High-dose irradiated splenic stimulator cells show no endogenous interleukin-2 production but stimulate clonally developing helper T cells to produce interleukin-2.

Abstract:

:The effect of various physical or chemical treatments of splenic stimulator cells on their endogenous, mitogen-inducible IL-2 production and on their ability to induce IL-2 production in clonally developing helper T lymphocytes was investigated. While most methods (T cell depletion by monoclonal antibodies plus complement, glutaraldehyde fixation, heat inactivation and high-dose irradiation) effectively suppressed the endogenous IL-2 production of splenic stimulator cells, only T cell depletion and high-dose (6000-10,000 R) irradiation sustained their stimulatory capacity. High-dose irradiated stimulator cells induced high numbers of clonally developing helper T lymphocytes to secrete IL-2. Moreover, this induction was found to be antigen-specific. Hence, high-dose irradiation is a simple, rapid and reliable method for the treatment of stimulator cells, especially when large numbers of cultures are to be screened.
