Abstract

Alloreactive cytotoxic T cells (CTL) were generated in mixed lymphocyte culture against cells bearing subgroups of BoLA w6, as well as in BoLA w4, w10 and w16. Primary cultures were restimulated at weekly intervals with irradiated stimulator cells and tested in a 51Cr-release assay with target cells derived from Theileria annulata-infected cell lines. Generation of CTL was accelerated in animals that had been previously primed in vivo by skin grafting. CTL were generated that were specific for BoLA w6 subgroups and not w6. With w6.1 the specific killing was significant at the 5% level, and with w6.2, 6.3 and 6.4 it was significant at the 0.1% level. Where CTL were potentially generated against two BoLA-A locus allele products at the same time (i.e. with heterozygous stimulator cells), one of which was a w6 subgroup, there was similar CTL activity against both products when w6.4 and w16 or w6.1 and w4 were the combinations involved. In two generations against w10 and either w6.1 or w6.2 there was significantly more killing of w10-bearing targets than those with the w6 subgroup.
