We have employed recently developed techniques in T-cell culturing to study the nature and function of infiltrating hepatic allograft T cells. Using the rationale that intragraft T cells are activated during cell mediated damage to the allograft, we were able to show that these cells would propagate and remain functionally active in the presence of the T-cell growth factor, IL-2. In several instances, phenotypic analysis of cells grown in this manner was very similar to that found within the graft. Both proliferative and cytotoxic responses could be detected from the cultured cell lines. The majority of the proliferative responses were donor-directed and immunogenetic analysis could define donor-directed HLA reactivity, to either class I or class II antigens, or both. Monoclonal anti-HLA antibodies inhibition profiles verified the apparent HLA reactivity. In a smaller percentage of cases, only IL-2 responsiveness could be detected, and no HLA reactivity could be determined. Cytotoxicity could be detected against both class I and class II antigens, however, those cells which demonstrated a greater magnitude of donor-directed cytotoxicity appeared to be directed against class I antigens. A significant correlation between donor-directed proliferation of biopsy cultured lymphocytes and cellular rejection was found. This model appears to be useful in delineating functions of the intragraft T-cell population during rejection.
