The capacity of peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) or Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-transformed B cell lines from CGD patients to process and present tetanus toxin (tt)-specific epitopes was assessed using various tt preparations and human tt-specific T cell clones. PBL from all of the donors were able to process and present either native tt and/or denatured tt to human T cell clones specific for various tt epitopes. Furthermore, no difference was found in the antigen requirement when normal or CGD EBV-B cell lines were used as antigen-presenting cells (APC). These results suggest that the deficiency in oxygen metabolism in CGD cells does not affect tt processing and presentation.
利用各种破伤风毒素(tt)制剂和人破伤风毒素特异性T细胞克隆,评估了慢性肉芽肿病(CGD)患者外周血淋巴细胞(PBL)或爱泼斯坦-巴尔病毒(EBV)转化的B细胞系处理和呈递破伤风毒素(tt)特异性表位的能力。所有供体的PBL都能够处理天然tt和/或变性tt,并将其呈递给针对各种tt表位的人T细胞克隆。此外,当使用正常或CGD EBV - B细胞系作为抗原呈递细胞(APC)时,在抗原需求方面未发现差异。这些结果表明,CGD细胞中氧代谢的缺陷并不影响tt的处理和呈递。
