Abstract

The H-2 restriction pattern of cytolytic T lymphocytes (Tc) and T lymphocytes which mediate a delayed-type hypersensitivity response (Td) directed against infectious Sendai virus was investigated using H-2 mutant mice. Td and Tc lymphocytes exhibit the same fine specificity for self-recognition, for example, B6.C-H-2bm1 effector T cells were unable to recognize viral antigens in association with wild-type Kb and vice versa, B6.H-2bm6 effector cells did not mediate a reaction against virus plus wild-type Kb but, on the other hand, T cells of wild-type Kb recognized virus plus Kbm6 BALB/c-H-2dm2 T cells lacked reactivity against virus in association with wild-type Dd, but again wild-type Dd effector cells recognized virus plus Ddm2.
