| Popis: | Formation of anti-antibodies (anti-Ab) is known to counteract immunotherapy with anti-T cell antibodies. Our previously described immunological approach prevented anti-Ab with the consequence of prolonged survival of fully mismatched skin grafts in C57BL/6 mice. These mice were treated with a single priming injection of a monoclonal anti-T cell Ab followed by repeated injections of anti-T cell mAb differing in species origin from the priming mAb. We now show prolonged tolerance to discordant xenogeneic, to bispecific, and even to polyclonal Ab, and demonstrate that the underlying immunosuppressive principle is due to a difference in heavy chain constant region between first and second antibodies, independent of whether or not they share the same idiotype. To examine this phenomenon, a panel of mAb was generated which share the same mouse anti-Thy-1.2 idiotype, but carry a human IgG1(T23), IgG3(T212C8), or mouse IgG2a(MmT1) constant heavy chain region. We found that sequential injection of MmT1 and T23 according to the above treatment schedule induced huIgG1 isotype-specific tolerance to T23, which was similar to that seen when using a primary mAb (MmT5) that was, instead, fully mismatched with T23 in both idiotype and constant region. Thus, differences of idiotype between primary and booster Ab were inconsequential for their ability to inhibit anti-Ab formation. This novel form of induced specific tolerance to anti-T cell Ig survived graft rejection and was still evident 230 days after termination of the T cell depletion protocol. Taken together, these results demonstrate that rechallenge with Fc region-mismatched Ab opens an immunological window that allows for induction of tolerance to immunogenic anti-T cell Ab and prolonged immunosuppression. |
