THE EFFECTS OF SUPPRESSIVE ACTIVITIES MEDIATED BY CELLS ON THE PROTECTION OF FETUS AGAINST MATERNAL IMMUNE REJECTION

Using both mixed lymphocyte reaction (MLR) and graft-versus-host reaction (GVHR) assays, investigations have been made on 60 multiparous mice of late pregnancy, derived from C57BL mating with SWI as well as C57BL mating with BGI. The results demonatrate the presence of suppressor cells both in uterus-draining-lymphnodes (DLN) and in spleen of allogeneie pregnant mice. The suppressive immune regulatory activity mediated by these cells might play an important role in the successful maintenance of fetus allograft. The possible mechanisms about the inducing of the changes in lymphocyte subpopulation are also studied in this paper.     

细胞介导的抑制效应在防止抗胎免疫反应中的作用

本文采用 GVHR和 MLR两项实验方法,对 C57BL×BG1(H-2~b×H-2~k)和C57BL×SW1(H-2~b×H-2~?)两种交配组合的60只经产妊娠小鼠进行研究.证实同种妊娠小鼠的子宫引流淋巴结和脾脏中都存在着抑制细胞,由这些细胞介导的抑制性免疫调节效应可能在成功地保护胎儿同种移植物免受排斥中起重要作用.本文还对淋巴细胞亚群发生的这种改变的机理进行了初步探讨。     

新生同种移植耐受发生机理的初步探讨——抑制细胞参与介导新生同种移植耐受

本文使用Billingham等人的方法建立了近交系SW1小鼠对C57BL小鼠的新生同种移植耐受的动物模型,并对其发生机理进行了初步探讨.结果表明,新生同种移植耐受的发生机理不能单纯地用“克隆缺失”学说来解释,而是由包括抑制细胞在内的外围主动抑制机制参与介导和维持.这种抑制细胞对射线不敏感却对丝裂霉素C处理相对敏感的实验结果提示,该抑制细胞可能是一“非均一”群体,对此尚须作进一步深入研究。     

A PRELIMINARY STUDY ON THE MECHANISM OF NEONATAL ALLOTRANSPLANTATION TOLERANCE——PARTICIPATION OF SUPPRESSOR CELLS IN THE MEDIATION OF NEONATAL ALLOTRANSPLANTATION TOLERANCE

Using a method from Billingham, an animal model of the neonatal allotransplantation tolerance of SWI to C57BL inbred mice was established and the mechanism of neonatal tolerance established by us was preliminarily studied.Our experiment indicates that the clonal deletion theory is not the unique explanation for the neonatal tolerance and a peripheral active inhibitory mechanism including suppressor cells may participate in meditating and maintaining the neonatal tolerance.The suppressor cells in the neonatal tolerance are radioresistant, but rather sensitive to mitomyein C treatment. These results suggest that suppressor cell population may be nonhomogenous. Further studies about this problem are needed.
