Abstract
Studies on the immunological aspects of lymphoepithelial interactions in the intestine have been hampered by the difficulty to maintain enterocytes viable in vitro after isolation from the mucosa. We have recently established1 a mouse duodenal epithelial cell line, MODE-K, immortalized by the SV40 large T antigen, which retained phenotypical characteristics of normal enterocytes. We have examined the immunologic function of MODE-K cells in antigen presentation to a specific class II-restricted T cell hybridoma.
