Cellular interaction between MOPC-104E (M104E) cross-reactive idiotypic (CRI) antibody-producing B lymphocytes and lymphocytes generated by immunization with the relevant idiotype, M104E, was investigated. Adoptive transfer of M104E idiotype-primed and normal spleen cells into 600R x-irradiated syngeneic recipient mice resulted in striking enhancement of the M104E-CRI positive antibody response upon simultaneous immunization of recipients with dextran B1355S. The enhancement was not attributable to a simple additive effect but was due to synergistic cooperation between the two lymphocyte populations. This synergistic enhancement of the anti-idiotype immune cells producing CRI antibody was specific for MOPC-104E CRI, and was reproducible in an in vitro culture system. Because of the cellular characteristics of the enhancing cells, they were assumed to be B lymphocytes specific for the corresponding idiotype, since the activity was not abrogated by treatment with anti-Thy-1, anti-Lyt-1, anti-Lyt-2, or anti-brain-associated theta antisera plus complement, but was eliminated by means of a planning method using a rabbit-anti-mouse immunoglobulin-coated or idiotype-coated dish. The mechanisms of interaction between the CRI-positive B cells and anti-idiotypic B cells in response to the thymus-independent antigen dextran B1355S are discussed.
