An autoreactive T cell clone derived from a patient with reactive arthritis, two alloreactive T cell lines, two antigen-specific T cell lines and allogeneic resting T cells were analyzed for their responses to monocytes and macrophages derived from monocytes by in vitro differentiation. The autoreactive T cell clone strongly proliferated in response to fresh monocytes and to macrophages derived from a 7 day culture, but only poorly to monocytes cultured for 2 days. In contrast, alloreactive and antigen-specific T cell lines proliferated to all stimulatory cells equally well. Finally, primary mixed lymphocyte reactions could be stimulated by both fresh and 2-day cultured monocytes, but not by in vitro derived macrophages. The impaired response of the autoreactive T cell clone to 2-day cultured monocytes could not be attributed to reduced expression of several well-defined surface molecules nor to induction of nonresponsiveness. Neither allogeneic monocytes nor cytokines (IL-1, IL-2, IL-4, IL-6) could correct the defective response of the autoreactive T cell clone. However, preculture of monocytes in the presence of interferon-gamma, IL-1, IL-4 or IL-6 retained their stimulatory capacity. Our interpretation of the selectively impaired response of the autoreactive T cell clone is that it most likely recognizes a differentiation-dependent monocyte/macrophage-specific peptide.
