Abstract
Suppressor T cells were generated in (CBA X C57BL)F1 mice undergoing graft-vs.-host (GvH) reaction and treated with anti-Ly and anti-Ia antisera to determine their membrane antigen phenotype. Pretreatment of CBA-induced GvH suppressor T cells with anti-Ly-1.1, anti-Ly-2.1 or anti-Iak antisera plus complement abrogated their suppressive properties when tested against primed F1 spleen cells in vitro. In contrast, concanavalin A (Con A)-induced suppressor T cells were insensitive to anti-Ly-1.1 serum. It is concluded that GvH-induced suppressor T cells are Ly-1+,2+,3+,Ia+, and thus distinct from Con A or antigen-induced suppressor T cells.Entities:
