Abstract

The interstitial mononuclear cell populations of 22 renal grafts with interstitial rejection (IR), 6 grafts with interstitial nephritis without rejection (IN), and 5 kidneys without infiltration (3 donor kidneys, 2 grafts) were identified and quantitated by monoclonal antibodies recognizing T cells (TA-1, OKT3), helper inducer cells (OKT4), cytotoxic/suppressor cells (OKT8), B cells (BA-1), and monocytes and null cells (OKM1). Double-layer fluorochrome enhancement using F(ab')(2) reagents and nuclear counter staining with ethidium bromide enabled quantitation of the number of positive mononuclear cells, interstitial cells, and total cells on each of 30-55 microscopic fields per tissue section. T cells were the most abundant infiltrating cell in tissues with IR (35 +/- 9.8 percent), significantly higher than that seen in IN (21 +/- 16 percent) or in kidneys without infiltration (5.0 +/- 3.9 percent). The percentage of T cells identified by TA-1 or OKT3 was approximately equivalent to the summation of OKT4 plus OKT8. Although no differences were observed in the percentage of OKT4 cells, the percentage of OKT8 was significantly higher in IR (26 +/- 7.7 percent, P {less than} 10(-4)) than in IN (9.3 +/- 6.2 percent) or in kidneys w...Continue Reading

Antibody Specificity

Antibodies produced by B cells are highly specific for antigen as a result of random gene recombination and somatic hypermutation and affinity maturation. As the main effector of the humoral immune system, antibodies can neutralize foreign cells. Find the latest research on antibody specificity here.
