CD4 help-independent induction of cytotoxic CD8 cells to allogeneic P815 tumor cells is absolutely dependent on costimulation.
Mice made transgenic (Tg) for a rat anti-mouse CD4 Ab (GK mice) represent a novel CD4-deficient model. They not only lack canonical CD4 cells in the periphery, but also lack the residual aberrant Th cells that are found in CD4-/- mice and MHC class II-/- mice. To analyze the role of CD4 help and costimulation for CTL induction against alloantigens, we have assessed the surface and functional phenotype of CD8 cells in vivo (e.g., clearance of allogeneic P815 cells) and in vitro. In our CD4-deficient GK mice, CTL responses to allogeneic P815 cells were induced, albeit delayed, and were sufficient to eliminate P815 cells. Induction of CTL and elimination of allogeneic P815 cells were inhibited both in the presence and absence of CD4 cells by temporary CD40 ligand blockade. This indicated that direct interaction of CD40/CD40L between APCs and CD8 cells may be an accessory signal in CTL induction (as well as the indirect pathway via APC/CD4 interaction). Furthermore, whereas in CTLA4Ig single Tg mice P815 cells were rejected promptly, in the double Tg GK/CTLA4Ig mice CTL were not induced and allogeneic P815 cells were not rejected. These findings suggest that CD40/CD40L is involved in both CD4-dependent and CD4-independent pathways, and that B7/CD28 is pivotal in the CD4-independent pathway of CTL induction against allogeneic P815 cells.Y Zhan, A J Corbett, J L Brady, R M Sutherland, A M Lew

Direct recognition of rat MHC antigens on rat antigen-presenting cells by mouse CD4+ and CD8+ T cells and establishment of T cell clones exhibiting a direct recognition pathway.
Alloantigens are recognized by T cells either through a direct pathway, which involves recognition of alloantigens expressed on allogeneic antigen-presenting cells (APC), or through an indirect pathway, which involves recognition of processed alloantigens presented by self APC. We investigated whether rat xenoantigens are also recognized by direct (xenogeneic APC-restricted) and/or indirect (self APC-restricted) pathways. C57BL/6 (B6) mouse anti-F344 or WKAH rat mixed lymphocyte reactions (MLRs) were partially inhibited by addition of either anti-mouse CD4 or CD8 monoclonal antibody (mAb) and almost completely blocked in the presence of both mAbs. These xenogeneic MLRs were almost completely inhibited by simultaneous depletion of both self and xeno APCs and only partially suppressed by the elimination of either type of APC, indicating that freshly prepared splenic mouse T cells can recognize rat xenoantigens through both direct and indirect pathways. Anti-F334 T cell lines were generated from B6 anti-F344 MLR cultures, and four CD4+ and four CD8+ T cell clones were isolated from these parental lines. The parental lines and those derived T cell clones were tested for their ability to proliferate depending on the presence of F344 APC. Proliferation of CD8 clones by stimulation with F344 APC was inhibited by the addition of anti-rat class I MHC mAb but not of anti-class II MHC mAbs. Conversely, proliferation of CD4 clones was reduced by addition of anti-class II MHC mAbs. Thus, these results indicate that xeno (rat)-reactive mouse T cells recognize xenoantigens via both indirect (self APC-restricted) and direct (xeno APC-restricted) pathways and that both CD4 and CD8 subsets of T cells participate in a direct pathway of xenoantigen recognition.T Hirota, H Hirose, H Iwata, K Kanetake, S Murakawa, E Sasaki, H Takagi, M Bando, T Hamaoka, H Fujiwara
