Abstract
The present study describes a novel experimental immunotherapeutic methodology for the reduction of inflammatory synovitis that is noted in an animal model of rheumatoid arthritis. The reduction in inflammation is noted in the animals administered a contra-interleukin-2 (IL-2) cytokine secreted by a cloned T-cell line. The mechanism of reduction of inflammation by this cytokine is through the inhibition of activation and differentiation of T lymphocytes. The cytokine inhibits the in vitro mitogen activation of T-cell lymphocytes as well as antigen-specific activation of a collagen type II specific T-cell line. In addition, decreased levels of messenger RNA coding for interleukin-2 are noted in T lymphocytes and IL-2 activation of the collagen type II specific cell line is inhibited by the contra-IL-2 cytokine. This initial description of a reduction in inflammation by a contra-IL-2 lymphokine suggests that immunoregulatory biologic molecules that are antagonists to IL-2 may be useful for the experimental immunotherapy of cartilage connective tissue pathology.

Abstract
We have investigated the relationship between CD3 expression and the suppressor T-cell function. We have isolated stable clonal cell lines of the F12.23 suppressor T-cell hybridoma that are either CD3+ or CD3-. These lines were subjected to functional assays including inhibition of in vivo hapten-specific delayed-type hypersensitivity responses, in vitro hapten-specific interleukin 2 responses, as well as hapten-specific cytotoxic T-lymphocyte assays. In all assays, the functional suppressor phenotype absolutely correlated with CD3 surface expression. Furthermore, we have immunoprecipitated heterodimeric proteins that share molecular features with some receptor polypeptides previously described. CD3 polypeptides found on the surface of suppressor T cells are phosphorylated after phorbol ester stimulation. Collectively these studies unambiguously define the suppressive supernatant function as a product of CD3+ receptor-bearing T cells.

Abstract
We found an antigen-specific factor capable of augmenting delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) in the culture supernatant of the mixture of immune T cells and specific antigen, or in the serum of mice immunized with xenogeneic erythrocytes and elicited for DTH footpad reaction. Previous experiments on the genetic restriction of this factor (DTH-augmentation factor; DAF) indicated that DAF activity was effective across the MHC-barrier in C3H/He (H-2k)--BALB/c (H-2d) system. The genetic restriction between DAF and its acceptor cells was then investigated precisely using Igh (immunoglobulin heavy chain locus)-congeneic mice: 1) Expression of DAF activity was MHC-nonrestricted, 2) but was restricted by the Igh-linked gene on the 12th chromosome, 3) such Igh-linked gene restriction was also demonstrated by an absorption test with normal spleen cells. The acceptor cells for DAF were Thy-1+,L3T4+,Lyt-2- T cells.

Abstract
Previous studies from our laboratory have shown that a high dose of cryptococcal culture filtrate antigen (CneF) administered intravenously induces a complex suppressor cell cascade which down-regulates the cell-mediated immune response to Cryptococcus neoformans antigens. The primary objective of this investigation was to determine whether a suppressor cell induced by immunization is required for efferent suppression of the cryptococcal delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) response. Our approach to this problem was to immunize CBA/J mice with CneF emulsified in complete Freund adjuvant and then 6 days later to collect spleen cells from the immunized mice and adoptively transfer these cells along with C. neoformans-specific second-order suppressor T cells (Ts2) to naive syngeneic recipients at the time of footpad challenge of the recipients with CneF. To establish which populations of cells in the spleens of immunized mice play a suppressive role, mass cytolysis with specific antibodies and complement was performed before the spleen cells were transferred to naive animals. Since the phenotype of the cells responsible for the transfer of the cryptococcal DTH response had not been completely determined, we first demonstrated that the cells responsible for DTH were L3T4+ Lyt-2- cells. Subsequently, we established that a Thy-1+ L3T4- Lyt-2+ I-J+ cell population induced by immunization was required along with C. neoformans-specific Ts2 cells for efferent suppression of the cryptococcal DTH response. In addition, we demonstrated that the suppressor cells in the immune cell population were derived from cyclophosphamide-sensitive precursors. These data indicate that a third suppressor cell population is required for efferent suppression of the cryptococcal DTH response. As in the azobenzenearsonate and 4-hydroxy-3-nitrophenyl acetyl hapten suppressor models, the Ts2 cells in the circuit mediate their effects through this third suppressor component. Since the mode of induction and the phenotype of the third C. neoformans-specific suppressor cells are similar to those reported for Ts3 cells in other antigen-specific suppression models, we referred to this third suppressor cell in the C. neoformans-specific suppressor cell cascade as a Ts3 cell.

Abstract
In the murine cryptococcal suppressor cell circuit, two different T-cell suppressor factors, TsF1 and TsF2, have been identified which specifically suppress the delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) response to cryptococcal culture filtrate antigen (CneF). TsF1 is produced by a first-order T suppressor (Ts1) cell population and suppresses the afferent limb of the DTH response, whereas TsF2 is produced by a second-order T suppressor (Ts2) cell population and suppresses the efferent limb of the cryptococcal DTH response. The objective of this study was to ascertain whether TsF1 or TsF2 could bind to cryptococcal antigen. To assess this, adsorption of TsF1 and TsF2 was performed with heat-killed Cryptococcus neoformans cells and by solid-phase immunoadsorption (SPIA) on columns containing cryptococcal antigens, i.e., CneF covalently bound to Sepharose 4B. The suppressive effect of TsF1 was removed by adsorption with intact heat-killed cryptococci and by SPIA on CneF-Sepharose 4B. The binding of cryptococcal TsF1 to the cryptococcal SPIA column was shown to be specific since Sepharose 4B columns either coupled with Saccharomyces cerevisiae mannan or blocked with glycine did not adsorb the suppressor activity. In contrast, the suppressive component of TsF2 did not bind to heat-killed cryptococci, CneF-Sepharose 4B, S. cerevisiae mannan-Sepharose 4B, or glycine-Sepharose 4B columns. These results, together with the finding that cryptococcal antigen, anticryptococcal antibody, and C1q-binding immune complexes were not demonstrated in either TsF1 or TsF2, establish that TsF1 and TsF2 can be differentiated on the basis of their affinity for cryptococcal antigen.

Abstract
In both experimental and human myasthenia gravis an impairment in the immune regulation leads to an increased synthesis of antibodies against the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (AcChoR). The present work reports the establishment of an AcChoR-specific suppressive T-cell line obtained by viral transformation of AcChoR-enriched murine T lymphocytes. Enriched T cells from Torpedo AcChoR-primed mice, prestimulated in vitro with antigen, were infected with radiation leukemia viruses and injected intravenously in congeneic recipient mice. Six months later lymphomas were observed in 20% of the injected mice and two of them, of donor origin, were established as permanent continuous cell lines in vitro. One of these lines, named LA41, expresses Thy-1.2, Lyt-2, and I-Jb surface markers. Culture supernatants of LA41 cells suppress the antigen-specific in vitro proliferation of Torpedo AcChoR-primed lymphocytes. This suppression is antigen-specific since the response induced by fetal calf AcChoR and by other antigens is not affected by addition of LA41 culture supernatant in the proliferative assay. LA41 culture supernatant injected in vivo at the time of antigen-priming suppresses also significantly the production of anti-AcChoR antibodies but not the synthesis of antibodies against other antigens--i.e., fetal calf AcChoR or alpha-bungarotoxin. These data show that LA41 cells constitutively produce Torpedo AcChoR-specific suppressor factor.

Abstract
Immunized Ly-1 T cells secrete an antigen-specific molecule that will induce Ly-2+ T cells to express suppressive activity. In two separate systems, factors that suppress the primary anti-sheep erythrocyte (SE) plaque-forming cell response of spleen cells in vitro (Ly-1 TsiF) or the contact sensitivity of azobenzenearsonate (ABA)-TsF1 consist of two macromolecules, one which binds antigen and is IJ-, the other which is I-J+ and does not bind antigen. Both of these chains are required for the factor's biological activity. These factors show a genetic restriction in their ability to induce suppression that is linked to the variable region of the Ig heavy chain gene complex (Igh-V). The I-J+ chain from the ABA-specific TsF1 could replace the I-J+ chain needed by the SE-specific Ly-1 TsiF for biological activity. Mixtures of ABA-binding chain with I-J+ material obtained from the SE-specific Ly-1 TsiF had no effect on the primary anti-SE response in vitro. In mixtures of SE antigen-binding chain from Ly-1 TsiF and I-J+ material from the ABA-specific TsF1, it is the I-J+ molecule that determined the factor's Igh-V restriction. Thus, the antigen-combining site of the factor determined the antigen specificity of this factor but is irrelevant to its Igh-V-linked genetic restrictions. The implications of these results for the idiotype network hypothesis are discussed.

Abstract
In order to determine the mechanism(s) involved in the induction of immunologic tolerance for contact sensitivity via the topical application of a chemical that sensitizes if given with adjuvant, we utilized the hapten dinitrothiocyanobenzene (DNTB). Specific immunologic tolerance to dinitrofluorobenzene (DNFB) was induced in mice by the topical application of DNTB 7 days before sensitization to DNFB. The tolerance could be abrogated if cyclophosphamide (200 mg/kg) was given 3 days before attempted sensitization. Using passive transfer studies we found that DNTB induced hapten-specific Lyt 1+2- suppressor T cells. These suppressor cells prevented the induction of contact sensitivity but did not affect its expression. Lymphocyte proliferation studies, using haptenated epidermal cells as antigen, indicate that lymph node cells obtained 5 days after DNFB sensitization are far less responsive if the mice have received DNTB epicutaneously 7 days before the DNFB. Binding studies demonstrated that DNTB bound to epidermal cells at least as well as did DNFB. It is postulated that DNTB induction of suppressor cells is related to the physicochemical interaction between the hapten and antigen-presenting cells in skin.

Abstract
Thymus cells from neonatal and infant mice were found to have a high capacity to prevent mortality from acute graft-vs.-host disease as compared with spleen cells from stable radiation chimeras. This suppressive capacity of thymocytes decreases with age after birth as was demonstrated by semi-quantitative cell titrations. This suppressor activity is restricted to syngeneity of the graft-vs.-host disease-including cells. The thymic suppressor cells are Thy-1+ and Lyt-1+ and IgG- and IgM-. They do not agglutinate with peanut agglutinin and have a high electrophoretic mobility. In vitro irradiation experiments showed that the suppressor cells are radiation sensitive. These results are compared with the available information on cells suppressing delayed-type hypersensitivity reactions and those suppressing B cell responses.

Abstract
The ability of two cloned T cell hybridomas and their products to specifically suppress the in vitro plaque-forming cell (PFC) response to the 4-hydroxy-3-nitrophenyl acetyl hapten (NP) was studied. Supernatant from one hybridoma (TS1) was shown to suppress in the induction but not the effector phase of the immune response. Supernatant from the TS1 hybridoma was capable of inducing second-order (TS2) effector-phase suppressor cells in vitro but did not suppress the response of anti-I-J plus C-treated responder cells. In contrast, supernatant from a second hybridoma (TS3) was capable of suppressing PFC responses when added either in the induction or the effector phase of the response. TS3 supernatant was unable to induce effector-phase suppressor cells but was capable of suppressing the response of anti-I-J plus C-treated responder cells. In addition, specific suppressor factors isolated from supernatants of the TS1 and TS3 hybridomas were shown to bind to NP, bear NPb idiotypic and I-J-encoded but not immunoglobulin-constant region determinants. The factor secreted by the TS3 hybridoma appears to act directly on B cell targets. Mild reduction of this factor results in two separable moieties, only one of which binds NP. Reconstitution experiments suggest that both chains are required for function. The collective data indicate that these hybridomas represent cells from first- and third-order suppressor T cell populations described previously in contact sensitivity and in vitro PFC systems. The implications of the ability of these hybridoma products to affect both T and B cell-mediated immune responses are discussed.

Abstract
The success of long-term culture of normal human and murine B cells has been hampered by the limited availability of soluble factors capable of maintaining proliferation of activated B lymphocytes. Previous experiments using various culture-derived supernatants in a human system were unable to separate the activities of B cell growth factor (BCGF) and interleukin 2 (IL-2) by immunochemical means. Thus, purified factors with BCGF activity in the absence of IL-2 activity have not been available for study. In the present study, normal human peripheral blood T cells were fused with the hypoxanthine/aminopterin/thymidine-sensitive human T-leukemic cell line, CEM-6. Supernatants from the resulting hybrid cells were tested for the ability to maintain proliferation of normal human B cells in a recently described assay system for human BCGF. Hybrids demonstrating BCGF activity were cloned by limiting dilution. One hybrid clone, 2B11, continued to support proliferation of B cells in both long-term cultures and 6-d assays at a level significantly above that seen with conventionally produced growth factors. No IL-2 activity was found in the supernatant from hybrid 2B11. The hybridoma supernatant was fractionated by gel filtration, and maximum proliferation of B cells was supported by the 18-20,000 mol wt protein fraction. Thus, a human T-T cell hybridoma that has BCGF activity in the absence of any demonstrable IL-2 activity has been developed. Human T-T cell hybridomas secreting discrete immunoregulatory factors should prove to be powerful tools in dissecting the mechanisms of immunoregulation of human lymphocyte function.

Abstract
Human T-cell hybridomas were established by hybridization of concanavalin A-stimulated human peripheral blood lymphocytes with a 6-thioguanine-resistant mutant cell line, designated SH9, derived by irradiation from a cloned human cutaneous T lymphoma line, Hut102-B2. High levels of interferon (IFN) were demonstrated in the supernatants of hybridoma L265 and its subclones. Whereas no IFN was detected in SH9 cell cultures, up to 1,330 units of IFN per ml were produced spontaneously by the hybrids. On induction with 12-omicron-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate, IFN synthesis in hybridoma cultures was enhanced 8- to 16-fold. Neutralization with specific antisera and determination of antiviral activities in human and bovine cells showed that the IFN secreted by the hybridomas was immune IFN (IFN-gamma). Analysis of DNA content, karyotype, and cell surface phenotype, including T cell specific antigens and receptors, confirmed the T cell hybrid nature of L265 clones. No correlation was found in the hybridomas between IFN production and the expression of HTLV, a retrovirus released by Hut102-B2 and SH9 cells.

Abstract
The genetic restrictions of the activation of third-order suppressor cells (Ts3) were studied in mice, using two different types of anti-azobenzenearsonate (ABA)-immune responses, namely delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) and cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) generation. Ts2 cells were induced in several different strains of mice by injecting monoclonal T hybridoma molecules or first-order suppressor factors (TsF1) originating in A/J (H-2a, Igh-1e) mice and then testing the TsF2 molecules derived from these Ts2 in A/J and A.By (H-2b, Igh-1e) or (A/J X A.By)F1 (H-2a/b, Igh-1e) and (C57Bl/6 X A/J)F1 (H-2b/a, Igh-1e) mice. It was shown that the activity of TsF2 was restricted to the I-J of the strain in which Ts2 was induced. By genetic analysis, restriction was shown to be due to the requirement of H-2 identity between ABA-coupled cells used for Ts3 activation and the strain of the TsF2 origin. Moreover, by using H-2-congenic ABA-coupled cells, we were also able to precisely map and demonstrate that ABA-coupled cells I-J identical to TsF2 induced in various strains were necessary for effective suppression to occur. This selective activation of Ts3 suggested the existence of I-J-related antigen presentation for suppression as the counterpart of I-A or I-A-I-E-restricted antigen presentation for positive immune responses.
