Tolerance and determinant hierarchy.

The overall T cell response to a multideterminant antigen consists of the sum of responses to a limited number of different determinants on the protein. Antigen-presenting cells (APCs) are crucial in delimiting the determinants on the protein to which a response will be mounted. This influence is apparent at two levels. First, the determinants that are generated and displayed by APCs in the thymus are pivotal in shaping the T cell repertoire that will be available for responding to antigen determinants in the periphery. Second, antigen processing affects the selection of determinants that become displayed by the various peripheral APC populations that are involved in inducing and promoting a T cell response. We have studied the effect of the display hierarchy on tolerance induction to individual determinants in transgenic mice expressing different serum levels of hen egg lysozyme. We have also analysed aspects of the processing machinery that contribute to shaping the hierarchy of determinant display on MHC class II molecules: proteolysis and reduction of disulfide bonds.
