We have used trinitrophenyl polyacrylamide beads (TNP-PAA) to induce a primary in vitro antibody response toward TNP in cultures of peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) from aged individuals. The response was virtually non-existent whereas PBL from young control individuals were able to respond. Recombination experiments showed that: (1) aged PBL did not suppress the response of young PBL; (2) young T cells enhanced the response of aged (unfractionated or T-depleted) cells; (3) aged T cells were unable to restore the response of young T-depleted cells, in contrast to young allogeneic T cells. Upon stimulation with Concanavalin A (Con A) aged PBL displayed a moderately diminished proliferative response and a normal ability to suppress the anti-TNP response of autologous PBL (in the few responders). However, contrasting with young PBL they could not suppress the anti-TNP response of young allogeneic PBL.
我们使用三硝基苯基聚丙烯酰胺珠(TNP-PAA)来诱导老年个体外周血淋巴细胞(PBL)培养物中针对TNP的原发性体外抗体反应。老年个体的反应几乎不存在,而来自年轻对照个体的PBL能够产生反应。重组实验表明:(1)老年PBL不会抑制年轻PBL的反应;(2)年轻T细胞增强了老年(未分离或T细胞耗尽)细胞的反应;(3)与年轻的同种异体T细胞相比,老年T细胞无法恢复年轻T细胞耗尽细胞的反应。在用伴刀豆球蛋白A(Con A)刺激后,老年PBL表现出增殖反应适度减弱,并且具有抑制自体PBL(少数应答者)抗TNP反应的正常能力。然而,与年轻PBL不同的是,它们不能抑制年轻同种异体PBL的抗TNP反应。
