Abstract
We have investigated antigen-independent modulation of immune responses by monoclonal antibodies directed against both viral and nonviral antigens. BALB/c mice were immunized with monoclonal IgM (i.e. Ab1) specific for either Moloney murine leukemia virus-induced cell surface antigen (MCSA) or the hapten 2,4-dinitrophenyl (DNP). Injection with either Ab1 activated a functional idiotypic (Id) network as evidenced by production of both anti-Id (Ab2) antibodies and anti-anti-Id (Ab3) antibodies. A subset of induced Ab3 (designated Ab1'), exhibited specificity for antigen (virus or DNP). In mice immunized with anti-Id antibodies (Ab2), production of Ab3 and Ab1' was also observed. In the MCSA system, antibody-induced Ab1' responses were effective in protecting mice from tumor development upon subsequent challenge with live virus. Furthermore, antigen-independent modulation of immunity to both viral and nonviral antigens was found to be thymus-dependent. Similar findings in other viral systems suggest that antibody-induced activation of Id networks may prove a viable alternative vaccine strategy that can elicit antigen-specific responses, and in some cases protection, in the apparent absence of exposure to antigen.

Abstract
The capacity of retinoids to amplify the proliferative response of BALB/c lymphocytes to concanavalin A (Con A)2 in the presence of exogenous interleukin-2 (IL-2) and the induction of IL-2 receptors (IL-2R) on L3T4+ and Lyt-2+ T-cells was evaluated. Preincubation with Con A for 8 h in the presence of retinoids resulted in a greater than two-fold increase in spleen cell proliferative response to Con A plus rIL-2 over the following 72 h relative to the response of cells preincubated with Con A alone. Peak potentiation of IL-2 responses occurred over a pharmacologic range of retinoic acid (RA) concentration (10(-10)-10(-8) M) in the presence of 20 U/ml rIL-2. This potentiation of the response to IL-2 was likewise observed after 8 h prestimulation with Con A with splenic T-cells enriched by passage over nylon wool. Preincubation of the spleen cells with Con A plus RA without the subsequent addition of IL-2 resulted in a proliferative response that was potentiated nearly to the level of the response produced by subsequent addition of IL-2 to Con A-activated cells. Preincubation of the cells with Con A in the presence of RA produced a true synergy with IL-2; the resulting increase in response was greater than the sum of the increases produced by RA or IL-2 alone.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
We evaluated the capacity of retinoids to potentiate proliferative responses of murine T-cells to recombinant human interleukin 2 (rIL-2). Concanavalin A (Con A) prestimulated spleen cells responded in a dose-dependent manner to added rIL-2. All-trans-retinoic acid (RA) at 10(-8) M potentiated the proliferative response by fivefold at saturating levels of IL-2. In similar experiments, two closely related retinamides, all-trans-(phenyl)retinamide (PR) and N-(4-hydroxyphenyl)retinamide (4-HPR), also potentiated murine splenocyte rIL-2 responses. Potentiation of IL-2-induced proliferation was dose-responsive to the concentration of added retinoid with peak potentiation occurring at 10(-10) - 10(-8) M in the presence of 10 U/ml rIL-2. Significant potentiation was observed at retinoid concentrations as low as 10(-14) M. Fluorescence flow cytometry of the responding cells revealed that among L3T4+, Lyt-2+ or total T-cells, at 72 h following Con A stimulation, essentially all of the cells expressed IL-2 receptors (IL-2R). This apparently represents near maximum IL-2R expression and treatment of the cells with retinoids did not increase IL-2R expression at that time point. The potentiation of IL-2 responses by retinoids was also observed with IL-2-dependent HT-2 cells, 98% of which were IL-2R positive. HT-2 proliferative responses to rIL-2 were potentiated as much as fourfold by 10(-10) M RA. HT-2 proliferative responses to rIL-2 were potentiated by all three retinoids dose dependently. Significant potentiation was observed with as little as 10(-14) M retinoid. Retinoids in the absence of IL-2 induced no proliferative responses. These data suggest that retinoids can augment the capacity of IL-2 to induce T-cell proliferation using Con A-activated murine splenic T-cell blasts and a long-term-cultured T-cell line.

Abstract
Fc receptors for IgG (CD16) have been described as the only type of immunoglobulin receptor on large granular lymphocytes (LGL). However, the ability of natural killer (NK) cells to mediate antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) in the presence of monoclonal or polyclonal IgM and the inhibition of NK activity by highly purified IgM could not be explained on the basis of FcR for IgG. In order to directly assess the expression of Fc receptors for IgM (Fc mu R), NK cells were treated with human polyclonal IgM, and its binding was visualized by a direct anti-globulin rosette assay with identification of rosette-forming LGL on Giemsa-stained smears. The data indicated that a high proportion of LGL (up to 68%) were Fc mu R-positive cells. However, this percentage varied depending on the IgM preparation (polyclonal or monoclonal), the indicator reagent used for the rosette assays, and the cell preparations studied. Two-color flow cytometry of human nonadherent lymphocyte preparations confirmed the presence of CD56+IgM+ cells, which represented from 43 to 78% of CD56+ cells. Flow cytometry was also performed using highly enriched preparations of human NK cells (the mean percentage of CD3-CD56+ cells was 84%). Up to 88% of purified NK cells bound FITC-labeled monoclonal IgM at a saturating concentration. By indirect immunofluorescence, from 34 to 62% of NK cells purified from the peripheral blood of normal donors were able to bind polyclonal IgM. Similar results were obtained with LGL from a patient with NK lymphoproliferative disease. Thus the presence of Fc mu R on a majority of human NK cells was demonstrated by different techniques, using unseparated peripheral blood mononuclear leukocytes, purified normal NK cells, and also LGL from a patient with NK lymphoproliferative disease.

Abstract
The effects of acetaldehyde in vitro on the lytic capacity of murine spleen cells have been evaluated in three systems: antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC), natural killer (NK) activity, and alloimmune cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) activity. Acetaldehyde had a biphasic effect on ADCC. Concentrations less than 1 mM acetaldehyde potentiated ADCC. Concentrations greater than 1 mM produced a progressive decrease in lysis. The inhibitory effects were at the effector cell level and were partially irreversible. Preincubation experiments showed that inhibition of ADCC was both concentration and time-dependent. Preincubation of the spleen cells for short periods of time produced potentiated lysis by concentrations of acetaldehyde up to 10 mM. However, potentiation of lysis in preincubation and short term (4h) lytic assay experiments was more variable than longer term (18h) experiments in which the acetaldehyde was not removed by washing. NK activity and alloimmune CTL-mediated lysis were also inhibited by acetaldehyde. Concentrations of acetaldehyde up to 20 mM did not significantly decrease lymphocyte viability as determined by trypan blue exclusion. Acetaldehyde was lost from the reaction mixtures by first order kinetics with a rate constant of 0.5/hr. Thus, the final concentrations were 64-99.99% lower than the starting amounts.

Abstract
Pretreatment of effector cells with normal human IgM induced strong dose-dependent inhibition of NK activity. The degree of inhibition by normal IgM was stronger than that induced by monomeric IgG, which has previously been reported to be a negative regulator of NK activity. For 100% inhibition, 1.1 x 10(-6) M of IgM was required, whereas 66.6 x 10(-6) M of IgG was needed to abolish NK activity. This inhibitory property of polyclonal IgM appeared to be localized in the Fc region of the molecule, and also was significantly reduced upon mild reduction of disulfide bonds. Monoclonal IgM purified from sera of five patients with Waldenström's macroglobulinemia and tested in parallel with normal IgM lacked or had a decreased capacity to inhibit the cytotoxic reaction. As with IgG, IgM interfered mainly with the lytic event, after binding of effector cells to target cells. The inhibition by IgM appeared to be a direct effect on NK cells, since similar effects were observed with purified large granular lymphocytes as with non-adherent lymphocytes. These results indicate a new mechanism for negative regulation of NK cells and suggest the presence of Fcmu receptors on these effector cells.

Abstract
The development and isotype distribution of Moloney murine leukemia virus (M-MuLV)-specific serum antibodies following primary inoculation with Moloney murine sarcoma/leukemia virus (M-MuSV/M-MuLV) in adult BALB/c mice have been investigated using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The primary antibody responses to M-MuSV/M-MuLV consisted of the IgM, IgG2a, IgG2b, and IgG3 isotypes; no M-MuLV-specific serum IgG1 or IgA antibodies were detected. The detectable antibody response was biphasic, with an early peak of virus-specific titers seen between 10 and 15 days after inoculation and a second peak seen in regressor sera. Pooled regressor sera contained IgM, IgG2a, and IgG2b antibodies which bound to M-MuLV-expressing lymphoma cells. Immunoelectron microscopy with regressor sera showed IgG bound both to infected cell surfaces and to mature viral particles, while IgM bound only to infected cell surfaces. These findings were supported by immunoprecipitation analyses which demonstrated binding of the M-MuLV-specific antibodies to both virion-associated and cell-associated antigens encoded by the gag and env genes.

Abstract
Sprague-Dawley rats were dosed by gavage daily for 28 days with 5, 15, or 50 mg/kg of N-(all-trans-retinoyl)-DL-leucine (RL), N-(all-trans-retinoyl)glycine (RG), or all-trans-retinoic acid (RA). On the basis of mortality incidence, fracture incidence, body weight, and histopathologic effects, RG was slightly to moderately less toxic than RA, and RL was significantly less toxic than RA or RG. Doses that had no effect on weight loss and produced no bone fractures were approximately 5 and 15 mg/kg/day for RA administered to males or females, respectively; greater than 15 mg/kg/day for RG administered to males or females; and greater than 50 mg/kg/day for RL administered to males or females. At these doses, RA and RG produced effects, detectable at the microscopic level, of lymphoid hyperplasia and hematopoietic cell proliferation in the spleen, lymphoid hyperplasia in lymph nodes, necrosis of the cortex of the thymus, hypertrophy of the zona fasciculata of the adrenal, a periportal pattern of cytoplasmic vacuolization in hepatocytes, hematopoietic cell proliferation in the liver, epithelial hyperplasia and subacute inflammation in the forestomach, and osteodystrophy. Serological alterations consisted of reduced serum albumin levels and elevated levels of triglycerides and alkaline phosphatase. For RL, similar microscopic effects, dependent on dose level and sex, were observed in spleen, thymus, adrenal, and liver. In vitro, RL was as active as RA in potentiating pokeweed mitogen-induced lymphocyte proliferation; RG was inactive. This study indicates that, relative to RA and RG, RL has less toxicity but similar immunological effects. Since RL and RG expressed little or no binding affinity for cellular RA-binding protein, the immunological effects of these retinoids may be expressed by mechanisms not linked to this protein.

Abstract
The effects of three retinoids: all-trans-retinoic acid (RA), 13-cis-retinoic acid (13-cis-RA), and N-(4-hydroxyphenyl)retinamide (4-HPR) on murine splenic lymphocyte proliferative responses to mitogens were evaluated. The responses to T-cell mitogens, PHA and Con A, and a T-cell-dependent B-cell mitogen, PWM were significantly potentiated by these retinoids. However proliferative responses to a B-cell mitogen, Escherichia coli LPS were unaffected or inhibited. All three retinoids at concentrations ranging from 10(-6) to 10(-15) M significantly potentiated Con A-induced proliferative responses. In response to PWM, 10(-13) M RA, 10(-12) M 13-cis RA, and 10(-11) M 4-HPR were the lowest concentrations producing significant potentiation. Endpoint concentrations of retinoids significantly potentiating responses to PHA were; 10(-9) M RA, 10(-8) M 13-cis RA, and 10(-6) M 4-HPR. These responses were independent of retinol contained in fetal calf serum supplemented medium since responses were reproduced in serum-free medium devoid of retinol. Optimal potentiation by retinoids of responses to these T-cell-dependent mitogens were found at superoptimal concentrations of mitogen suggesting a selective inhibition of T-suppressor cells. Thus, potentiation of T-cell-dependent mitogen responses provides the most sensitive biological assay yet described for detection of retinoid activity and is a reproducible system to explore the cellular and molecular mechanisms of retinoid-mediated immunopotentiation.

Abstract
The effects of ethanol on murine spleen cell-mediated lysis have been studied. Concentrations of 5.5-176 mM ethanol produced progressive inhibition of antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC). Binding of spleen cells to antibody-sensitized target cells was not inhibited by comparable concentrations of ethanol. Kinetic analysis revealed decreased rates of lysis with increasing concentrations of ethanol. Changes of effector to target cell ratios revealed an inhibition of maximum lysis and decreased lytic efficiency in the presence of 88 mM ethanol. Preincubation experiments showed the inhibitory effect of ethanol to be reversible. Macrophage-depleted spleen cells appeared to be as susceptible to inhibition by ethanol as unfractionated spleen cells. Ethanol also inhibited natural killer and alloimmune cytotoxic T cell activity. The ADCC data were analysed by using a mathematical model which incorporates the kinetics of lysis, dose-response relationships, heterogeneity of the lytic effectors, reversibility of inhibition and ethanol loss during incubation. An inhibition constant (KI) of 373 mM-2 when two ethanol molecules interact with the site of inhibition was calculated. 50% inhibition of lysis is produced by 52 mM (0.24%) ethanol. The results are consistent with a model which assumes that lysis is due to a critical number of interactions which ultimately trigger the lytic event. Alcohol interferes with lysis by reacting with sites which are required for triggering the lytic event. Although the molecular details of the mechanism of inhibition are as yet undefined, we infer that ethanol inhibits ADCC at the programming for lysis or the lethal hit stages.

Abstract
Mixed rosette studies were performed to evaluate the coexpression of IgG Fc. IgM Fc, and complement receptors (C3R) by thymocytes obtained from mice 7 days after cortisone injection and by spleen cells. Indicator cells coated with IgM, IgG, or C3 independently were mixed and could be distinguished by morphology or by a fluorescein label. In double-marker studies, 36% of spleen cells formed rosettes with IgG- and/or IgM-sensitized red blood cells. Among this population there was a 24% overlap of cells binding IgM and IgG complexes simultaneously. Of the spleen cells, 78% bound IgM- and/or C3-sensitized cells. Of the spleen cells forming rosettes with IgM and C3 indicator cells, 15% coexpressed these receptors. With IgG and C3 indicator cells, 58% of spleen cells bound to one or both kinds of complexes with an 18% overlap. Of cortisone-resistant thymocytes, 14% formed rosettes with IgM- and/or IgG-sensitized red blood cells; within this population there was an overlap of 21%. With IgM- or C3-sensitized cells, 19% of cortisone-resistant thymocytes bound to one or both, among which there was a coexpression of 21%. With IgG- or C3-sensitized cells, there was a 14% overlap of rosette-forming cells binding both. In triple-marker studies 79% of spleen cells formed rosettes with C3-, IgG-, and/or IgM-sensitized indicator cells, out of which 11% coexpressed IgM and IgG FcR, 20% coexpressed IgG and C3R, and 10% coexpressed IgM FcR and C3R. Of rosette-forming cells, 13% coexpressed all three receptors. With cortisone-resistant thymocytes, 19% bound one or more kinds of immune complexes. Among these, 9% coexpressed IgG FcR and C3R, 14% coexpressed IgM FcR and C3R, and 14% bound IgG and IgM complexes. We could not detect the simultaneous expression of all three receptors on cortisone-resistant thymocytes. Using Isopaque-Ficoll fractionation of cells binding C3-sensitized cells, cortisone-resistant thymocytes were enriched and depleted of C3-receptor-bearing cells and their Lyt phenotypes were determined by immunofluorescence microscopy. The C3-receptor-enriched population contained 56% C3R+ cells which were 79% Lyt-1 positive and 100% Lyt-2 positive. The C3R-depleted population contained 1.3% C3R+ cells with 10% Lyt-1 positive and 22% Lyt-2 positive among the total. Surface phenotypic expression of normal and cortisone-resistant thymocytes was also evaluated by direct and indirect fluorescence by fluorescence-activated cell sorter (FACS).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Abstract
The ability of sheep leukocytes to mediate antibody — dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) and that of sheep serum IgG1 and IgG2 to induce ADCC were investigated. Partial characterization of effector cells was attempted. These investigations revealed that ADCC occurs in sneep. With chicken erythrocytes (CRBC) as the target cells, polymorphonu-cleated cells (PMN), and monocytes, were the most effective leukocytes. Ovine peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) also mediated ADCC, and within the PBL population, T-cells were capable of mediating ADCC. The T-cells were obtained by nylon wool fractionation and selective agglutination by peanut agglutinin (PNA) and Helix pomatia agglutinin (HPA). Both nylon wool adherent and non-adherent fractions were active in ADCC, although the former were more active, implying heterogeneity in nylon wool adherence among ovine K-cells. Depletion of B (SIg+) cells did not affect ADCC activity of the remaining cells. Depletion of Fc+ cells markedly reduced cytotoxic activity of PBL. Both sheep IgG1 and IgG2 anti-CRBC immunoglobulins were able to induce ADCC.

Abstract
Murine peritoneal macrophages, parabiotically co-cultured with combinations of in vitro H-2 sensitized thymus-derived lymphocytes obtained from drug-pretreated mice, possessed an increased cytotoxicity against alloantibody-coated target cells. This heightened activity appeared to be accentuated by and dependent on T-cell synergy. After 5 days of in vitro allosensitization at 37 degrees C, cortisone-resistant thymocytes allosensitized in combination with cyclophosphamide-pretreated splenic T cells released molecules that produced strong antibody-dependent macrophage-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC). This enhanced ADCC correlated with increased macrophage rosetting with IgG-sensitized erythrocytes. These heightened activities resulted from soluble mediators released by the activated T cells which diffused across a 0.22-microns Millipore filter and were not dependent on lymphocyte-macrophage contact. Evidence that these molecules originated from the highly enriched T-cell populations and were not synthesized de novo by macrophages was supported by results of pretreatment with protein and RNA synthesis inhibitors. Evidence that soluble Fc receptors released from the alloactivated T cells were responsible for the increased macrophage EA binding and ADCC was obtained in affinity chromatography experiments in which activity could be depleted by passage over a Sepharose-Fc-coupled column and recovered in the column eluate.

Abstract
The presence on human monocytes of surface receptors binding IgM molecules (Fc mu receptors) and the role of IgM antibodies in monocytic effector functions were investigated. IgM antibodies were first purified by one passage through anti-Fc gamma immunosorbent. Rosette techniques in which either the indicator erythrocytes or the monocytes had been pretreated with IgM antibodies did not reveal the presence of Fc mu receptors on monocytes. Phagocytosis and cytolysis of bovine erythrocytes were, however, regularly observed in the presence of high concentrations of one IgM preparation. Inhibition experiments with human IgG or IgM indicated that the phagocytic and cytolytic effects obtained with this IgM preparation were due to contaminating IgG antibodies. This was confirmed by further immunosorbent purification of the IgM antibody preparation. Lymphocytes carrying Fc micro receptors did not transmit any effector cell activity to co-cultivated autologous monocytes as a result of interaction with IgM. It was concluded that IgM does not mediate antibody-dependent target cell destruction by human monocytes that seem to lack Fc micro receptors.

Abstract
IgM antibodies, by themselves unable to induce human K-cell-mediated cytotoxicity, enhanced the lysis of TNP-coated bovine erythrocytes (TNP-Eb) induced by suboptimal concentrations of IgG antibodies. The antibodies used were directed against either TNP or intrinsic Eb antigens. The best enhancement of antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) was obtained when IgG and IgM antibodies had different specificities. IgM antibodies with specificity similar to that of the IgG antibodies often inhibited rather than enhanced cytolysis. By using 125I-labelled anti-DNP IgG, the number of IgG/TNP-Eb was determined. Under the present conditions, at least 9000 IgG molecules/TNP-Eb were required for K-cell-mediated lysis in the absence of IgM. In the presence of IgM antibody concentrations optimal for enhancement of ADCC, the minimal number of IgG molecules required for induction of ADCC was 30-100 times lower. No enhancement of cytotoxicity was seen with more than the optimal concentration of IgM even when IgG binding to the target cells was not reduced by IgM. This suggested that induction of ADCC was dependent on contiguous IgG-Fc receptor interactions, which were inhibited owing to steric hindrance by excessive amounts of IgM in the critical contact areas between effector cells and target cells.

Abstract
Natural killer cells are a recently discovered subpopulation of lymphoid cells that are present in most normal individuals of a range of mammalian and avian species. Natural killer cells have spontaneous cytolytic activity against a variety of tumor cells and some normal cells, and their reactivity can be rapidly augmented by interferon. They have characteristics distinct from other types of lymphoid cells and are closely associated with large granular lymphocytes, which comprise about 5 percent of blood or splenic leukocytes. There is increasing evidence that natural killer cells, with the ability to mediate natural resistance against tumors in vivo, certain virus and other microbial diseases, and bone marrow transplants, may play an important role in immune surveillance.

Abstract
Murine spleen cells were analysed for their capacity to lyse 51Cr-labelled antibody-sensitized erythrocytes and a human lymphoma cell line. Incubation of spleen cells with iron powder followed by removal of iron-containing cells with a magnet significantly decreased the lytic capacity of the remaining cells against erythrocyte target cells. However, substantial cytotoxicity remained in the relatively phagocyte-depleted population. Both antibody-sensitized erythrocytes and tumour cells were lysed by phagocyte-depleted effector cells. However, more spleen cells were required to lyse nucleated target cells than were required to produce comparable lysis of the erythrocytes. Such phagocyte-depleted spleen cells were subsequently treated with three different antisera containing specificities for thymus-dependent antigens and a monoclonal IgM anti-Thy 1.2 in the presence of complement. The remaining viable cells were recovered and tested as effector cells. All four reagents in the presence of complement caused an inhibition of antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) that was proportional to the percentage of T cells eliminated. However, the antisera also inhibited ADCC in the absence of complement, even when the cells were trypsinized following the antiserum treatment to remove attached antibodies. On the other hand, treatment of spleen cells with the monoclonal IgM anti-Thy 1.2 followed by trypsin treatment did not inhibit ADCC unless complement was added. Thus, with the latter reagent, decreased ADCC could be ascribed to elimination of T cells and not immune complex inhibition. Cells bearing Thy 1.2 accounted for approximately half of the lytic activity of phagocyte-depleted spleen cells against antibody-sensitized target cells.

Abstract
IgM antibodies have previously been reported to either inhibit or induce antibody-dependent lymphocyte cytotoxicity (ADCC). Here we show that human lymphocytes lyse bovine erythrocytes (Eb) in the presence of either IgM of IgG anti-Eb from rabbits. Seven out of 20 IgM preparations (Sephadex G-200) were ADCC-active. IgG-dependent ADCC was inhibited by human IgG but not by IgM. In contrast, IgM ADCC was inhibited by both IgG and IgM. The effector cells in IgM ADCC were a subpopulation of lymphocytes with distinct Fc receptors for both IgG and IgM. Most of them also had sheep erythrocyte receptors. Extensive purification of the ADCC-active IgM antibody preparations indicated that very small amounts of contaminating IgG anti-Eb were responsible for ADCC induction. When purified and ADCC-inactive IgM antibodies were mixed with suboptimal concentrations of IgG antibodies, a strong enhancement of ADCC was found. To achieve enhancement, the two antibody isotypes had to be present on the surface of the same target cells, and the IgM effect was not due to the release of soluble ADCC-enhancing factors. Thus, in this system, IgM antibodies are not capable of inducing ADCC on their own. However, they enhance ADCC by improving the contactual interaction between target cells and a special subset of effector cells.

Abstract
We have found that Mg++ supports IgM complex binding to mouse lymphocytes but not to macrophages. In contrast, Ca++ supports IgM complex binding to macrophages but not lymphocytes. IgG complex binding to both lymphocytes and macrophages is divalent cation independent. These findings allow one to distinguish IgG from IgM binding and macrophage from lymphocyte IgM complex binding by their differential divalent cation requirements.

Abstract
Antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity and direct cytotoxicity assays were performed with equine infectious anemia virus-infected target cells, equine leukocytes, and equine anti-equine infectious anemia virus antibody to determine whether these mechanisms play a role in controlling viral replication in equine infectious anemia. Direct cytotoxicity was observed by using peripheral blood mononuclear cells from 7 of 10 infected horses. Antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity was not observed. The antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity reaction in horses was then studied by using sheep erythrocytes and trinitrophenylated sheep erythrocytes as target cells. Lysis of these target cells was mediated by neutrophils, monocytes, and lymphocytes. The reaction was activated by antibody of the immunoglobulin G class but not by immunoglobulin G(T). Furthermore, immunoglobulin G(T) efficiently inhibited immunoglobulin G in this function.

Abstract
Human lymphocyte populations comprising T cells, T depleted lymphocytes, and T cells enriched for, or depleted of, IgG Fc receptor-bearing (TG) cells, were separated using rosette techniques. All lymphocytes were assessed for the ability to lyse antibody-coated chicken erythrocytes and SL2 mouse lymphoma cells. Their activity was compared with that of monocytes and neutrophil-enriched preparations. IgG Fc receptor positive cells within the T population were highly active in both cytotoxicity assays; the activity could not be ascribed to contamination by monocytes or neutrophils. The TG cells forming junctions with the target cells possessed a characteristic ultrastructure.

Abstract
The development of methods for the production of intact Cμ3 and Cμ4 domains of IgM have made possible the assessment of some of their structural and biological functions. Antiserum against Fcμ fragment detected both domains and illustrated their complete antigenic non-identity. Circular dichroism spectroscopy and the retention of antigenicity indicated that both domains had retained most of their native structure. No interaction of the type Cμ3—Cμ3, Cμ4—Cμ4 or Cμ3—Cμ4 could be detected under non-dissociating conditions by analytical ultracentrifugation or molecular exclusion chromatography experiments. These results lead us to believe that the transmission of effector messages between the Fab and Fc parts of IgM takes place through structural changes at the quaternary level. C[unk]1-fixation experiments with IgM and several of its fragments and domains show that (a) the Cμ4 domain contains the C[unk]1-fixing site; (b) the high C[unk]1-fixing capacity of IgM or Fc5μ cannot be explained on the basis of a simple accumulative model of complement fixing domains; (c) the C[unk]1-fixing site is independent of the native structure of the Cμ4 domain; (d) the C[unk]1-fixing site does not contain carbohydrate. Examination of the IgM receptor on the surface of human T lymphocytes show that (a) Cμ4 domain is primarily responsible for the reaction and Cμ3 domain has very little affinity; (b) native structure is essential for the reaction because reduction and alkylation of the Cμ4 domain destroyed both its original conformation and affinity for this receptor; (c) IgM and Fc5μ had a much greater affinity for the receptor than monomeric subunits: (d) carbohydrate on Cμ4 domain is not involved in the affinity reaction.

Abstract
Peripheral human T cells, isolated by sheep erythrocyte-rosette formation and density centrifugation, were highly cytotoxic to both Ab-coated autologous lymphocytes and antibody (Ab)-coated chicken erythrocytes when stimulated in mixed lymphocyte culture, but were not lytic when freshly purified, or when unstimulated in 6-day culture. Allosensitized T cells were shown to effect this activity by a specific effector-target cell interaction dependent on Ab, as indicated by: (a) induction of killing by Ab to target cells not lysed in the absence of Ab. (b) inhibition of Ab-dependent killing by aggregated Ig. The mechanism by which allosensitized T cells effect antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity is discussed.

Abstract
Subpopulations of thymus-derived T lymphocytes bearing receptors for either IgM or IgG molecules were isolated from human peripheral blood. Those with receptors for IgM (T.M) provided help in a cell dose-dependent fashion for the pokeweed mitogen-induced differentiation of B lymphocytes in vitro, whereas cells with receptors for IgG (T.G) did not. T.G cells, on the hand, efficiently suppressed the differentiation and proliferation of B cells in the pokeweed system in the presence of helper T.M cells. This suppressive activity of T.G cells required prior interaction of the T.G cells with immune complexes. The helper activity of T.M cells was relatively radioresistant while the suppressor activity of T.G cells was radiosensitive. The results indicate that helper and suppressor functions of human T lymphocytes in this model system are mediated by different subpopulations of T cells which can be distinguished by their ability to bind IgM or IgG immune complexes, respectively.
