  • Title: Modulation of F1 cytotoxic potentials by GvHR: role and mode of action of non-MHC genes that determine the hybrid resistance to GvHR-associated suppression of F1 cytotoxic potential.

    Abstract:
    The resistance of unirradiated F1 mice against graft-vs-host reaction (GvHR) induced by lymphocytes from certain parental strains is apparently a violation of the basic law in classical transplantation immunity. To explore genetic mechanisms of this peculiar phenomenon, GvHR-associated immunosuppression was examined on various kinds of F1 mice undergoing GvHR induced by parental lymphocytes. In F1 mice raised by crossing DBA/2 mice with various H-2-congeneic B10-series strains, parental lymphocytes having non-H-2 genetic background of DBA (DBA/2 and DBA/1) invariably could not induce GvHR-associated immunosuppression, irrespective of the H-2 haplotype incompatibility involved, whereas lymphocytes of the partner parental strain induced the immunosuppression. The number of the relevant loci in the DBA non-H-2 was assessed to be three recessive loci by examination of the capability to induce the GvHR-associated immunosuppression on lymphocytes from individual (B 10.D2 X DBA/2)F1 X DBA/2 backcross mice. On the other hand, in F1 mice raised by crossing C3H/He or AKR/J mice with various H-2-congeneic B10-series strains, parental lymphocytes of H-2k haplotype, irrespective of their non-H-2 haplotype, invariably could not induce the GvHR-associated immunosuppression. Furthermore, it was revealed that non-H-2 genes of parental C3H or AKR incorporated in the F1 mice determine the resistance of the F1 mice against the H-2k-induced GvHR. The results of examination of the resistance on individual (B10 X [B10.BR X C3H/He]F1) and (B10 X [B10.BR X AKR/J]F1) mice suggested that three non-H-2 loci of C3H/He or two non-2 loci of AKR/J incorporated in F1 hybrids could determine the resistance of the respective F1 mice.
