A consequence of this may be induction of interferon-gamma (IFN-g) production and release by cytotoxic T cells, subsequently leading to expression of MHC II molecules on non-immune tissues.

Allopregnant (NFR/N [Swiss-derived] H-2q females x 57/Bl H-2b males) and syngeneically pregnant (NFR/N x NFR/N) mice were subjected to daily injections (10(5) U/mouse/day, from Day 5.5 of gestation) of recombinant rat or mouse interferon-gamma (IFNg) in order to investigate its ability to induce extra-embryonic major histocompatibility complex (MHC) expression and antipaternal immune reactions if administered during the first part of the gestation period.

|
Immunohistochemical stainings of cryosectioned tissues at Day 9.5 of pregnancy revealed that IFNg treatment caused a strong induction of MHC class I and class II expression on most cells in the uterus and on several cells in the maternal decidua, while there was a complete absence of detectable MHC class I and class II expression in the extra-embryonic tissues.

|
Characteristic for a Day 12.5 placenta of an IFNg-treated mouse (including embryo-transferred mice) was a strongly MHC class II-induced maternal decidua and a completely MHC class II-negative fetal placenta.

|
The pattern of IFN-induced MHC class I expression was similar to that of class II, with the exception of class I expression on scattered cells within the basal zone.

|
Thus, the present study provides immunohistological evidence that IFNg administered in vivo during the first part of gestation is not capable of inducing MHC expression on murine extra-embryonic cells despite an extremely high expression of MHC molecules on decidual cells in intimate contact with extra-embryonic tissues.

|
It is likely that the resistance to IFNg-mediated induction of MHC expression on extra-embryonic cells is of basic importance for the protection of mammalian semi-allogeneic fetuses.

This study analyzed whether human keratinocytes (KC) express conventional HLA class-I molecules as detected by class-I-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL), and whether exposure of KC to interferon-gamma (IFN-g) is required for CTL recognition.

Induction of MHC class II antigen in cultured bovine ciliary epithelial cells.

|
However, after incubation with bovine gamma-interferon (IFN-G) in concentrations as low as 0.3 units/ml, nearly all cells stained for MHC class II.

|
Tumor necrosis factor increased IFN-G-induced MHC class II expression.
|
| 12 |
2125019
|
To test whether MHC class II expression in response to IFN-G was specific for the ciliary epithelium, several intraocular tissues were grown in culture and incubated with IFN-G.
|
| 13 |
2125019
|
MHC class II expression was observed in all tissues tested for response to IFN-G, but at different sensitivities.

|
Three-day gamma-interferon (IFN-G) treatment enhanced MHC class I and II surface expression on all our targets and increased their susceptibility for CTL-mediated lysis in our experiments (specific release: 20-60%).

Immunohistology was performed to study the expression and localisation of MHC II (HLA-DR), HLA-DM, MHC I (HLA-ABC), CD1d, Invariant chain, Lamp-1, CD68, CD63, B7.1, B7.2, ICAM-1, Cathepsin D/S/L and the IEC specific marker A33 in the IECs.
|
| 16 |
16027013
|
We found that the IECs from the biopsies constitutively express MHC II, HLA-DM, MHC I, Invariant chain, Lamp-1, CD 68, CD63 and A33, and these markers were also found in the IFN-g treated HT-29 cells.
|
| 17 |
16027013
|
Interestingly, in the baso-latereral area of the IEC, only MHC II, MHC I, Lamp 1, CD68, CD63 and A33 were found and also here with vesicular staining pattern which matches the molecules previously found on exosomes derived professional APCs and human IEC lines.
|
| 18 |

|
CD1d, B7, ICAM-1, CD9 and cathepsin D and L were absent in the IEC compartment, but cathepsin S showed a relatively weak staining in the apical part of the IEC.

Here we test for evidence of selection in three genes involved in vertebrate immune function - the major histocompatibility complex (MHC), interferon gamma (IFNG) and natural resistance associated macrophage polymorphism (NRAMP) - in highly structured populations of wild thinhorn sheep (Ovis dalli).
|

|
The translated coding sequences of thinhorn IFNG and NRAMP are fixed and identical to those of domestic sheep (Ovis aries).

We have found that, in response to interferon gamma (IFNG), mouse Sertoli cells strongly up-regulate the negative co-stimulatory ligand B7-H1 but remain devoid of positive co-stimulatory molecules.
|
| 22 |
17989360
|
Blockade of B7-H1 on the Sertoli cell surface resulted in enhanced proliferation of CD8(+) T cells cocultured with Sertoli cells.
|
| 23 |
17989360
|
Moreover, IFNG-stimulated Sertoli cells were found to express, concurrent with B7-H1, MHC class II.
|
| 24 |
17989360
|
Interestingly, we found that coculturing T cells with Sertoli cells can indeed induce an increase in CD4(+)CD25(+)(officially known as IL2RA)FOXP3(+) Tregs and a decrease in CD4(+)CD25(-) T cells, suggesting Sertoli cell-mediated Treg conversion; this process was found to be B7-H1-independent.
|
| 25 |
17989360
|
Altogether these data show that Sertoli cells are potentially capable of down-regulating the local immune response, on one hand by directly inhibiting CD8(+) T cell proliferation through B7-H1 and, on the other hand, by inducing an increase in Tregs that might suppress other bystander T cells.

Classical MHC genes are expressed in a cell type-specific pattern and can be induced by cytokines such as interferon-gamma (IFNG).
|

|
Despite this, rodent and human trophoblast cells show dampened responses to IFNG that reflect the resistance of these cells to IFNG-mediated activation of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II transplantation antigen expression.

Previous studies have shown that methimazole (MMI) reduces MHC class-I expression and inhibits interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma or IFNG as listed in the MGI Database)-induced expression of the MHC class-II genes in TECs.
|
| 29 |
19837722
|
In the present study, we show that in Fisher rat thyroid cell line 5 cells, the ability of MMI and its novel derivative phenylmethimazole (C10) to decrease MHC class-I promoter activity is similar to TSH/cAMP suppression of MHC class-I and TSH receptor genes, and involves a 39 bp silencer containing a cAMP response element (CRE)-like site.
|
| 30 |
19837722
|
Furthermore, we show that C10 decreases MHC class-I gene expression to a greater extent than MMI and at 10- to 50-fold lower concentrations.
|
| 31 |
19837722
|
C10 also reduces the IFN-gamma-induced increase in the expression of MHC class-I and MHC class-II genes more effectively than MMI.
|
| 32 |
19837722
|
These data support the conclusion that the immunosuppressive mechanism by which MMI and C10 inhibit MHC gene expression mimics 'normal' hormonal suppression by TSH/cAMP.
