Abstract:
:By immunizing Lewis rats with myelin basic protein (MBP) peptide variants derived from the major encephalitogenic epitope of guinea pig (MBP(68-88) and then isolating encephalitogenic T cells from these animals, we demonstrated that the variant peptides do not elicit the same encephalitogenic T cell subsets as those induced by the wild-type peptide or by intact MBP. Rather, the pathogenic T cells differed in clonal composition as reflected by their heterogeneous responses to a panel of variant peptides and by their T cell receptor usage. Thus, molecules mimicking the MBP(68-88) autoantigen can elicit pathogenic T cell subsets without necessarily cross-reacting with T cells specific for the original autoantigen. This suggests that a more clonally diverse group of pathogenic T cells might be involved in EAE than has been apparent from studies with intact MBP or its unaltered peptides.
