Abstract:
:The present report analyzes the suppressor cell system of aged rats in an experimental model of autoimmunity to rat male accessory glands (RAG). A state of specific suppression to RAG was induced when young rats are pretreated with peritoneal cells (PC) obtained from syngeneic young rats i.p. injected 2 h previously with chromatographic fraction I (Sephadex G-100) (FI) of RAG (yFI-PC). Although the yFI-PC injection diminished the DTH in aged rats the autoimmune response remained positive. Peritoneal cells obtained from aged rats injected with FI of RAG (oFI-PC) did not suppress the DTH response in either aged or young rats. In both young and aged, pretreatment with yFI-PC stimulates spleen cells capable of inducing suppression (inductor-phase suppressor cells) when they are transferred to young recipients. However, the spleen inductor-phase suppressor cells of 12-month-old rats are unable to suppress the autoimmune response in their own aged environment. To obtain effective suppression in 12-month-old rats, the injection of yFI-PC was necessary prior to and subsequent to immunization. In this work we observe that 12-month-old rats could efficiently induce inducer phase and effector-phase suppressor cells when the adequate young antigen-presenting cells were present to stimulate them.
