Abstract
Human T4 cells corecognize antigenic epitopes together with restriction elements on class II HLA molecules in membranes of antigen-presenting cells (APCs). In man, at least three different class II HLA molecules have been detected: DR, DQ, and DP. Antigen-specific (i.e., Chlamydia trachomatis-specific) proliferative T4 clones (TLCs) may be restricted by elements on DR, DQ, or DP molecules [9, 12]. The inhibitory effect of a panel of murine monoclonal antibodies (Mabs) directed against HLA molecules of the APCs was studied to further dissect the restriction specificities of the TLCs.
