Anti-idiotypic antisera were produced in syngeneic (C57BL/6) mice against a monoclonal anti-Dextran B512 (Dex) antibody (38-13). In radioimmunoassays, anti-idiotypic antibodies were shown to react with the homologous idiotype, while failing to recognize another monoclonal anti-Dex antibody, independently derived from C57BL/6 mice (D-16). Plaque inhibition tests confirmed the specificity of the anti-idiotypic antibodies and revealed that the 38-13 idiotype is expressed by about half of all anti-Dex antibodies produced in C57BL/6, but not in CBA mice. Injection of normal (but not athymic) C57BL/6 mice with low doses of 38-13 monoclonal antibodies, contained culture supernatants or ascitic fluids, resulted in a 10-20 fold increase in the numbers of anti-Dex PFC detected in the spleen 5 days later, the majority of which carried the 38-13 idiotype.
