Influence of 2'-deoxyguanosine upon the development of DTH effector T cells and suppressor T cells in vivo.

Subcutaneous (s.c.) immunization of mice with allogeneic spleen cells can induce delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) to both major and minor histocompatibility antigens. Intravenous immunization with allogeneic spleen cells, however, induces a poor state of DTH. Furthermore, i.v. immunization with allogeneic spleen cells, especially if they have been irradiated, induces suppressor T lymphocytes. These suppressor T cells are capable of suppressing the host-vs-graft (HvG) DTH reactivity that normally arises after s.c. immunization. Moreover, they can suppress the development of anti-host DTH effector T cells during graft-vs-host (GvH) reactions. These models for HvG and GvH DTH reactivity were used to study the influence of 2'-deoxyguanosine (dGuo) and guanosine (Guo) on the generation of DTH-reactive T cells and suppressor T cells in vivo. It was found that daily i.p. administration of 0.01 mg dGuo to mice immunized i.v. partially prevented the generation of suppressor T cell activity, whereas daily administration of 0.1 or 1 mg dGuo resulted in a complete abolition. Administration of dGuo has no effect on the anti-host DTH reactivity by spleen cells from nonsuppressed donors except for when a daily dose of 10 mg is administered. This dose proved to be toxic for precursors of DTH effector T cells. Daily i.p. injection of Guo had no effect on the generation of suppressor T cells nor on the generation of DTH effector T cells. The effect of dGuo was found to be due to a direct effect on suppressor T cells and not to the induction of contrasuppressor cells. These data suggest a differential sensitivity of DTH-reactive T cells and suppressor T cells for dGuo. Because suppressor T cells and DTH-reactive T cells require proliferation for expressing maximal functional activity in the systems used, both cell types probably have different enzyme activities involved in the purine metabolism and similar deoxycytidine kinase activities, but have different nucleotidase (5'NT) activities, those in suppressor T cells being the lowest. If so, suppressor T cells will accumulate deoxyguanosine triphosphate, which causes an inhibition of the ribonucleotide reductase activity and thus of the DNA synthesis by these cells.
