We have produced a panel of cloned T cell lines from the BDC-2.5 TCR transgenic (Tg) mouse that exhibit a Th2 cytokine phenotype in vitro but are highly diabetogenic in vivo. Unlike an earlier report in which T cells obtained from the Tg mouse were cultured for 1 wk under Th2-promoting conditions and were found to induce disease only in NOD.scid recipients, we found that long-term T cell clones with a fixed Th2 cytokine profile can transfer disease only to young nonobese diabetic (NOD) mice and never to NOD.scid recipients. Furthermore, the mechanism by which diabetes is transferred by a Tg Th2 T cell clone differs from that of the original CD4+ Th1 BDC-2.5 T cell clone made in this laboratory. Whereas the BDC-2.5 clone rapidly causes disease in NOD.scid recipients less than 2 wk old, the Tg Th2 T cell clones can do so only when cotransferred with other diabetogenic T cells, suggesting that the Th2 T cell requires the presence of host T cells for initiation of disease.
