Sequential morphologic changes in the lymphoid organs were examined after ocular and cloacal inoculation in 3weekold chicks with a highly virulent strain (SH/92) of infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV). The infected chickens were sacrificed at 6, 12, 24, 48, 72, and 96 hrs post inoculation (Pl), and thymus, harderian gland, ceacal tonsil, and spleen were observed. Histologically, the significant lesions were characterized by lymphocyte depletion and the earliest detectable changes were evident at 12 hrs Pl. In thymic cortex, lymphoid depletion with apoptosis and prominent "tingible body macrophages" were observed. As the infection advanced, the lesions showed more severe changes. Dying cells were characterized either by capping of nuclear chromatin (apoptosis) or by cytoplasmic swelling (necrosis). In situ staining for apoptosis, some lymphoid cells revealed typical positive reaction, even the stainability was variable depend on every lymphoid organs. These results suggest that IBBV (SH/92) cause severe damage both primary and secondary lymphoid organs, and both T and B lymphocytes. Also the lymphoid depletion of these organs is caused by necrosis and apoptosis induced by IBDV.d by IBDV.

4-lBB molecule is expressed on the surface of activated CD4$\^$+/ and CD8$\^$+/ T cells. We generated a panel of anti-4-1 B5 murine mAbs using a fusion protein consisting of the extracellular domain of human 4-1 BB fused to Glutathione S-transferase. The binding activity against cell surface 4-1 BB molecule was assessed by flow cytometry analysis. These studies showed that several anti-4-1 BB mAbs bound to 10-30% of CD4$\^$+/ and CD8$\^$+/T cells in PHA or Con A stimulated PBLs, although these mAbs interacted with only, l-2% of CD4$\^$+/ and CD8$\^$+/ T cells in normal PBLs, indicating the specificity of mAbs to the 4-l BB molecule on activated CD4$\^$+/ and CD8$\^$+/ T cells. Next, we examined the effect of an anti-4-l BB mAb (4B4-1-1) on allogeneic mixed lymphocyte reactions (MLRs). The data indicated that the antibody significantly inhibited the proliferative response at higher concentrations. When tested with several T cell mitogens, the antibody had no stimulatory or inhibitory effects on the mitogen-mediated T cell proliferation. These data suggest that 4-1 BB molecule may play a role in the regulation of antigen-mediated immune response.

Background: 1-8D gene is a member of human 1-8 interferon inducible gene family and is shown to be overexpressed in fresh colon cancer tissues. Three peptides 1-6, 3-5 and 3-7 derived from 1-8D gene were shown to have immunogenicity against colon cancer. Methods: To study tumor immunotherapy of these peptides we established an adoptive transfer model. $D^{b-/-}{\times}{\beta}2$ microglobulin (${\beta}2m$) null mice transgenic for a chimeric HLA-A2.1/$D^b-{\beta}2m$ single chain (HHD mice) were immunized with irradiated peptide-loaded RMA-S/HHD/B7.1 transfectants. Spleens were removed after last immunization, and splenocytes were re-stimulated in vitro. Lymphocytes from vaccinated HHD mice were transferred together with IL-2 to the tumor bearing nude mice that were challenged S.C. with the HCT/HHD/B7 colon carcinoma cell line that was found to grow in these mice. Results: Peptide 3-5 was found to be highly effective in CTL activity. Adoptively transferred anti-peptide 3-5 cytolytic T lymphocytes caused significant retardation in tumor growth. Conclusion: This study shows that peptide 3-5 can be the most effective candidate for the vaccine of adoptive immunotherapy against colon cancer.

인두의 임파조직중 해부학적, 기능적 구조상 가장 중요한 것이 구개편도로서 이는 소화기와 기도의 관문에 위치하고 있으며 외부로부터 끊임없이 세균을 비롯한 각종 항원의 자극을 받고 있는 장기로 알려져 있다. 이 편도의 기능에 대하여서는 종내 조혈기능설, 내분필기능설, 소화기능설, Vitamin 생성설, 세균침입구설등이 언급되어 왔으나 1860년 Virchow가 주로 방어기관으로서의 기능을 담당하고 있다는 소위 방어기능설을 제창한 이래, 다른 임파장기와 동일하게 면역방어에 관연할 것이라는 설이 가장 유력하게 대두되고 있다. 최근 면역학의 진보로 생체 내에는 흉농유내 임파구인 T 임파구에 의한 세포성 면역과 골구유내 임파구인B 임파구에 의한 액체성 면역의 양대 면역기구가 존재하여 각각의 고유한 면역반응이 수행됨을 알게 되었다. 저자는 상기한 편도의 면역방어기능설에 입각하여 편도의 면역학적 역할의 일면을 추궁해 보기위하여 1981년 5월에서 동년 10월까지 인제의과대학 부속 부산백병원 이비인후과에서 편도적출술을 시행받은 만성편도염 환자 30예와 건강대조군 29예를 선정하고, 만성편도염 환자의 술전과 술후에 각각 혈청 면역글로부린량과 말초혈야의 총 임파구 수 및 T 임파구, B 임파구, Null 임파구의 분포를 Single radial immuno-diffsion및 Higgy의 조직화학적 검사방법에 의해서 검색하고 이들을 건강대조군과 비교, 검토함으로서 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었기에 보고하는 바이다. 1) 혈청 IgM 양은 건강대조군보다 만성편도염 환자에서 의의있게 높았으나 만성편도염 환자의 술전과 술후 사이에는 의의있는 차이가 없었다. 2) 말초혈야 T 임파구의 분포는 대조군보다 만성편도염 환자의 술전과 술후 사이에는 의의있는 차가 없었다. 3) 말초혈청 B 임파구의 분포는 대조군보다 만성편도염 환자에서 의의있게 증가였으나 만성편도염 환자의 술전과 술후 사이에는 의의있는 차가 없었다. 증식이 있고 1개의 표본에서 연골피막내에 미숙연골 세포군이 존재. 6주-경도의 모세혈관의 확장과 만성염증반응이 존재하며 점막하층의 섬유조직화가 존재하였으며 2개의 표본에서 연골피막내에 연골 세포군 및 골화현상이 존재하였다. 8주-경미한 모세혈관의 확장이 존재하였으나 염증반응은 소실되었고 점막하층에 심한 섬유화를 동반하였다. 표본 2개에서 연골 피막내에 연골 세포군의 존재가 관찰되었다. 4 ) 이식방법을 달리한 경우에도 연골 및 점막의 재생에는 유의한 차이를 발견할 수 없었다. 5) 연골피막 이식부위에서 미숙연골 세포군과 endo-chondrial ossification을 관찰할 수 있었으나 대조군에서는 결손부위의 섬유화만이 관찰되었다. 이상의 결과로 볼때 연골피막은 기관결손부위의 재진에 적합한 조직이라할 수 있었다. 그러나 40 례의 표본중 5례의 표본에서만 연골의 세포군을 관찰할 수 있어 이로 미루어 볼때 연골피막으로 부터 신생 연골이 재생된다 확인하기는 불충분하다고 생각되며 앞으로의 추시가 요망된다 하겠다.출액이 형성된 경우에는 도말표본을 통한 세포학적 분석과 세균배양을 하였으며 시기별로 중이강 점막의 수술현미경 및 광학현미경적 변화를 관찰하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었기에 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다. 1) 이관폐쇄술후 18시간에 최초로 삼출액이 확인되었으며 그 이후는 전실험군에서 삼출성중이염이 유발되다. 2) 도말표본의 세포학적 검사에서 호산구는 전혀 발견되지 않았으며 초기에는 호중구가 주종을 이루었으나 제14 일이후에는 단핵구가 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 3) 삼출액의 세균배양검사에서는 전예에서 세균이 배양되지 않았다. 4) 수술현미경적 소견은 이관폐쇄 후 제 14 일에 점막비후가 가장 심하였으며 삼출액의 양도 가장 많았다. 5) 중이강점막의 병리학적 소견에서는 상피세포, 배세포 및 혈관의 증식과 염증세포의 침윤이 관찰되었으며 특히 염증세포는 도말표본에서와 같이 제 14 일 이

The immunomodulating activity of a polysaccharide isolated from Morus alba (PMA) root bark was examined in murine splenic lymphocytes. PMA enhanced proliferation of splenic lymphocytes in a synergistic manner in the presence of mitogens. However, PMA suppressed pri-may IgM antibody production from B cells, which was activated with lipopolysaccharide, a polyclonal activator, or immunized with a T-cell dependent antigen sheep red blood cells. Our observations showed that the immunomodulating activity of PMA increased lymphocyte proliferation and that PMA decreased antibody production from B cells, which was distinct from those of other plant-originated polysaccharides.

The CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cell (Treg) is a special kind of T cell subset. Studies have showed that Treg cells are involved in a number of physiological processes and pathologic conditions such as autoimmune diseases, transplantation tolerance and cancer. Tregs with unique capacity for immune inhibition can impair anti-tumour immunity and help tumor cells to escape from immune surveillance. The aim of our study was to investigate whether Tregs are involved in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). A BABL/C mouse with HCC in situ model was established to evaluate the Treg existence in carcinoma tissues and the changes of Tregs in spleen using flow cytometry and immunohistochemistry methods. Granzyme B expression in carcinoma tissues was analyzed by immunohistochemistry to investigate the tumor local immune status.The proportion of CD4+CD25+/CD4+ spleen lymphocytes of tumor bearing mice ($18.8%{\pm}1.26%$) was found to be significantly higher than that in normal mice ($9.99%{\pm}1.90%$) (P<0.01 ). Immunohistochemistry of spleen tissue also confirmed that there was an increase in Treg in tumor-bearing mice, while in carcinomas it showed Treg cells to be present in tumor infiltrating lymphocyte areas while Granzyme B was rarely observed. Anti-tumour immunity was suppressed, and this might be associated with the increase of Tregs. Our observations suggest that the CD4+CD25+Treg/CD4+ proportion in spleen lymphocytes can be a sensitive index to evaluate the change of Tregs in hepatocellular carcinoma mice and the Treg may be a promising therapeutic target for cancer.

목 적 : H. pylori의 감염은 세균의 병독 인자, 숙주 인자, 환경 인자가 복합적으로 작용하여 다양한 위장관 병변을 일으킨다. H. pylori의 병리 기전으로 지금까지는 주로 세균의 병독성에 초점을 맞추었으나 최근에는 숙주의 위점막 면역반응이 주목을 받고 있다. 소아는 술, 담배, 약물과 같은 환경 인자의 영향이 적어 연구에 적합한 대상이며 감염 초기를 반영한다는 측면에서 중요한 의의가 있음에도 불구하고 소아에서 위점막 면역반응에 관한 연구가 거의 없다. 이에 H. pylori 감염 소아에서 위점막 림프구를 분석하여 소아에서 H. pylori 감염으로 인한 국소 면역반응의 특징을 알아보고자 하였다. 방 법 : H. pylori 양성 소화궤양군 10명, H. pylori 양성 위염군 15명, H. pylori 음성 대조군 20명에서 얻은 위전정부 생검조직에서 hematoxylin-eosin 염색과 modified Giemsa 염색을 시행하여 개정된 시드니 체계에 따라 위염의 정도를 점수화하였다. 위점막에서 림프구 면역표현형을 알기 위해 CD3, CD4, CD8 T세포와 CD20 B세포에 대한 면역조직화학염색을 시행하였으며 점막 고유층에서는 400배 고배율 현미경 하에서 $0.0625m^2$ 당 양성 림프구 수를 기록하였고, 상피세포 내에서는 100개 상피세포 당 양성 림프구 수를 기록하였다. 결 과 : 림프구 침윤은 점막 고유층에서 상피세포 내보다 확연히 많았다. 점막 고유층에서 H. pylori 양성군에서 대조군에 비해 CD3, CD4, CD8 T세포와 CD20 B세포가 유의하게 증가하였고(P<0.01) H. pylori 양성 소화궤양군은 위염군과 달리 대조군에 비해 CD8 T세포가 유의하게 증가하였다(P<0.01). 한편, 상피세포 내에서는 H. pylori 양성 소화궤양군과 위염군 모두 대조군에 비해 CD4 T세포가 유의하게 증가하였다(P<0.01). H. pylori의 밀도, 다핵형 중성구의 활동성, 만성 염증 정도와 림프구 수는 점막 고유층에서 상피세포 내보다 더 밀접한 상관관계가 있었다. 결 론: H. pylori에 감염된 소아의 국소 면역반응은 주로 위점막 고유층에서 일어나며 T세포와 B세포가 함께 관여하였다. H. pylori 양성 소화궤양군에서 점막 고유층의 CD8 T세포가 유의하게 증가하여 임상질환과 점막면역의 연관성을 추정할 수 있었다. 향후 H. pylori 감염에서 국소 면역반응으로 야기되는 점막 손상, 연령과 인종에 따른 차이, 임상질환과의 연관성 등에 대하여 더 많은 연구가 이루어져야 할 것이다.
