HLA class I antigens seem to be involved in the proliferative response of PHA-activated human T-lymphocytes. We have previously reported that the treatment of PHA-activated peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) with an anti-HLA class I monoclonal antibody, 01.65, (i) inhibits the tritiated thymidine incorporation, (ii) inactivates cytosolic protein kinase C (PKC) and (iii) causes an increase in the duration of the cell cycle. Northern Blot kinetic analysis of c-fos, c-myc, cdc2, IL-2R, c-myb, ODC, TK and H3, from 10 minutes to 120 hours, was performed in MAb 01.65 treated cultures. We found that the expression of four genes (c-myc, IL-2R, cdc2 and TK) was depressed 24 hours after PHA stimulation.

Abstract
HLA class I antigens seem to be involved in the proliferative response of PHA-activated human T-lymphocytes. We have previously reported that the treatment of PHA-activated peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) with an anti-HLA class I monoclonal antibody, 01.65, (i) inhibits the tritiated thymidine incorporation, (ii) inactivates cytosolic protein kinase C (PKC) and (iii) causes an increase in the duration of the cell cycle. Northern Blot kinetic analysis of c-fos, c-myc, cdc2, IL-2R, c-myb, ODC, TK and H3, from 10 minutes to 120 hours, was performed in MAb 01.65 treated cultures. We found that the expression of four genes (c-myc, IL-2R, cdc2 and TK) was depressed 24 hours after PHA stimulation.I documenti in SFERA sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
