Popis: | We have recently described a mAb, KP15, directed against the MHC-I/peptide molecular complex consisting of H-2Dd and a decamer peptide corresponding to residues 311–320 of the HIV IIIB envelope glycoprotein gp160. When administered at the time of primary immunization with a vaccinia virus vector encoding gp160, the mAb blocks the subsequent appearance of CD8+ CTL with specificity for the immunodominant Ag, P18-I10, presented by H-2Dd. This inhibition is specific for this particular peptide Ag; another H-2Dd-restricted gp160 encoded epitope from a different HIV strain is not affected, and an H-2Ld-restricted epitope encoded by the viral vector is also not affected. Using functional assays and specific immunofluorescent staining with multivalent, labeled H-2Dd/P18-I10 complexes (tetramers), we have enumerated the effects of blocking of priming on the subsequent appearance, avidity, and TCR Vβ usage of Ag-specific CTL. Ab blocking skews the proportion of high avidity cells emerging from immunization. Surprisingly, Vβ7-bearing Ag-specific TCR are predominantly inhibited, while TCR of several other families studied are not affected. The ability of a specific MHC/peptide mAb to inhibit and divert the CD8+ T cell response holds implications for vaccine design and approaches to modulate the immune response in autoimmunity. |
