Cellular, genetic, and antigenic requirements for granuloma formation in murine listeriosis were determined by using adoptive transfer of granuloma formation. Granuloma formation was restricted by a class I MHC antigen (H-2K) and critically depended on a Ly-2+ (Ly-1+2+) T cell. Expression of granuloma formation required living bacteria; heat-killed bacteria was not sufficient. H-2K-restricted transfer of granuloma formation was associated with a high degree of protection. Markedly less protection, presumably due to macrophage activation by T cells, was found under conditions of H-2 I-A homology. It is concluded that two T cell populations are involved in protection against L. monocytogenes: protection associated with granuloma formation depends on Ly-2+ (Ly-1+2+) T cells, is restricted by H-2K, and requires products of living bacteria to be expressed, whereas protection based on macrophage activation depends on H-2 I-A-restricted T helper cells.
