The addition of Peyer's patch T cells from most strains of mice to spleen cells in primary Mishell-Dutton cultures either has no effect or augments the spleen cells' response to sheep erythrocytes. However, if the Peyer's patch T cells are treated with an anti-I-J antiserum and complement to remove contrasuppressor-inducer cells, the remaining Ly-2 cells (T cells that express Ly-2 but not Ly-1) are highly suppressive. This "latent" suppressor cell activity also can be revealed by removing contrasuppressor-acceptor (transducer) cells from the splenic assay population with either an anti-I-J or anti-Ly-2 antiserum. These findings, taken together with previous work showing that orally administered antigen leads to systemic tolerance, give experimental support to the notion that contrasuppression may be important in allowing microenvironmental immune responses (in this case the gut-associated lymphoid tissue) to take place while systemic immunity is suppressed.
