Abstract
The capacity of peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) or Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-transformed B cell lines from CGD patients to process and present tetanus toxin (tt)-specific epitopes was assessed using various tt preparations and human tt-specific T cell clones. PBL from all of the donors were able to process and present either native tt and/or denatured tt to human T cell clones specific for various tt epitopes. Furthermore, no difference was found in the antigen requirement when normal or CGD EBV-B cell lines were used as antigen-presenting cells (APC). These results suggest that the deficiency in oxygen metabolism in CGD cells does not affect tt processing and presentation.
