| Abstract | The influences of the T-cell genotype and the T-cell maturation environment on generation of the T-cell alloreactive repertoire were evaluated in cytotoxic T-lymphocyte responses to Kb mutant determinants expressed by the strains B6. C-H-2bm1 and B6-H2-bm6. By constructing bone marrow chimeras using either H-2b of H-2d mice as the source of donor cells and either H-2d or H-2b irradiated mice as recipients, it was first determined whether the T-cell major histocompatibility complex genotype alone determines the alloreactive repertoire. The results of such experiments indicated that H-2b T cells that have matured in a normal H-2b environment (C57BL/6N, C57BL/10Sn) or H-2d T cells that have matured in a chimeric H-2b environment (B10.D2 leads to C57BL/10Sn) are responsive to Kbm1 and Kbm6 determinants while H-2b T cells that have matured in an H-2d chimeric environment (C57BL/10Sn leads to B10.D2) have a diminished responsiveness to H-2bm1 and are completely unresponsive to H-2bm6. These findings showed that T-cell genotype alone does not determine the alloreactive repertoire to mutant Kbm1 and Kbm6 determinants and suggested that the T-cell maturation environment plays a critical role in this process. Further studies were carried out to determine whether the T-cell maturation environment alone determines this repertoire, such that maturation in an H-2b but not in an H-2d environment is both necessary and sufficient to generate reactivity to Kbm6. Experiments in which either H-2d responder populations neonatally made tolerant to H-2b or unlabeled target blocking of normal H-2d responders were used provided evidence that T cells specific for Kbm6 mutant determinants are present in the repertoire of H-2d T cells that have matured in an H-2d environment. These findings suggest that the alloreactive T-cell repertoire is not determined by the T-cell major histocompatibility complex genotype alone or by the T-cell maturation environment alone but rather than it is the product of unique interactions between the two. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
