Abstract:
:Activation of many T-cell functions depends on their interaction with antigen-presenting accessory cells which express I region associated (Ia) products. Cells expressing accessory cell function include those of the monocyte/macrophage lineage and dendritic cells. More recently, B cells and a number of tumour cell lines of macrophage or B-cell origin were shown to act as accessory cells in certain assays. We showed previously that normal peritoneal exudate macrophages (PEC) induced both T-cell proliferation as well as T-cell help, whereas various Ia+ tumour lines of macrophage or B-cell origin, although stimulating antigen-specific T-cell proliferation, did not significantly activate T-cell help. We report here that during the initial T-cell activation in vitro accessory cells (PEC or Ia+ tumour cells) select particular T cells to express previously determined functions. Moreover, some tumour cell lines induce suppressor T cells which inhibit helper activity.
