Abstract
  • Transgenic mice expressing human major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II molecules would provide a valuable model system for studying murine anti-human MHC immune response. We have previously shown that skin from HLA-DR1 transgenic mice was rejected by control littermates and spleen cells from rejecting mice were able to proliferate to donor cells. The aim of this paper is to analyze the mechanism of recognition of this xenoantigen and the possible involvement of antibody response in anti-HLA-DR1 immune response. Control littermates were immunized with spleen cells from HLA-DR1 transgenic (TG) mice; at indicated times, xenoantigen-specific proliferation and IFN gamma production was assessed using APC obtained from HLA-DR1 TG mice. Mixed direct-indirect pathway of xenoantigen recognition was suggested by the following findings: i)T cell response to HLA-DR1 was inhibited adding in culture monoclonal antibodies directed either to donor (HLA-DR) or to recipient MHC (I-A); ii) APC from control mice pulsed with purified DR1 molecules were able to induce proliferation by FVB/N mice immunized with transgenic spleen cells. HLA-DR1 recognition permits DR peptide-specific T cell response by lymphocytes of control littermates immunized with the xenoantigen. In addition, we detected xenoreactive IgM and IgG2 antibodies. Our data suggest that HLA-DR1 xenoantigen may be recognized through direct or indirect pathway and provide additional information on mouse anti-human HLA immune response. (literal)
