Title Delineation of the minimal encephalitogenic epitope within the immunodominant region of myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein: diverse V beta gene usage by T cells recognizing the core epitope encephalitogenic for T cell receptor V beta b and T cell receptor V beta a H-2b mice

Result the T cell reactivity against the immunodominant encephalitogenic region of MOG is characterized by a diverse Vp gene usage and a requirement for the same core epitope. This pattern of reactivity may favor epitope-directed, rather than TCR-targeted, approaches to immunospecific therapy for MOG-related autoimmune disease
Mechanism/Pathway Encephalitogenic T cell lines from V(3” mice were also diverse in their TCR Vp gene usage (Vpl, Vp2, Vp6, Vp14 and Vp16). Such a heterogeneous TCR Vp gene expression by pMOG 35-55/I-Ab-reactive T cells from both Vpa and Vpb H-2b mice suggested multiple epitopes within pMOG 35-55. Analysis of the pattern of reactivity by pMOG 35-55-reactive T cells to a set of truncated peptides was not commensurate with independent nested epitopes, but revealed a requirement for recognition of a core sequence, YRSPFSRVV (pMOG 40-48)
