The mechanism of thymus-dependent antibody formation in bone marrow

G Koch, DG Osmond, MH Julius and R Benner

During the primary immune response of mice to i.v. administered thymus- dependent antigens the spleen is the major site of localization of antibody-producing plaque-forming cells (PFC). During the secondary response, on the other hand, large numbers of PFC not only appear in the spleen, but also in the bone marrow. By inducing B memory cells with a DNP-carrier complex and activating the DNP-specific B memory cells with the same hapten conjugated to a heterologous carrier, we show in this paper that B memory cells, but not necessarily T memory cells, must be present before booster immunization for PFC to appear in the bone marrow. The origin of the PFC that appear in the bone marrow during secondary type immune response was studied in parabiotic mice consisting of members congenic for the Igh-1 locus. From analysis of the allotype of antibodies produced by PFC in the marrow of such pairs of parabionts it appeared that antibody formation in bone marrow is dependent on the immigration into the marrow of B memory cells activated in peripheral lymphoid organs. Consistent with such a migration of activated cells, radioautographic studies in guinea pigs demonstrated an influx of newly formed mononuclear cells into the bone marrow via the blood stream during the first 3 days after intravascular antigen administration.
