Abstract

T cells have generally been regarded as targets for interleukin 1 (IL 1) action. However, we recently observed that the D10.G4.1 T cell clone, widely used as an assay cell for IL 1 (1), produced its own IL 1 following activation by antigen-presenting B cells (2). Here we extend our observations on T cell IL 1: 1) The majority of murine T cell clones produced an IL 1 activity after stimulation 2) This IL 1 activity was neutralized by anti-IL 1-α antibody 3) IL 1 mRNA could be visualized in individual cloned T cells using in situ hybridization 4) Anti-IL 1-α antibody blocked proliferation of antigen-stimulated T cell clones under conditions in which the T cell was the sole IL 1 source.
