Bulk culture and limiting dilution analysis (LDA) were used to follow the ontogeny of the tolerant state in CBA/ HT6T6 mice neonatally tolerized to allogeneic histocompatibility antigens. Advantage was taken of the fact that the lymph nodes (LN) of young mice show immunocompetence before spleen cells do, allowing analysis of actual reactivity as early as 1 wk of age. At 1 wk, the LN cells of mice tolerized i.v. showed a loss of CTL reactivity in bulk culture specific for the tolerizing antigens; a corresponding specific decrease was seen in the frequency of CTL precursors (CTLp). At the same age, however, proliferative responses and interleukin 2 (IL 2) production in MLC were nonspecifically depressed in the tolerized animals. LDA of IL 2 producer precursor frequency (IL- 2Tp ) showed that there was a nonspecific loss of 50% of functional alloreactive IL- 2Tp , accompanied by a larger specific decrease of 90% in the frequency of IL- 2Tp responding to the injected alloantigens. These characteristics of the tolerant state persisted through at least 4 wk of age. Neither the proliferative nor CTL response deficiencies could be overcome by the addition of Con A supernatant containing IL 2. Mixing experiments failed to show evidence of suppressor cell involvement in the loss of the proliferative response. Our results indicate that the specific loss of alloreactivity after tolerization is due to clonal inactivation or deletion of both CTLp and IL- 2Tp , which is obvious as early as 7 days of age. In addition, the differences in the specificity of the clonal inactivation between CTLp and IL- 2Tp suggest the existence of independent mechanisms for tolerization.
