Abstract
The present study investigates the role of APC in inducing tumor-specific in vivo protective immunity. Thy-1+ cell-depleted, Mac-1+ cell-enriched fraction of normal BALB/c spleen cells were used as a source of APC. These APC were cultured in vitro with the membrane fraction isolated from CSA1M fibrosarcoma derived from BALB/c strain. The administration of such APC into naive BALB/c mice generated the capacity of these animals to reject the subsequently challenged viable CSA1M tumor cells. Although the induction of anti-CSA1M in vivo protective immunity required three consecutive immunizations with more than 10(5) APC which had been pulsed in vitro with 200 to 300 micrograms protein of CSA1M membrane fraction, the immunity was induced irrespective of whether APC were administered via s.c., i.v., or i.p. route. This immunity was tumor-specific, inasmuch as the inoculation of CSA1M or Meth A fibrosarcoma membrane component-pulsed APC resulted in the selective immunity against the challenge with homologous types of tumor cells. The CSA1M-specific in vivo protective immunity was also induced by injecting APC pulsed with solubilized CSA1M membrane components. Moreover, it was demonstrated that the efficiency for inducing anti-CSA1M immunity was much higher in the utilization of tumor Ag-pulsed APC than in the immunization with tumor Ag emulsified in CFA. These results indicate the critical role of APC in generating tumor rejection immunity in vivo and this model presents a novel approach to induce tumor-specific immunity without using tumor cells themselves.

Abstract
We extracted immunoreactive CCKs from rat duodenum and brain. We fractionated these samples by gel-filtration and analyzed with immunoreactivity and bioactivity of each fraction. 1) Elution profile of CCKs in duodenum and brain was well corresponding to that of bioactive CCKs. 2) Contents of CCKs determined by both RIA and Bioassay in each fraction were well correlated with each other. 3) Apparent molecular weights of CCKs of duodenum calibrated in column chromatography were approximately 2200, 1000 and 800. 4) Apparent molecular weight of CCK of brain seemed to be 1000.

Abstract
Thymic stromal cell lines, termed MRL104 and MRL28, have been isolated from long-term liquid cultures of thymic stromal cells from MRL/l mice. The capacities of these parental lines and derived clones to express Ia antigens and to produce cytokines involved in T-cell proliferation and/or differentiation were investigated. Parental lines and their clones did not exhibit a typical fibroblastic, macrophage-like, or epithelial appearance in electron as well as phase-contrast micrographs. These thymic stromal cells seemed to differ from established fibroblast lines in that these thymic stromal cells expressed Ia antigens after exposure to interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma), whereas fibroblast lines did not. They also appeared to differ from macrophage cell lines in that they lacked the expression of Mac-1 antigens on their cell surface and produced no detectable level of interleukin-1 (IL1) before or even after exposure to lipopolysaccharide. When these parental lines and its clones were tested for their ability to produce various types of cytokines, it was revealed that they were capable of producing colony-stimulating factor (CSF), IL6, and thymic stroma-derived T cell growth factor (TSTGF), which was recently described, but were unable to generate other lymphokines and IFNs. Thus these cell lines and clones represent unique features in that they have potentials to express Ia antigens and to produce CSF, IL6, and TSTGF. The biological significance for the expression of these features is discussed in the context of intrathymic T-cell maturation and T-cell repertoire selection.

Abstract
Intercellular contacts are thought to be a crucial event in various aspects of immune responses. We have recently suggested that the self class II MHC-restricted B-B cell interaction is a prerequisite process in the polyclonal B cell differentiation induced by a novel T cell-derived lymphokine B151-TRF2 or LPS. The results have led us to the possibility that such a class II MHC-restricted B-B cell interaction promotes the formation of B cell clusters responsible for the development of IgM-producing cells upon subsequent stimulation with the polyclonal B cell activator. To examine directly this possibility, the present study has utilized a recently devised ACAS470 work station capable of sorting out desired cells in a tissue culture plate in situ. Clusters and non-clusters were observed after 2 day preculture of murine resting B cells in the absence of the polyclonal B cell activator. Interestingly, B cells in clusters purified by the ACAS470 gave rise to IgM-producing cells when stimulated with B151-TRF2 or LPS for an additional 2 days, whereas non-clustered B cells failed to differentiate. Moreover, such a B cell activation was not observed when the 2 day preculture of the resting B cells was conducted in the presence of anti-class II MHC mAb but not of anti-class I MHC mAb. Thus, the present results support the notion that cluster formation among small resting B cells accompanying the class II MHC-restricted B-B cell interaction makes the B cells responsive to differentiation signals of polyclonal B cell activator.

Abstract
We examined the effect of porcine gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP-27) and other analogous neuropeptides on cholecystokinin (CCK) secretion from the isolated perfused rat duodenum. GRP-27 stimulated CCK secretion in a monophasic pattern and in a dose-dependent manner ranging from 10(-9) M to 10(-6) M, and 10(-7) M of GRP-27 led to an increment of 442 +/- 120.8 fmol/3 min. The stimulatory effect of GRP-27 on CCK was not inhibited by 10(-5) M of atropine. 10(-7) M of neuromedin C and B, analogs of GRP, stimulated CCK secretion to increments of 382 +/- 64.1 and 289 +/- 47.2 fmol/3 min, respectively. Carbachol (10(-9) to 10(-6) M), VIP (10(-9)M), secretin (10(-9)M) and glucose (11 mM) did not stimulate CCK secretion, and the addition of atropine (10(-5)M) to them led to no significant changes. These results suggest that GRP may directly stimulate CCK secretion from the duodenum and work as a non-cholinergic, peptidergic neurotransmitter.

Abstract
Serological cross-reactivity among swine mycoplasmas, and porcine antibody response to Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae antigens during experimental infection were investigated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and the immunoblotting technique. Mycoplasmas solubilized with Tween 20 were used as antigen. Cross-reactivity between M. hyopneumoniae and M. flocculare was indicated by ELISA and it was demonstrated by immunoblotting, which revealed that the predominant cross-reactive antigens were components of M. hyopneumoniae with molecular weights of 74,000 (74 K) and 53 K. Further, it was indicated that 96 K, 70 K, 46 K and 38 K antigenic components of M. hyopneumoniae and 67 K, 56 K and 23 K antigens of M. flocculare were specific for the respective species. Antibodies to 96 K, 76 K, 70 K, 53 K, 46 K and 38 K antigens were detected in serum from pigs experimentally infected with M. hyopneumoniae. Of these antibodies, those against the 46 K antigen reacted early and were most consistently detected during experimental infection. Therefore, the antibodies against the 46 K antigen of M. hyopneumoniae proved to be excellent markers of mycoplasmal pneumonia of swine.

Abstract
Two distinct murine B-cell differentiation factors, designated B151-TRF1 and B151-TRF2, were described originally as B151K12 T-cell hybridoma-derived lymphokines that induce immunoglobulin (Ig) secretion by antigen-activated B cells and unstimulated B cells, respectively. In the present study, we found that a highly purified B151-TRF1 fraction prepared by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) also has the ability to cause a polyclonal differentiation of unstimulated B cells into IgM-secreting cells in the apparent absence of co-stimulant. The activity of the B151-TRF1 fraction but not the B151-TRF2 fraction on unstimulated B cells was markedly inhibited by addition of a monoclonal antibody (mAb) specific for the B151-TRF1/IL-5 to the culture. To determine whether B151-TRF1/IL-5 and B151-TRF2 act on distinct populations among unstimulated B cells, the responsiveness of neonatal B cells and adult B cells that had been fractionated by Percoll density gradient centrifugation was assessed. B151-TRF1/IL-5 predominantly acted on lower density B cells, which appeared around 3 weeks after birth in the spleen. In contrast, B151-TRF2 could activate both lower and higher density B cells almost equally and B151-TRF2-responsive B cells were already present by 1 week of age. Thus, these results suggest that B151-TRF1/IL-5 and B151-TRF2 act on distinct subpopulations among antigen-unprimed normal B cells to induce IgM-secreting cells.

Abstract
The culture supernatant (SN) from a cloned line of thymic stroma-derived cells in fibroblastic form (TSCF) contained a factor capable of supporting the growth of the interleukin (IL) 2-dependent, antigen-specific helper T cell (Th) clone 9-16 without requiring IL2 and antigen. This active substance, designated as thymic stroma-derived T-cell growth factor (TSTGF), was partially purified through DEAE-Sephacel chromatography and PBE 94 chromatofocusing. The original SN did not contain IL1, IL2, IL3, IL4, or interferon activities; but an appreciable magnitude of colony-stimulating factor (CSF) activity in addition to TSTGF was present, whereas the partially purified preparation of TSTGF was depleted of any type of CSF activity. The elution profile of TSTGF activity on the chromatofocusing has revealed that TSTGF has an isoelectric point (pI) of about 6.0. When a purified TSTGF sample was applied to Sephacryl S-200 column chromatography and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, TSTGF activity was eluted in a single peak around an apparent molecular weight of about 25,000. The activity of TSTGF also was shown to be relatively stable with heat treatment and in the wide range of pH, but it was abolished by treatment with either trypsin or dithiothreitol. These results indicate that TSTGF, a novel T-cell growth factor, is the protein that has an apparent molecular weight of about 25,000 and a pI of 6.0, and in the intact molecule, it contains the disulfide bond(s) required to maintain and/or express its biologic activity.

Abstract
The present study investigates the distinctiveness of Class I H-2 alloantigen-reactive Lyt-2+ helper/proliferative T cell subset in the aspect of tolerance induction. Primary mixed lymphocyte reactions (MLR) revealed that Lyt-2+ and L3T4+ T cell subsets from C57BL/6 (B6) mice were exclusively capable of responding to class I H-2 [B6-C-H-2bm1 (bm1)]- and class II H-2 [B6-C-H-2bm12 (bm12)]-alloantigens, respectively. Anti-bm12 MLR was not affected by i.v. injection of bm12 spleen cells into recipient B6 mice. In contrast, a single i.v. administration of bm1 spleen cells into B6 mice resulted in the abrogation of the capacity of recipient B6 spleen and lymph node cells to give anti-bm1 MLR. This suppression was bm1 alloantigen-specific, since lymphoid cells from B6 mice i.v. presensitized with bm1 cells exhibited comparable anti-bm12 primary MLR to that obtained by normal B6 lymphoid cells. Such tolerance was rapidly (24 h after the i.v. injection of bm1 cells) inducible and lasting for at shortest 3 wk. Addition of lymphoid cells from anti-bm1-tolerant B6 mice to cultures of normal B6 lymphoid cells did not suppress the proliferative responses of the latter cells, indicating that the tolerance is not due to the induction of suppressor cells but attributed to the elimination or functional impairment of anti-bm1 proliferative clones. The tolerance was also demonstrated by the failure of tolerant lymphoid cells to produce IL-2. It was, however, found that anti-bm1 CTL responses were generated by tolerant lymphoid cells which were unable to induce the anti-bm1 MLR nor to produce detectable level of IL-2. These results demonstrate that class I H-2 alloantigen-reactive Lyt-2+ Th cell subset exhibits a distinct property which is expressed by neither Lyt-2+ CTL directed to class I H-2 nor L3T4+ Th cells to class II H-2 alloantigens.

Abstract
Both NZB nu/+ and NZW nu/+ mice were microbially clean by cesarean section. The (NZB x NZW)F1 hybrid (NZB/W) nu/nu mice and nu/+ littermates were then generated by mating of NZB nu/+ with NZW nu/+mice under specific pathogen-free conditions. The female NZB/W F1 nu/nu mice did not develop autoimmune kidney disease, whereas all of nu/+ female littermates mice exhibited proteinuria and died of renal failure with a 50% survival time of 35 wk. Namely, nude mice had no signs of proteinuria up to the time of their death caused by other diseases rather than glomerulonephritis, and their mean survival time was greater than 45 wk. Nude mice had also no anti-ssDNA antibody in their serum. However, splenic B cells of NZB/W nude mice exhibited hyper-responsiveness to both LPS and B151-TRF2, a T cell-derived polyclonal B cell-stimulation factor, and produced large numbers of Ig-secreting cells and anti-TNP plaque-forming cells as well as anti-ssDNA antibody comparable to the nu/+ littermate mice. Interestingly, thymus-engrafted NZB/W nude mice developed autoimmune disease exemplified by the induction of anti-ssDNA antibody and proteinuria at approximately the same time as their nu/+ littermates. These results indicate that the B cell hyper-responsiveness found in NZB/W mice is apparently determined by the T cell-independent process, and T cells are obligatorily required for the development of autoimmune disease in NZB/W mice.

Abstract
C3H/He mice hyperimmune against syngeneic MH134 hepatoma were prepared by intradermal (id) inoculation of viable tumor cells followed by surgical resection of the tumor and by repeated id challenges with viable tumor cells. Winn assays performed utilizing spleen cells from these mice have revealed that both Lyt-2+ and L3T4+ T cell subsets from MH134-hyperimmune mice produced complete tumor protection. The in vivo tumor-neutralizing activity was also found in spleen cells from tumor-bearing mice at various times after id implantation of MH134 tumor cells. However, in contrast to comparable tumor-neutralization by Lyt-2+ and L3T4+ T subsets from hyperimmune mice, only the Lyt-2+ T cell subset from tumor-bearing mice was capable of mediating the in vivo protective immunity. L3T4+ T cell-mediated immunity was not detectable in the tumor-bearing state irrespective of the length of the sensitization period with a primary growing tumor, but emerged in the mice which resisted the first tumor challenge after the resection of the primary tumor. These results indicate that the emergence of L3T4+ T cell-mediated anti-tumor immunity is stage-dependent and the Lyt-2+ T cells represent the main functional subset in the tumor-bearing state, although both subsets of T cells are potentially capable of effecting anti-tumor in vivo immunity. The results are discussed in relation to the selective suppression of the L3T4+ but not of Lyt-2+ T cell function in the tumor-bearing state.

Abstract
Survival rates of Salmonella dublin in rabbit serum after culture for 1 h at 37 degrees C were compared between a wild-type strain (5240) carrying a 50 MDa plasmid, a plasmid-cured strain (C524), and a cured strain containing the 50 MDa plasmid tagged with Tn1 (5241). Strain C524 was more susceptible to the bactericidal activity of normal serum than its parent strain 5240 (percentage survival less than 1% and 52.5 +/- 9.2%, respectively). On the other hand, the percentage survival of strain 5241 was significantly increased (90.4 +/- 4.0%), indicating that the reintroduction of the plasmid into the cured strain restored the serum resistance. Moreover, this change in the serum resistance properties correlated with changes in the neutral sugar composition of the lipopolysaccharides (LPS) of these strains, suggesting that the 50 MDa plasmid is necessary for O-side chain expression in the LPS of S. dublin.

Abstract
Both NZB nu/+ and NZW nu/+ mice were microbially clean by cesarean section. The (NZB x NZW)F1 hybrid (NZB/W) nu/nu mice and nu/+ littermates were then generated by mating of NZB nu/+ with NZW nu/+mice under specific pathogen-free conditions. The female NZB/W F1 nu/nu mice did not develop autoimmune kidney disease, whereas all of nu/+ female littermates mice exhibited proteinuria and died of renal failure with a 50% survival time of 35 wk. Namely, nude mice had no signs of proteinuria up to the time of their death caused by other diseases rather than glomerulonephritis, and their mean survival time was greater than 45 wk. Nude mice had also no anti-ssDNA antibody in their serum. However, splenic B cells of NZB/W nude mice exhibited hyper-responsiveness to both LPS and B151-TRF2, a T cell-derived polyclonal B cell-stimulation factor, and produced large numbers of Ig-secreting cells and anti-TNP plaque-forming cells as well as anti-ssDNA antibody comparable to the nu/+ littermate mice. Interestingly, thymus-engrafted NZB/W nude mice developed autoimmune disease exemplified by the induction of anti-ssDNA antibody and proteinuria at approximately the same time as their nu/+ littermates. These results indicate that the B cell hyper-responsiveness found in NZB/W mice is apparently determined by the T cell-independent process, and T cells are obligatorily required for the development of autoimmune disease in NZB/W mice.

Abstract
T cell-depleted C3H/He or (C57BL/6xC3H/He)F1 (B6C3F1) mice were prepared by adult thymectomy and injection of antithymocyte serum, followed 3 wk later by lethal x-irradiation and bone marrow reconstitution. When these T cell-depleted mice were not injected or injected i.v. with normal spleen and lymph node cells treated with either anti-Thy-1, -L3T4 or -Lyt-2 antibody plus C or C alone, none of the groups of mice developed thyroiditis. In contrast, the adoptive transfer of normal cells treated with anti-Lyt-1 plus C resulted in high incidence of the production of antithyroglobulin antibody and the induction of typical thyroiditis lesion. The thyroid was the sole organ involved, because neither typical inflammatory lesion in other organs nor autoantibody such as anti-DNA antibody was detected in mice that exhibited thyroiditis. Analyses of surface phenotypes of cells required for inducing thyroiditis by the adoptive transfer revealed that an appreciable percentage of Lyt-1 dull T cells remained after the treatment of normal lymphoid cells with anti-Lyt-1 plus C. Almost all of these Lyt-1 dull T cells expressed magnitudes of L3T4 or Lyt-2 Ag comparable to those detected on Lyt-1 bright T cells. More important, the induction of thyroiditis was almost completely prevented by either in vitro or in vivo elimination of Lyt-1 dull L3T4+(bright) but not of Lyt-1 dull Lyt-2+(bright) T cells. These results indicate that Lyt-1 dull L3T4+ T cells existing in normal healthy individuals have potential to induce typical thyroiditis which is associated with the production of antithyroglobulin autoantibody, and that the activation and/or function of this T cell subset is regulated by the Lyt-1 bright T cell population coexisting in normal lymphoid cell population.

Abstract
BALB/c mice receiving allogeneic C3H/He or C57BL/6 spleen cells via portal venous (p.v.) route or a single administration of cyclophosphamide (Cy) were capable of rejecting the respective allogeneic C3H/He- or C57BL/6-derived tumor cells. In contrast, the combined treatment of p.v. inoculation with allogeneic lymphocytes and Cy administration abrogated the capability of rejecting allogeneic tumor cells. Such abrogation of alloreactivity was alloantigen-specific and associated with the suppression of potentials to generate delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) and cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) responses to alloantigens. This was further substantiated by the inhibition of molecular mechanisms underlying anti-allo-DTH and -CTL responses. Thus, the above combined treatment led to the decreased production of lymphokines such as macrophage-activating factor (MAF) and interleukin 2 (IL2) following the stimulation with the relevant alloantigens. These results demonstrate that p.v. inoculation of allogeneic cells followed by a single administration of Cy results in the effective elimination of alloreactivity as verified by the suppression of cellular and molecular mechanisms of alloreactive responses.

Abstract
Immunization of DBA/1 mice with type II collagen resulted in typical and progressive arthritis, which is associated with the production of high titer of anti-collagen antibody and the induction of cell-mediated immunity as exemplified by delayed type hypersensitivity response as well as lymphokine production. In contrast, administration of heat-denatured collagen into DBA/1 mice failed to induce the arthritis. These mice produced only marginal antibody, whereas they developed comparable cell-mediated immunity to that induced by immunization with native collagen, and therefore the inoculation of heat-denatured collagen provided the regimen capable of inducing preferentially cell-mediated immunity without the generation of high level of antibody. Inasmuch as administration of antibody induced only marginal and transient joint swelling not associated with typical histologic lesion, the synergistic effect of humoral and cell-mediated immunities was investigated using antibody preparation and the regimen to induce selectively cell-mediated immunity. The results demonstrate that administration of antibody into DBA/1 mice pre-sensitized with heat-denatured collagen resulted in potent and progressive arthritis. Such synergy was further confirmed by the induction of arthritis in T cell-depleted DBA/1 mice that had been adoptively transferred with antibody and lymphoid cells from heat-denatured collagen-sensitized mice. Moreover, it was revealed that the nature of cells capable of transferring cell-mediated immunity was of Thy-1+ and L3T4+ Lyt-2-. These results indicate that anti-collagen antibody and L3T4+ T cell-mediated cellular immunity are crucially required for the perpetuated development of type II collagen-induced arthritis.

Abstract
The tumor antigen capable of inducing tumor resistance (tumor rejection antigen; TRA) was separated and some of its physicochemical properties were characterized. Cytosol and plasma membrane fractions were separated from Rous sarcoma virus (RSV)-induced CSA1M tumor cells. Immunization with membrane but not cytosol fraction of these tumor cells together with complete Freund's adjuvant resulted in complete protection against subsequent challenge with viable CSA1M cells. The TRA activity contained in the membrane fraction was recovered in the sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-solubilized fraction after the SDS-extraction of CSA1M membranes. This CSA1M SDS-solubilized preparation gave protection against syngeneic RSV-induced CSA9F tumor cells as well as the homologous tumor cell type, but failed to induce resistance to RSV-unrelated tumor cells. The membrane or SDS-solubilized fraction from RSV-unrelated tumor cells was unable to generate anti-CSA1M protective immunity. Physicochemical analyses have demonstrated that TRA activity in the SDS-solubilized fraction was completely abolished by treatment with proteinase K but was only marginally affected after treatment with glycosidase mixture. When the SDS-solubilized preparation was applied to a Sephacryl S-300 superfine column, TRA activity was recovered in the range of molecular weight of 50-90 kD. Further fractionation of this TRA-positive fraction by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis revealed that the molecular size of TRA is 56-68 kD. These results indicate that membrane proteins which were isolated from CSA1M tumor cells and have a molecular size of about 60 kD are capable of inducing RSV-induced tumor-specific in vivo protective immunity.

Abstract
BALB/c mice were inoculated with normal C3H/He spleen cells via the portal venous (p.v.) route. Intravenous injection of serum from these BALB/c mice into naive syngeneic mice resulted in almost complete abrogation of their ability to generate anti-C3H/He delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) responses as induced by s.c. immunization with C3H/He cells. Since a portion of the same serum did not inhibit the development of anti-C57BL/6 DTH responses, the suppressive effect of the transferred serum was alloantigen-specific. Such serum factor(s) was produced in normal but not in nude mice and the suppressive activity was transferred in H-2- or immunoglobulin allotype-incompatible combinations. Immunochemical analyses of this serum suppressive factor have revealed that its m.w. was approximately 150,000, corresponding to the size of immunoglobulin (Ig)G, and that the activity was trapped by protein A or by an anti-immunoglobulin column. Although the absorption of the serum from anti-C3H/He-tolerant BALB/c mice with C3H/He target spleen cells did not abrogate the suppressive activity, the additional absorption with spleen cells from anti-C3H/He hyperimmune BALB/c mice almost completely eliminated the suppressive potential. Moreover, pretreatment of BALB/c anti-C3H/He DTH effector spleen cells with the above serum from tolerant mice induced the inhibition of anti-C3H/He DTH responses. Taken together, these results indicate that a single injection of allogeneic cells via the p.v. route results in the production of antibody capable of inhibiting the capacity of DTH effector cells specific for alloantigens used for the p.v. presensitization.
