    Notes: Abstract The HLA-linked “SB” antigens comprise a new segregant series of B-cell alloantigens mapping between HLA-DR and glyoxylase. They can be detected by secondary proliferative responses of lymphocytes primed against HLA-A, B, C, DR, MB- and MT-compatible stimulators. To assess genetic complexity of the SB-gene region, alloreactive cloned T-cell lines were derived from four reagents detecting specificities designated SB2 and SB3. In two families, products detected by seven different clones segregated with the HLA haplotypes bearing the SB2 or SB3 specificities as recognized by the uncloned reagents. There were no indications that the cloned cells differed from the oligoclonal reagents in their fine specificity. In contrast to previous results with an S134-associated specificity, in population studies of 25 S132-positive and 23 SB3-positive donors, no evidence could be found for subtypes of either specificity. Thus, even at the level of recognition by cloned T-cells, both S132 and SB3 appear to be remarkably homogeneous in the population.

    Notes: Abstract The lymphoma cell line BJAB.B95.8.6 was gamma-irradiated to induce mutations of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) encoded genes. Cloned “wild-type” cells were phenotyped HLA-A1, A2, B 13, 1335, Bw4, Bw6, Cw4, DR5, DRw52, DQwl, DQw3, DPw2, DPw4, GLO1*1, PGM3*2-1, and ME1*0 and possessed two apparently normal chromosome 6s prior to mutagenesis. Loss mutants were selected 5 days after 3 Gy gamma-irradiation employing three complement-fixing monoclonal antibodies specific for HLA-A2 (TÜ101) and Bw4 (TÜ48, TÜ109). Fifteen independently arising mutants were isolated and cloned. Typing with monospecific alloantisera and cell-mediated lympholysis revealed the presence of HLA-A1, 835, Bw6, Cw4, DR5. DRw52, DQw3, and DPw4 specificities on all mutant clones. HLA-A2, B13, and Bw4 were absent. Mutants differed in their expression of class 11 antigens. One group retained DQw1 and DPw2, another was DQw1−, DPw2+, and a third was DQw1−, DPw2−. Karyotyping of the “wild-type” line and selected mutant clones showed that the loss of HLA specificities correlated with deletions which map the HLA-A and -B loci directly to the distal part of the 6p2l.33 region and the class II genes to the region 6p21.33 (proximal) to 6p21.31 (distal) on the short arm of chromosome 6.

    Notes: Abstract Alloactivated human lymphocytes were cloned by limiting dilution. After 1 month in culture with T-cell growth factor several clones incorporated tritiated thymidine when stimulated with the appropriate allogeneic cells. Specificity of restimulation of two primed lymphocyte clones, designated 12-2 and 12-8, was studied in detail after varying periods of culture (up to 50 days). Clone 12-2 cells were stimulated only by cells expressing the HLA-Dw antigens of the original priming cells (Dw3); furthermore, this primed lymphocyte reagent specifically recognized antigens associated with only one of the three distinct Dw3-bearing haplotypes from an informative family (KOH). Clone 12-8 cells, on the other hand, failed to recognize Dw3 antigens in the random panel or on homozygous typing cells (including the original priming cell), but were strongly restimulated by certain cells expressing Dw4 antigens. In addition, within family KOH, these restimulating products segregated with another one of the three Dw3-bearing haplotypes but with none of the three Dw4-bearing haplotypes. These two clones exemplify a hitherto unknown precision in cellular typing of theHLA-D region. Clone 12-2 allows the discrimination of a probably rare and as yet undetected HLA-Dw3 subtypic specificity. Clone 12-8, on the other hand, apparently identifies an allelic system segregating withHLA but distinct from the HLA-D determinants definable by HTC-typing.

    Notes: Secretion of different cytokines may be an important T-cell effector mechanism for bone marrow engraftment, graft versus host disease and graft versus leukaemia effects after allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT). Cytokine secretion and autocrine proliferative capacity of T-cell clones derived from leukaemia patients 3–6 weeks after allogeneic bone marrow transplantation were investigated. Only a minority of post-transplant T-cell clones (23/120; 19%) was capable of undergoing autocrine proliferation. By contrast, 21/65 (32%) normal control clones from the marrow donors derived under the same conditions were autocrine proliferative. All clones were interleukin-2 (IL-2) responsive. A majority (12/17; 71%) of autocrine proliferating post-transplant clones secreted detectable IL-2. Compared with control clones, CD4+ T-cell clones derived early after BMT produced decreased levels of interleukin-4 (IL-4) and interleukin-6 (IL-6), whereas secretion of interleukin-3 (IL-3) and granulocyte/macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) showed no significant difference. The small number (n = 8) of post-transplant CD8+ clones showed decreased production of IL-3, IL-4 and IL-6 compared with control clones, but normal secretion of GM-CSF. Neither CD4+ nor CD8+ T-cell clones secreted interleukin-7 (IL-7).

    Notes: Human lymphocytes alloactivated in vitro were cloned by limiting dilution in the presence of filler cells and interleukin 2 (IL 2)-containing supernatants of phytohaemagglutinin-stimulated lymphocytes. Clones with allospecific proliferative reactivity (PLT clones), measured by tritiated thymidine (3H-TdR) incorporation, were selected for extensive IL 2-dependent expansion. The cloned lines had finite lifespans, ranging from an estimated minimum of 28 to 〉 65 doublings. Function as PLT reagents, however, was retained in all cases for only an estimated 30 cell doublings. This apparent cessation of function was not caused by loss of the ability to metabolize thymidine, since lines continuing to grow for 〉 30 doublings still incorporated 3H-TdR in the presence of IL 2. An altered requirement for stimulating antigen (number of stimulating cells), or altered response kinetics, did not contribute to loss of PLT function. Exogenous IL 2 added during restimulation to responders previously ‘rested’ overnight without IL 2 did not restore the response. Thus, under present experimental conditions, functional lifespans of cloned PLT reagents appear fixed at ˜ 30 cell doublings.

    Notes: Summary Regulatory effects of mixed lymphocyte culture (MLC)-derived CD4+ human T cell clones on granulocyte-macrophage colony (CFU-GM) formation by normal bone marrow (BM) were studied in an initial attempt to establish an in vitro model for the negative feedback control of myelopoiesis by alloactivated T cells. This is likely to be of clinical significance in the aberrant control of haematopoiesis during some cases of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) after allogeneic BM transplantation. Whilst 5 such alloproliferative clones generally failed to suppress CFU-GM, the majority of clones with natural killer (NK)-like activity [10], or those with suppressive activity in MLC [2], regularly and strongly suppressed in this system, reinforcing the view that certain T cells may have potent negative regulatory effects on haematopoiesis.

    Notes: Summary A panel of alloindifferent monoclonal antibodies (MAB's) was used in complement-dependent lysis to characterize human myeloid, erythroid and multipotential progenitors (CFU-GM, BFU-E, CFU-GEMM) for their expression of MHC class II HLA-DR, -DP, and -DQ products. 7–16 donors were tested in each system. MAB Tü 34, detecting DR products, caused reduction of CFU-GM by a mean of 89%, whereas BFU-E and CFU-GEMM were reduced by 67% and 66% respectively. 35% of CFU-GM, 27% of BFU-E and 32% of CFU-GEMM were lysed by MAB B7/21, recognizing HLA-DP determinants, while Tü 22, binding HLA-DQ antigens, lysed 32% only of CFU-GM and did not lyse the other progenitors. Employing the “broad” MAB Tü 39, which binds at least DR and DP, inhibition of colony formation by CFU-GM was generally greater than that caused by Tü 34 alone or even by combinations of Tü 34, Tü 22, and B7/21. This suggests that there may be a subset of DR−, DP−, DQ− hematopoietic progenitors, which nonetheless bind MAB Tü 39, previously proposed as a candidate for the recognition of novel class II antigens.
