چکیده

Murine L3T4 T cells freshly isolated from Peyer's Patch were fractionated based on differential adherence to Vicia villosa agglutinin (VVA). VVA adherent cells secreted IL-5, but not IL-2, after stimulation with Con A and IL-1. In striking contrast, VVA nonadherent PP L3T4 T cells secreted IL-2, but not IL-5, under the same conditions. In addition, supernatants from VVA adherent, but not from VVA nonadherent cells cultures, enhanced IgA secretion by LPS-stimulated splenic B cells to the same extent as purified IL-5. Thus, IL-5-producing T cells are present in PP in situ and may play an important role in the development of mucosal immunity. Further, differential adherence to VVA can be used to separate T cell populations that preferentially secrete IL-5 or IL-2.

Freshly Isolated Peyer's Patch, but Not Spleen, Dendritic Cells Produce Interleukin 10 and Induce the Differentiation of T Helper Type 2 Cells

Orally administered antigens often generate immune responses that are distinct from those injected systemically. The role of antigen-presenting cells in determining the type of T helper cell response induced at mucosal versus systemic sites is unclear. Here we examine the phenotypic and functional differences between dendritic cells (DCs) freshly isolated from Peyer's patches (PP) and spleen (S...

Differential Vicia villosa agglutinin reactivity identifies three distinct dystroglycan complexes in skeletal muscle.

We present evidence for the expression of three alpha-dystroglycan glycoforms in skeletal muscle cells, including two minor glycoforms marked by either patent or latent reactivity with the N-acetylgalactosamine-specific lectin Vicia villosa agglutinin. Both minor glycoforms co-isolated with beta-dystroglycan, but not with other dystrophin/utrophin-glycoprotein complex components, suggesting tha...

Correlated expression of T cell growth factor dependence, sensitivity to Vicia villosa lectin, and cytolytic activity in hybrids between cytolytic T cells and T lymphomas

Somatic cell fusion between cytolytically active, T cell growth factor- (TCGF) dependent murine T cell lines (CTL lines) and noncytolytic, TCGF-independent murine T lymphoma lines has yielded two types of somatic cell hybrids (5): cytolytic hybrids, growth of which is dependent on TCGF, and hybrids with very weak or undetectable cytolytic activity which grow at the same rate with or without TCG...

Relationship between expression of IgA by Peyer's patch cells and functional IgA memory cells

IgA memory B cells have been operationally defined as precursors that give rise to clones exclusively secreting IgA antibodies upon antigen stimulation in a T-cell dependent splenic fragment culture. B lymphocytes that are sIgA+ account for a small fraction of Peyer's patch lymphocytes, but these can be clearly divided into two subsets. One subset contains the majority of sIgA+ B cells and most...

Interaction of bluetongue virus with bovine lymphocytes.

Freshly isolated, and established, cultures of bovine peripheral blood mononuclear leukocytes (PBMLs) were exposed to bluetongue virus (BTV) for the purpose of defining potential lymphotropism. PBML cultures were established in the presence of interleukin 2 (IL-2) and mitogen and maintained either as bulk culture or were cloned prior to infectivity studies. All cultures appeared to be of the T ...
