Antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) against schistosomula of the human parasite S. mansoni was demonstrated using antisera from mice plus peritoneal exudate cells (PEC). PEC were divided into plastic-adherent (96% macrophages, 4% lymphocytes) and nonadherent (92% lymphocytes, 8% macrophages) cell populations. Four criteria of ADCC were used, including minimal and maximal cell attachment, and death of and uptake of trypan blue by schistosomula. Using cells from normal mice and antisera from schistosome-infected mice, macrophages adhered to, damaged the tegument and underlying structures of, and killed schistosomula when observed following 18 h incubation. In homologous systems, the results were similar when outbred CD-1 and inbred BALB/c mice were compared, except that potency of antisera from the latter mice decreased after 6-7 wk postinfection, whereas the opposite was true for the former strain of mice. Nonadherent cells also exhibited ADCC against schistosomula, but the potency was considerably lower than that of adherent cells. These complement-independent ADCC reactions were stage-specific for the schistosomulum in that no reactions occurred with adult worms.
