Abstract
T cells acquire immune functions during expansion and differentiation in the thymus. Mature T cells respond to peptide antigens (Ag) derived from foreign proteins when these peptide Ag are presented on the self major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules but not on allo-MHC. This is termed self-MHC restriction. On the other hand, T cells do not induce aggressive responses to self Ag (self-tolerance). Self-MHC restriction and self-tolerance are not genetically determined but acquired a posteriori by positive and negative selection in the thymus in harmony with the functional maturation. Allogeneic bone marrow (BM) chimera systems have been a useful strategy to elucidate mechanisms underlying positive and negative selection. In this communication, the contribution of BM chimera systems to the investigation of the world of T-ology is discussed.

Abstract
Ia restriction specificity involved in T cell proliferative responses to keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) has been analyzed using a variety of allogeneic bone marrow chimeras. The chimeric mice were prepared by reconstituting irradiated AKR, SJL, B10.BR and B10.A(4R) mice with bone marrow cells from B10 mice. When such chimeric mice had first been primed with KLH in complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA), T cells from H-2 incompatible fully allogeneic chimeras showed significantly higher responses to KLH in the presence of antigen-presenting cells (APC) of donor strain (B10) than APC of recipient strain. However, in H-2 subregion compatible chimeras, [B10----B10.A(4R)], which were matched at the H-2D locus and at minor histocompatible loci, the T cells could mount vigorous responses to KLH with antigen-presenting cells (APC) of either donor or recipient type. The same results were obtained as well with chimeras that had been thymectomized after full reconstitution of lymphoid tissues by donor-derived cells. A considerable proportion of KLH-specific T cell hybridomas established from [B10----B10.A(4R)] chimeras exhibited both I-Ab and I-Ak restriction specificities. The present findings indicate that the bias to donor Ia type of antigen specific T cells is determined by donor-derived APC present in the extrathymic environment but that cross-reactivity to the recipient Ia is influenced to some degree by histocompatibility between donor and recipient mice, even though the histocompatible H-2D locus and minor histocompatibility loci seem not to be directly involved in the I-A restricted responses studied herein.

Abstract
In SWR mice the expression with high-density V beta 17a (high V beta 17a) of the T-cell antigen receptors correlates with the CD4+8- subpopulation of thymocytes. By contrast, in thymocytes of SJL mice the expression of high V beta 17a is observed on the CD4+8- or CD4-8+ subpopulation. However, when the thymocytes from SWR mice have been developed in the SJL or B10 thymus but not in the H-2 compatible DBA/1 thymus, a greater proportion of thymocytes that express high V beta 17a was found to be CD4-8+. By contrast, only a small proportion of KJ23a+ thymocytes from SJL mice that had differentiated in the thymus of SWR or DBA/1 mice was CD4-8+, whereas a high proportion of CD4+8- cells expressed V beta 17a. Further, an intermediate proportion of KJ23a+ thymocytes that had derived from SJL donor mice was present on CD4-8+ thymocytes that had developed in B10.A(4R) thymus. These findings demonstrate that the appearance of a particular subpopulation of thymocytes (CD4-8+ with a beta chain of T-cell antigen receptor identified as V beta 17a) is determined by the histocompatibility complex products that are expressed in the thymic microenvironment in which the T cells develop.

Abstract
Using irradiation bone marrow chimeras which had partial compatibility in H-2 subregions between donor and recipient mice, we found that H-2I matching was sufficient for the chimeras to generate anti-sheep erythrocyte plaque-forming cell (PFC) responses. In such chimeras, T cells appeared to encounter appropriate partner cells bearing the same Ia antigens as those which they had learned to recognize as self in the recipient micro-environment. Furthermore, the PFC number seen in I-A compatible chimeras was only about half of that seen in I-A, I-E compatible chimeras, suggesting the existence of two independent subpopulations of helper T cells. When incompatibility of donor and recipient mice existed on the left side of the H-2I region, the responses were very weak. However, even in such chimeras, marked responses were observed for both IgM and IgG type PFC following a sufficient period after immunization. This observation appears to indicate the existence of a minor subpopulation of helper T cells which can expand and interact effectively with antigen presenting cells of donor type.

Abstract
Using irradiation bone marrow chimeras to analyze restriction specificity of helper T cells, we found that recipient H-2 type dictated the H-2 type which the T cells recognize as self (adaptive differentiation). T cells from (H-2b----H-2k) chimeras cooperate with non-T cells bearing Iak to generate a vigorous PFC response to sheep erythrocytes (SRBC) in vitro, but not with genetically identical H-2b cells. However, when T cells from the chimeras and H-2b non-T cells were adoptively transferred into irradiated (donor X recipient) F1 mice with SRBC, marked responses were seen in recipient spleens where radio-resistant F1 macrophages might exist and act as antigen presenting cells (APC). From these in vitro and in vivo observations, we considered that in the primary antibody response to a T dependent antigen such as SRBC, only T cell-macrophage (APC) matching is required. In contrast, when T cells from H-2 incompatible chimeras which had been primed with SRBC in vivo were analyzed in vitro, these cells cooperated also with H-2b non-T cells. These findings indicate that there may be two separate stages of T cell differentiation during which the self restriction specificity is acquired: one appears to be responsive to intrathymic influences and is not associated with antigenic stimuli, and the other shows signs of being responsive to post-thymic stimuli and of involving antigenic presentation. Moreover, the latter appears to utilize the influence of donor type macrophages.

Abstract
The requirements for linked recognition and major histocompatibility complex-restricted interactions in helper T cell-dependent activation of purified unprimed and primed hapten-binding B cells have been investigated. The activation of unprimed hapten-binding B cells required specific antigen and restricted interactions between helper T cells and B cells. As expected, specific hapten-carrier conjugates were essential for the activation of B cells at low antigen doses. Interestingly, however, supraoptimal concentrations (125 micrograms/ml) of carrier protein alone could substitute for specific conjugates in the activation of unprimed B cells. The requirement for restricted helper T cell-B interactions was unchanged under these conditions. These results are discussed in terms of the signalling requirements for B cell activation. In contrast to the results using hapten-specific B cells from unprimed mice, the further stimulation of B cells prepared from mice primed 5 to 7 days earlier with immunogenic forms of the hapten was limited only by the requirements for helper T cell activation. The transition in the activation properties of B cells following in vivo stimulation was not solely a result of the binding of B cell membrane immunoglobulin to specific antigen, since the interaction of unprimed B cells with hapten during their purification, even for extended periods of time, did not alter the requirements for their further stimulation. These results demonstrate that the recent antigenic experience of B cells determines their activation state which, in turn, dictates the further requirements for helper T cell function in B cell stimulation. This implies that specificity of the immune response is determined in the early stages of B cell activation.

Abstract
The nature of the IgA B cell precursors that receive preferential help from selected clones of T helper cells from mouse Peyer's patches (PP Th A) were studied. Activation of the PP Th A clones required the presence of antigen, sheep erythrocytes (SRBC), in a culture system supporting development of antibody-secreting plasma cells. Two types of PP Th A cells were used. Both gave vigorous IgA responses; the first also supported low IgM, and the second low IgM and IgG subclass antibody responses. Removal of sIgA+ B cells from either splenic or PP B cell cultures selectively depleted precursors of IgA antibody producers. Cultures of purified sIgA+ B cells, cloned PP Th A cells and SRBC, selectively yielded IgA antibody producers. Finally, PP Th A cells did not support IgA responses in B cell cultures derived from spleens of young mice (days 1-25), and full IgA responses were not seen until the donor mice were 6-7 wk of age. These results suggest that cloned T helper cells can recognize and collaborate with mature, IgA committed B cells.

Abstract
Major histocompatibility complex (MHC) restrictions in the secondary antibody response in vitro to the soluble protein antigen trinitrophenyl keyhole limpet haemocyanin (TNP-KLH) were investigated. Experimental conditions were employed which ensured that co-operation between KLH-primed T cells and TNP-primed B cells was possible only through linked recognition of carrier and haptenic determinants. Under such conditions co-operation between T and B cells appears to be MHC-restricted. These experiments were designed to distinguish between two possible reasons for such MHC restrictions: (i) interaction between T and B cells is directly restricted by the MHC; or (ii) MHC-restricted T cell-antigen-presenting cell (APC) interactions limit generation of antibody responses and thus impose a pseudo-MHC restriction on T-B interactions. The ability of F1 APC to circumvent MHC restrictions was determined. The capacity of KLH-primed T cells from (P X Q)F1 leads to parent P and parent P leads to F1 X-irradiation bone marrow chimaeras to help TNP-primed parent P and parent Q B cells was assayed. Such T cells preferentially co-operate with parent P B cells. Addition of F1 APC from the spleen and the peritoneum did not alter the MHC restriction. Antibody responses stimulated by either high or low antigen concentrations were similarly MHC-restricted. Stimulation with antigen-pulsed F1 APC also failed to circumvent MHC restrictions. These results suggest that in this system involving linked recognition of antigenic determinants, the MHC directly restricts interactions between T and B cells.

Abstract
Allogeneic, H-2-incompatible irradiation chimeras (H-2d leads to H-2b) constructed with normal, unmanipulated bone marrow and with marrow-derived factors live long and do not manifest a GvH disease. Their response to primary immunization is deficient but their alloreactivity is normal. This chimeric allotolerance cannot be passively transferred from chimeric donors to normal irradiated recipients. Passive transfer of both donor- or recipient-type immunocompetent T-cells into the chimeric mice does not lead to syngeneic reconstitution, rejection of the engrafted marrow or GvH disease and the mice maintain permanently their chimerism. This new model demonstrates that chimerism is not eradicable in long-lived chimeras reconstituted with unmanipulated bone marrow, and that the bone marrow itself plays a dominant role in maintenance of chimerism.

Abstract
Murine bone-marrow cells cultured in the presence of colony-stimulating factor from mouse-lung-conditioned medium give rise to macrophages which function as accessory cells in antigen-specific T helper cell induction. Virtually all Ia+ bone-marrow stem cell-derived macrophages express determinants encoded in the I-A subregion. A second set of macrophages bears I-A as well as I-E/C-endoced determinants. The products of the I-A and I-E/C subregion, but not those of the I-J subregion, are involved in T helper cell induction.

Abstract
Cellular interactions involved in the T cell-dependent activation of B cells were analyzed by using lines and clones of helper T cells specific for determinants expressed on the B cell surface. Activation of male antigen-, M locus-, and H-2-specific T cells was shown to support polyclonal Ig production by a population of B cells that did not require T-cell-B-cell interaction for induction/amplification. However, these T cells alone did not activate gradient-purified small (resting) B cells. The activation of small B cells was shown to require not only a signal derived through an antigen-specific T-helper cell-B cell interaction but in addition a second signal that could be provided by anti-Ig antibodies.

Abstract
The present study has evaluated the identity of the B cell subpopulations participating in T dependent antibody responses that differ in their requirements for major histocompatibility complex-restricted T cell recognition. In vitro responses of keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH)-primed T cells and trinitrophenyl (TNP)-primed B cells were studied to both low and high concentrations of the antigen TNP-KLH. It was first demonstrated that for responses to low concentrations of TNP-KLH, (A x B)F(1) {arrow} parent(A) chimeric helper T cells were restricted in their ability to recognize parent(A) but not parent(B) H-2 determinants expressed by both B cells and antigen-presenting cells (APC). In contrast, at higher antigen concentrations, helper T cells were not restricted in their interaction with B cells. It was then determined whether these observed differences in T cell recognition resulted from the activation of distinct B cell subpopulations with different activation requirements. At low concentrations of TNP-KLH it was demonstrated that Lyb-5(-) B cells were activated, and that it was thus the activation of the Lyb-5(-) subpopulation that required T cell recognition of B cell H-2 under these conditions. In contrast, responses to high concentration of antigen required the participation of Lyb-5(+) B cells, and these Lyb-5(+) B cells were activated by a pathway that required H-2- restricted T cell interaction with APC, but not with B cells. The findings presented here have demonstrated that Lyb-5(-) and Lyb-5(+) B cells constitute B cell subpopulations that differ significantly in their activation requirements for T cell-dependent antibody responses to TNP-KLH. In so doing, these findings have established that the function of genetic restrictions in immune response regulation is critically dependent upon the activation pathways employed by functionally distinct subpopulations of B, as well as T, lymphocytes.

Abstract
This report has examined the requirements for T helper (T(H)) cell recognition of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) determinants expressed by B cells for the activation of unprimed Lyb-5(+) and Lyb-5(-) B cell subpopulations . The generation of primary T(H) cell-dependent plaque-forming cell responses in vitro microculture required the presence of Lyb-5(+) B cells because B cell populations that were deprived, either genetically or serologically, of the Lyb-5(+) subpopulation were not activated in these responses. Cell-mixing experiments in which A X B {arrow} A chimeric T(H) cells were mixed with purified populations of parental accessory cells and parental B cells demonstrated that the in vitro activation of Lyb-5(+) B cells did not require T(H) cell recognition of B cell MHC determinants, although it did require T(H) cell recognition of accessory cell MHC determinants . In contrast to the failure of Lyb-5(-) B cells to be activated in primary T(H) cell-dependent responses in vitro microculture, isolated populations of Lyb-5(-) B cells were triggered by T(H) cells in vivo in short-term adoptive transfer experiments . By the use of A X B {arrow} A chimeric T(H) cells and parental strain B adoptive hosts, it was possible in vivo to distinguish genetically restricted T(H) cell recognition of B cells from genetically restricted T(H) cell recognition of accessory cells. Similar to the results obtained in vitro, the activation in vivo of unfractionated (Lyb-5(+) plus Lyb-5(-)) B cell populations did not require T(H) cell recognition of B cell MHC determinants . In contrast, in the same in vivo responses activation of isolated populations of Lyb-5(-) B cells did require T(H) cell recognition of B cell MHC determinants. The most straightforward interpretation of these experiments is that T(H) cell recognition of B cell MHC determinants is required for the activation of Lyb-5(-) B cells but is not required for the activation of Lyb-5(+) B cells . To better understand why T(H) cell activation of one B cell subpopulation is genetically restricted, whereas activation of another subpopulation is not, the response of Lyb-5(+) and Lyb-5(-) B cells to the soluble activating factors present in concanavalin A-induced spleen cell supernates (Con A SN) was examined. It was observed that Lyb-5(-) B cells, as opposed to Lyb-5(+) B cells, were unable to respond in microculture to the nonspecific T(H) cell- activating factors present in Con A SN, even though they were able to nonspecifically respond under the same conditions to trinitrophenyllipopolysaccharide. It was observed that the ability of B cell subpopulations to respond to nonspecific soluble T cell factors paralleled their ability to be activated by T(H) cells in a genetically unrestricted manner. Thus, the present experiments demonstrate that activation by T(H) cells of Lyb-5(-) B cells is MHC restricted, whereas activation of Lyb-5(+) B cells is not. These experiments suggest that one possible explanation for such differences is that activation of Lyb-5(+) B cells does not require direct interaction with T(H) cells because they can be activated by soluble activation signals that T(H) cells secrete.

Abstract
Antigen specific helper and suppressor factors have a similar structure, with two major sections, a 'variable region', determining antigen specificity which is likely to be controlled by Immunoglobulin VH genes, with which it shares idiotype and framework determinants. Specific factors also have a 'constant region' which does not vary between strains and minimally between species or with the antigenic specificity of the factors, which are defined by rabbit anti-helper or anti-suppressor antisera. This region determines the biological function of the molecule. Anti-Ia antisera react with factors, but the nature and function of Ia molecules on T cell factors is still unclear. The model of specific factor structure, with C and V regions resembles that of immunoglobulin, and it is thus possible that the C region of factors, like the V region is Ig linked. Because there are multiple T cells, helping and suppressing antibody responses specifically, it seems improbable that all of these cells could interact directly with rare antigen-specific B cells. Thus we propose that macrophage presenting cells are the key to the integration of signals for immune induction and regulation for T and B cells. Since Ir genes have been identified in the macrophage presenting cells interacting with both T and B cells, this suggests that macrophage Ia antigens are of importance in the integration of triggering signals for the lymphoid pool.

Abstract
Cloned lines of helper thymus-derived (T) cells produce help for bone marrow-derived (B) cell growth and Ig secretion in the presence of histocompatible adherent cells and of specific antigen. This help stimulates histocompatible as well as histoincompatible B-cell blasts polyclonally. Thus, neither antigen nor histocompatibility, but antigen-unspecific factor(s) for growth and Ig secretion are required to stimulate a B-cell blast through the next round of division. On the other hand, only histocompatible, resting, small B cells, and only those binding their specific antigen, can be stimulated by antigen-activated T-cell help to initiate growth and Ig secretion. The preference of the resting B cells for such collaboration with T-cell help is mapped to the K end of the H-2 histocompatibility locus, and probably constitutes the antigen expressed on B cells by the immune response (I) region. It appears that a resting B cell is excited by the binding of specific antigen to surface Ig and by the interaction of its surface Ia antigen with helper T cells. After this dual recognition the excited B cell can be stimulated by the antigen-unspecific factor(s) generated by the interaction of helper T-cells, adherent cells, and antigen to initiate replication.

Abstract
(AKR x NZB)F1 mice possess the dominant genes, Akv-1, Akv-2, Nzv-1a and Nzv-2a, which determine the expression of ecotropic and xenotropic viruses. Nevertheless, their thymic lymphocytes fail to produce these agents, and these mice are resistant to leukemia. We investigated the mechanism of this cell-specific restriction in radiation chimeras. (AKR x NZB)F1 thymocytes that had differentiated in lethally irradiated AKR recipients produced high levels of ecotropic and xenotropic viruses and showed marked amplification of MuLV antigen expression. Polytropic viruses could also be isolated from such thymocytes. These virological changes in chimeric thymocytes were donor- and host-specific and occurred only when (AKR x NZB)F1 bone marrow cells were inoculated into AKR recipients. This inductive capacity of the host environment could be detected in irradiated AKR recipients as early as age 2 months. The phenotypic changes brought about in leukemia-resistant (AKR x NZB)F1 thymocytes by the leukemia-susceptible AKR thymic microenvironment may be the result of a three-component inductive system.

Abstract
AKR mice were protected from lethal irradiation and established as long-lived chimeras by transplanting allogeneic C57BL/6 (B6) bone marrow that had been treated in vitro with anti-Thy-1 antiserum without complement. In these chimeras, which were designated [B6 {arrow} AKR], virtually all the thymus and spleen cells were shown to be derived from the B6 donor; several immune functions studied in these chimeras were as follows: (a) The chimeric mice were tolerant of histocompatibility antigens of both donor and recipient strain and nearly fully reactive to antigens of third party, as revealed by Simonsen's splenomegaly assay. The tolerance of these chimeras could not be attributed to suppressor cells but was compatible with clonal depletion. (b) Proliferative responses to concanavalin A, phytohemagglutinin, and lipopolysaccharide as well as natural killer and antibody-dependent cell- mediated cytotoxicity activity of the chimeric mice was normal. (c) Plaque- forming cell (PFC) assays of antibody responses to sheep erythrocytes (SRBC) showed gross deficiency in the primary response of the [B6 {arrow} AKR] and [AKR {arrow} B6] chimeras. By contrast, [B6-H-2(k)(E(k)) {arrow} AKR] H-2-compatible chimeras and [AKR {arrow} AKR] syngeneic marrow transplanted mice had normal primary PFC responses. PFC responses after secondary stimulation with SRBC, however, revealed vigorous direct plaque formation and substantial but somewhat smaller indirect plaque formation in the [B6 {arrow} AKR] chimeras. This observation favors operationally the concept of adaptive differentiation proposed by Katz et al. (44). (d) Analysis of ability of the chimeras to develop and express delayed-type hypersensitivity responses to contact sensitizer (2,4-dinitro-l-fluorobenzene [DNFB]) showed no apparent immunodeficiency of either chimeras to this form of immunization. Development of immunologic tolerance to DNFB, however, was grossly deficient in [B6 {arrow} AKR] chimeras but normal in [AKR {arrow} AKR], [B6 {arrow} B6], and [E(k) {arrow} AKR] chimeras. These findings indicate that full chimeras across major histocompatibility complex have considerable immunologic vigor even though primary immune responses that require histocompatibility between interacting cell types are initially defective.

Abstract
Two basic types of factors reacting with anti-I region (anti-Ia) antisera are compared, those derived from macrophage-like antigen presenting cells and others derived from T-lymphocytes, of either the suppressor or helper type. Despite the common property of reacting with anti-Ia antisera, the two sets of factors differ by many criteria. Macrophages, upon culture with antigen, release complexes of Ia antigen and a fragment of the original immunogen. This material is only produced by responder macrophages and thus appears to be a soluble Ir gene product. The genetic restriction of the T-macrophage interaction was investigated in chimeras, and it was found that the host environment as well as the donor genotype was of importance in determining restrictions, which were thus not really directed to "self." There was no evidence for intrinsic T-cell Ir genes, as nonresponder stem cells developed into responder T-cells in a (responder X nonresponder) F1 environment. However, these cells only responded in the presence of responder macrophages. Specific T-cell factors are different in nature. These all react with anti-Ia antisera, but the nature or function of the T-cell Ia is unknown. The basic structure involves a VARIAble region" responsible for antigen binding which, as it reacts with anti-idiotype antisera and anti-variable region framework antisera is an immunoglobulin variable region. There is also a "constant region," defined by its biological properties as well as by specific rabbit antisera. This two-region nature of specific factors is reminiscent of immunoglobulin structure and it is a reasonable hypothesis that the constant region is linked to the Ig cluster of genes.

Abstract
The cooperating preference of helper T cells originating from F1 bone marrow, but differentiating in adult thymectomized, lethally irradiated F1 recipients reconstituted with either f1 or homozygous parental thymus grafts was investigated. Cooperating preference was assayed by determining the levels of helper activity provided by antigen-primed T cells derived from such thymic chimeras for hapten-primed B lymphocytes obtained from conventional F1 or parental donors in adoptive secondary antibody responses in vivo. The results of these analyses revealed a tendency of helper T cells derived from parental thymic chimeras to provide better help for B cells of the same parental type corresponding to the origin of the thymus graft than for the opposite parent. Such preference was, however, only marginal and rarely were differences in levels of helper activity provided to the respective parental types statistically significant. Moreover, this marginal preference, when observed, pertained only to responses of the IgG class; no concordant preference in providing helper activity for IgE antibody responses was observed even with the same populations of thymic chimera helper T cells. Finally, in no instance was there any evidence of restriction in the classical sense of presence versus absence of help as we have routinely observed in all of our previous studies concerning genetic restrictions of T-B-cell cooperative interactions. Although the basis for differences in the studies reported here when compared to observations made in cytotoxic T-lymphocyte systems is unclear, and could reflect genuine mechanistic requirements concerning what directs H-2 restrictions in helper T cells and cytotoxic T lymphocytes, respectively, it is also possible that we are placing too much faith in our interpretations of data obtained in bone marrow chimera systems than is perhaps justified by the potentially great fragility of such systems.
