pubmed:abstractText
T-cell lines specific for purified tuberculin (PPD), rubella, and herpes simplex virus (HSV) antigens were established from two Dw1/w2 heterozygous subjects. Fresh peripheral blood monocytes from healthy individuals with shared and non-shared D-antigens were used as presenting cells and the T-cell lines as responders in lymphocyte blast transformation assays with specific antigens. An HLA-restricted reaction was seen with all the antigens, although the PPD- and HSV-specific cell lines reacted stronger than rubella-specific lines when the specific antigens were presented by monocytes not sharing the D-antigens. A significantly lower response was seen when rubella antigen was presented by Dw2 positive monocytes as compared to response promoted by Dw1 positive monocytes (p less than 0.0001, Mann-Whitney U-test), whereas no such difference was seen in responses to PPD or herpes simplex antigen.
