The aim of the present study was to develop an immunization procedure which centrally stimulated the IgA system of sheep with the release of antibody-containing cells (ACC) of the IgA class into intestinal lymph. It was found that intraperitoneal injection of ovalbumin resulted in a substantial output of ACC in intestinal lymph. ACC of the IgA class reached a peak 8--9 days after intraperitoneal injection when they comprised 1.4% of cells in lymph. ACC of the IgM and IgG1 classes comprised 3.5 and 2.9% of cells in lymph at this time. The output of ACC of the IgA, IgM and IgG1 classes in lymph at the peak of the response was respectively, 3.7 X 10(6), 9.8 X 10(6) and 8 X 10(6) cells/h. In marked contrast to rats, virtually no ACC appeared in intestinal lymph of sheep following intraduodenal infusion of ovalbumin in animals primed 2 weeks earlier by intraperitoneal injection of antigen in Freund's complete adjuvant (CFA).
本研究的目的是开发一种免疫程序,该程序能集中刺激绵羊的IgA系统,使含IgA类抗体的细胞(ACC)释放到肠淋巴中。研究发现,腹腔注射卵清蛋白会导致肠淋巴中ACC大量输出。IgA类ACC在腹腔注射后8 - 9天达到峰值,此时它们占淋巴中细胞的1.4%。此时,IgM和IgG1类ACC分别占淋巴中细胞的3.5%和2.9%。反应峰值时,淋巴中IgA、IgM和IgG1类ACC的输出量分别为3.7×10⁶、9.8×10⁶和8×10⁶个细胞/小时。与大鼠形成显著对比的是,在两周前经腹腔注射弗氏完全佐剂(CFA)中的抗原进行致敏的动物中,十二指肠内注入卵清蛋白后,绵羊的肠淋巴中几乎没有ACC出现。
