PartⅠ Introduction
• Owen first observed
immunological
tolerance to allogenic
antigen in fetal period
in 1945
cattle of dizygotic twin
Experiment of Medawar on immunological tolerance
• Definition: A type of specific unresponsiveness to
an antigen induced by the exposure of specific
lymphocytes to that antigen, but response to other
antigens.
• Tolerogens: antigens that induce tolerance
• Types: self-tolerance
induced tolerance
General features of immunological tolerance
• Tolerance is antigenic specific and results from the
recognition of antigens by specific lymphocytes.
• Normal individuals are tolerant of their own antigens(self
antigen)----- Self-tolerance.
• Foreign antigens may be administered in ways that
preferentially inhibit immune response by inducing
tolerance in specific lymphocytes---antigen induction.
Immunologic features of tolerance
 It is an antigen-induced, active process
 Like immunologic memory, it is antigen
specific
 Like immunologic memory, it can exist in
B cells, T cells or both
 Like immunologic memory, it's easier to
induce and last longer in T cells than in B
cells
Tolerance in T and B cells
Difference of Immuologic tolerance &
immunodeficiency, immunosuppression
Immunodeficiency:Deficiency in the production
of humoral and /or cell-mediated immunity--non-specificity to Ag
Immunosuppression: S uppression of immune
responses to antigens. This can be achieved by
various means, including physical, chemical---non-specificity to Ag
Part II Mechanism of Self Tolerance
1. Central tolerance:
Central tolerance occurs in the central lymphoid
organs as a consequence of immature selfreactive lymphocytes recognizing ubiquitous
self-antigen.
2. Peripheral tolerance:
tolerance was induced in peripheral organs as a
result of mature self-reactive lymphocytes
encountering tissue-specific self antigens under
particular conditions
1. Central tolerance
Clonal deletion (apoptotic cell death)
During maturation of T lymphocytes in the
thymus or B lymphocytes in the bone marrow,
immature lymphocytes that recognize ubiquitous
self-antigen with high affinity are deleted by
negative selection
Clonal deletion:
negative selection of T cells in the thymus
Negative selection of B cells in
bone marrow
2. Peripheral tolerance
1.Peripheral tolerance of T cells
① Clonal anergy
functional inactivation without cell death:
lack of co-stimulatory signal
②clonal ignorance:
self-reactive lymphocytes remain viable and
functional but do not react to the self antigens in
any detectable way.
③ Immunologically privileged sites
④ Regulatory T cells
CD4+CD25+ Treg: TGF- , IL-10
⑤AICD( activation-induced cell death)
Repeated stimulation of lymphocytes by
persistent antigens results in death of the
activated cells by a process of apoptosis. FasL
on activated T cell binds to Fas on activated T
cell and then induces T cell apoptosis.
2) Peripheral tolerance of B cells

①Clonal deletion
②Lack of Th cells
③Clonal anergy
④Receptor editing
Part III Factors affecting
tolerance induction
1. Role of antigen
2. Role of the host
1.role of antigens
(1)Types of antigen
•
Large, aggregated, complex molecules, properly processedimmune response
•
soluble, aggregate-free, simple small molecules, not processedtolerance
(2)Dosage of antigen
•
Optical dosage-immune response
•
Very high or very low-tolerance
(3)Portal of entry
•
Subcutaneous or intramuscular-immune response
•
Oral or intravenous-tolerance
(4) features of determinant

2.Role of the host
(1)Ages
• Adult, immunologically mature---Immune response
• Embryo and newborn , immunologically immature--immunological tolerance
(2) Differentiation state of cells
• Fully differentiated; memory T & B cells—Immune
response
• Relative undifferentiated B cell with only IgM, T cells
in the thymic cortex---immunological tolerance
(3) Species,Heredity, Gender, Health
Host age and antigen dose affect
tolerance
newborn
adult
PartⅣ Clinical Significance of
immunological tolerance
1. To induce immunological tolerance
•
•
•
Prevent the rejection of organ allografts and
xenografts
Treat autoimmune diseases
Treat allergic diseases
2. To terminate immunological
tolerance
• To treat tumor:
enhance first signal or second signal
• To treat infection diseases
