Cytokine production by OVA TCR transgenic T cells during secondary stimulation. Naive CD4+/MEL14+ FACS®-sorted OVA TCR transgenic T cells were stimulated with purified CD11c+ DCs isolated from SP (A, B, and C) or PP (D, E, and F) in the presence of blocking antibodies against TGF-β, IL-10, or isotype control antibody for 5–6 d. T cells were restimulated with plate-bound anti-CD3∈ and soluble anti-CD28 antibodies for up to 48 h. Supernatants were harvested and IFN-γ (A and D), IL-4 (B and E), and IL-10 (C and F) levels were measured by ELISA at 24 (IL-4) or 48 h (IFN-γ and IL-10). The P values for cytokines secreted in the presence or absence of neutralizing antibody in the priming cultures are indicated with value labels or with an asterisk if P > 0.05. This experiment was repeated four times producing similar cytokine secretion patterns.
