Effect of CMA and Sr2+ on cytotoxicity mediated by HO-1. (A) HO-1 cells were preincubated with various concentrations of CMA for 2 hours. The CMA-treated or untreated HO-1 cells were then cocultured with 51Cr-labeled autologous LCL (Fas+/+ LCL) and Fas-deficient LCL (Fas−/− LCL), which had been loaded with the DEK-CAN peptide in the presence or absence of CMA at E:T ratios of 10:1 (▵), 5:1 (○), and 2.5:1 (□) for 4 hours. Effect of CMA on cytotoxicity mediated by alloantigen-specific CD8+ CTLs directed against Fas+/+ LCL and Fas−/− LCL was also examined. (B) HO-1 cells were preincubated with various concentrations of SrCl2 for 18 hours. The Sr2+-treated or untreated HO-1 cells were then cocultured with 51Cr-labeled autologous LCL (Fas+/+LCL) and Fas-deficient LCL (Fas−/− LCL), which had been loaded with the DEK-CAN peptide at E:T ratios of 10:1 (▵), 5:1 (○), and 2.5:1 (□) for 4 hours. The effect of Sr2+ on cytotoxicity mediated by alloantigen-specific CD8+ CTLs directed against Fas+/+ LCL and Fas−/−LCL was also examined.
