将α β TCR基因转移到T淋巴细胞中将提供通过增加肿瘤或病原体特异性T淋巴细胞的频率来增强Ag特异性免疫的手段。我们产生了一个有效的α β TCR基因转移系统,使用两个独立的单顺反子逆转录病毒载体携带的II类MHC限制性α或β TCR基因特异性鸡卵清蛋白。该系统使我们能够在44%的CD 4(+)T细胞中表达克隆型TCR。在体外培养体系中,转导细胞对OVA(323 - 339)肽有明显的免疫应答,其对抗原的免疫应答与转基因小鼠T淋巴细胞的免疫应答相当,连续转移小鼠体内可诱导抗原特异性迟发型超敏反应。这些结果表明,α β TCR基因转移到外周血T淋巴细胞可以重建Ag特异性免疫。我们在这里提出,这种方法提供了一个新的方法来操纵免疫反应和免疫治疗的基础。
Transfer of the alpha beta TCR genes into T lymphocytes will provide a means to enhance Ag-specific immunity by increasing the frequency of tumor- or pathogen-specific T lymphocytes. We generated an efficient alpha beta TCR gene transfer system using two independent monocistronic retrovirus vectors harboring either of the class II MHC-restricted alpha or beta TCR genes specific for chicken OVA. The system enabled us to express the clonotypic TCR in 44% of the CD4(+) T cells. The transduced cells showed a remarkable response to OVA(323-339) peptide in the in vitro culture system, and the response to the Ag was comparable with those of the T lymphocytes derived from transgenic mice harboring OVA-specific TCR, Adoptive transfer of the TCR-transduced cells in mice induced the Ag-specific delayed-type hypersensitivity in response to OVA(323-339) challenge. These results indicate that alpha beta TCR gene transfer into peripheral T lymphocytes can reconstitute Ag-specific immunity. We here propose that this method provides a basis for a new approach to manipulation of immune reactions and immunotherapy.
