Fig. 7. PMN SAg-induced T-cell proliferation is HLA-DR–restricted. PMN from both an HLA-DRlow responder (donor 7; , unstimulated; □, GM-CSF/IFN-γ) and HLA-DRhigh responder (donor 2; ▨, unstimulated; ▪, GM-CSF/IFN-γ) were cultured for 44 hours in the absence or presence of 100 U/mL GM-CSF/IFN-γ, and 1 × 105 PMN from each condition were incubated with 5 × 104 CD4+ T lymphocytes in the presence of 1 nmol/L SEA. The MoAbs L243 (anti–HLA-DR), 197 (anti-CD64), and AML223 (anti-CD14) were added to the appropriate wells 30 minutes before the addition of SAg. T-cell proliferation was measured at 66 hours with an 18- to 20-hour [3H]TdR pulse and is presented as counts per minute (cpm). Values represent the mean of triplicate samples ± SD.
