We have reported previously that the alleles of the ovine leukocyte antigen (OLA)-DRB1 gene that encode the Arg-Lys (RK) motif and the Ser-Arg (SR) motif at positions beta70/71 of the OLA-DRbeta1 domain are associated with resistance and susceptibility, respectively, to development of bovine leukemia virus (BLV)-induced ovine lymphoma. Here, to investigate the different immune response in sheep that carried alleles associated with resistance and susceptible for 30 weeks after infection with BLV, we selected sheep that had the RK/RK or SR/SR genotype among the 52 sheep analyzed by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism and DNA sequencing of PCR product for the OLA-DRB1 exon 2 and infected them with BLV. Although the number of BLV-infected cells and virus titer had been maintaining low levels throughout the experimental period, the sheep with the RK/RK genotype could induce expansion of CD5- B-cells and rapid production of neutralizing antibody in the early phase of infection. The level of incorporation of [3H]thymidine by peripheral blood mononuclear cells from the sheep with RK/RK genotype gave a strong response to BLV virion antigen and synthetic antigenic peptides that corresponded to T-helper epitope of the BLV envelope glycoprotein gp51. In contrast, the sheep with SR/SR genotype showed a strong response to BLV virion antigen and synthetic antigenic peptides that corresponded to T-cytotoxic and B-cell epitopes. In such cases, the animals with the RK/RK strongly expressed IFN-gamma, the animals with SR/SR genotype strongly expressed IL-2. To determine the proliferating cells, we tried a blocking assay with monoclonal antibodies such as anti-CD4, -CD8 and -DR molecule. We found that these proliferating cells were MHC-restricted CD4+ T-cells.
