pubmed:abstractText |
Effector mechanisms that produce delayed hypersensitivity reactions to tuberculin are subject to positive immunoregulation. Two different immunoregulatory mechanisms can be demonstrated. One is specific and the other, antigenic competition, is non-specific; both are sensitive to cyclophosphamide (CY). Delayed hypersensitivity to purified protein derivative PPD in guinea-pigs can be enhanced by the administration of cyclophosphamide 3 days before but not after immunization. The enhanced response seems to result from the reduced influence on effector cells of CY-sensitive suppressor cells. Passive transfer of delayed hypersensitivity to PPD is facilitated by the use of cells from CY treated animals. The response to both immunization and skin testing with ovalbumin in animals immunized with this antigen in Freud's complete adjuvant (FCA) produces a marked, non-specific reduction in the delayed hypersensitivity response to PPD. CY given 3 days before or 1 day after immunization prevents this suppression of the PPD response by antigenic competition. The data suggests that in the generation of both the specific suppressor cells for tuberculin and the non-specific suppressor cells of antigenic competition, that can influence effector cells for tuberculin, a period of rapid cell proliferation occurs that renders both mechanisms sensitive to cyclophosphamide.
