozygous b4/b5 rabbits. Nocardia water-soluble mitogen-a rabbit B-cell mitogen which is known to induce the differentiation of small lymphocytes into plasma cells and polyclonal activation of Ig, was able to break in vitro the allotypic suppression induced in vivo.

A role for clonal dominance in the maintenance of allotype suppression?
The establishment of immunological memory during the early and complete phase of allotype suppression in the young rabbit has been shown to lead to the preferential production of antibodies with the nonsuppressed allotypic specificity in response to recall injections given after spontaneous or induced release from suppression. It is suggested that this manifestation of clonal dominance, applied...
متن کاملInduction of immunoglobulin allotypic suppression in the rabbit: a cellular approach.
Adult rabbits were sensitized against rabbit immunoglobulin allotypic specificities of the a and b series by means of two injections of their own lymphocytes coated with the appropriate IgG. The splenic lymphocytes from these sensitized rabbits were injected, 24 hr after birth, into newborns that had inherited from their father the allotypic specificities susceptible to recognition by the sensi...
متن کاملProstaglandin E2 in Soluble Factor-Mediated Immune Suppression by First Trimester Decidual Cells
Several studies have shown that decidual tissue produces soluble factors which can mediate a variety of immunosuppressive activities. In order to assess whether prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) was present in supernatants produced by explant culture of 10 human specimens of first trimester decidua. The effect of the supernatants from the two different series (with and without indomethacin treatment) ...
متن کاملGardenia jasminoides extracts and gallic acid inhibit lipopolysaccharide-induced inflammation by suppression of JNK2/1 signaling pathways in BV-2 cells
Objective(s): Gardenia jasminoides Ellis (GJ, Cape Jasmine Fruit, Zhi Zi) has been traditionally used for the treatment of infectious hepatitis, aphthous ulcer, and trauma; however, the direct evidence is lacking. Materials and Methods:We investigated the effect of the GJ extract(GJ) and gallic acid (GA) on lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induced inflammation of BV-2 microglial cells and acute liver ...
متن کاملαB-crystallin reduces ristocetin‑induced soluble CD40 ligand release in human platelets: suppression of thromboxane A2 generation.
Our group has previously shown that αB-crystallin (HSPB5), a small heat shock protein, inhibits human platelet aggregation by ristocetin, an activator of glycoprotein Ib/IX/V. In addition, it was demonstrated that glycoprotein Ib/IX/V activation induces soluble CD40 (sCD40) ligand release via thromboxane (TX) A2. In the present study, the effect of αB-crystallin on the ristocetin-induced sCD40 ...
