The ability of monoclonal anti-Thy-1 antibodies to stimulate IL-2 production and T-cell proliferation has raised the possibility that Thy-1 may play an important role in T-cell activation. To examine this postulated role we have produced Thy-1-negative variants of the murine T lymphoma EL-4 by mutagenesis with ethyl methanesulfonate (EMS) and subsequent negative selection with anti-Thy-1 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and complement. Although the parental EL-4 cell line produced interleukin-2 (IL-2) in response to concanavalin A (Con A), phytohemagglutinin, anti-Thy-1 mAbs, and an anti-T3 mAb, as well as after exposure to phorbol myristate acetate (PMA), only PMA was capable of inducing IL-2 production by several Thy-1-negative cell lines. The loss of responsiveness to cell surface stimulatory ligands appeared to be correlated with loss of Thy-1 expression because mutagenized cells selected for high levels of Thy-1 expression all responded normally to Con A. However, when Thy-1 expression was reconstituted in the "nonresponder" (Thy-1-negative) cell lines either by transfection of a Thy-1.2 gene or by 5-azadeoxycytidine treatment, the revertant cell lines were still unable to produce IL-2 when stimulated with Con A, anti-Thy-1, or anti-T3. Furthermore, several other independently derived Thy-1-negative EL-4 cell lines responded normally to mitogens and mitogenic mAbs. Taken together, these results suggest that Thy-1 expression is not required for the T-cell activation process and that the EMS mutagenesis procedure resulted in an additional mutation(s) responsible for the inability of certain Thy-1-negative cell lines to be triggered by mitogens and mitogenic mAbs. These cell lines may prove to be valuable tools for further biochemical and molecular studies of the sequence of events associated with T-cell activation. 相似文献

DNA methylation alters chromatin structure and regulates Thy-1 expression in EL-4 T cells 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Thy-1 exhibits marked differences in expression in various tissues in many species; therefore, it is of interest to define possible mechanisms that may regulate Thy-1 expression. We produced Thy-1 negative variants of the murine T cell lymphoma EL-4 by mutagenesis with ethylmethanesulfonate (EMS), negative selection with anti-Thy-1 monoclonal antibodies (mAb) plus complement, and fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS). Thy-1 surface negative (Thy-1-) mutants produced in this manner were shown to produce no detectable Thy-1 mRNA, but contained an intact Thy-1 gene as determined by Southern blotting. 5' CG sequences, which had been demethylated in the parent EL-4 clone, were completely methylated in the EMS-induced Thy-1-variant. In addition, a DNase I hypersensitive site that mapped to the 5' end of the Thy-1 gene in EL-4 was absent in the Thy-1- variant. Treatment of this Thy-1- clone with 5-azadeoxycytidine (5-dAZA) resulted in re-expression of surface Thy-1, demethylation of the 5' CG sequences, and regeneration of the DNase I hypersensitive site. These studies indicate that methylation of certain critical DNA sequences in the 5' region of the Thy-1 gene can alter local chromatin structure and regulate expression of this gene. 相似文献

It has proved difficult to obtain good immunohistochemical localization of cell surface antigens in nerve for a number of reasons, prominent among which are problems of fixing this class of molecule without destroying their antigenicity. In the course of developing a fixation procedure suitable for one such antigen. Thy-1, we have quantitatively assessed the effect of different fixation parameters upon the retention of Thy-1 antigenicity and upon the extent of cross-linking of the antigen in the tissue. The former was measured using radioimmunoassays adapted for membrane antigens in fixed tissue, the latter by measuring the proportion of antigen rendered insoluble to the detergent, sodium deoxycholate, and by examining the size of the antigen on sodium dodecyl sulfate--polyacrylamide gels. These approaches demonstrated that minor modifications of the standard vascular perfusion fixation of brain, using both glutaraldehyde and paraformaldehyde, were sufficient to fix the Thy-1 molecule, and at the same time substantially spare its antigenicity. In this study we measured Thy-1 using both a conventional rabbit antiserum and a mouse monoclonal antibody to the Thy-1.1 antigenic determinant. The multiple antigenic determinants recognized by the rabbit antibodies were cumulatively more resistant to fixation than the single antigenic determinant recognized by the monoclonal antibody. 相似文献

Sialic acid has been shown to be part of the antigenic determinant of the Thy-1.2 alloantigen as expressed by the murine cell line S-49.1 TB-2-3 (S-49). This conclusion is based on the loss of cytotoxic inhibitory activity by the action of neuraminidase on the Thy-1.2 alloantigen. Also, sialic acid has the ability to inhibit the cytotoxic assay of AKR anti-C3H Thy-1.2 serum for S-49 cells. Further evidence for the protein nature of the Thy-1.2 alloantigen is apparent by trypsin digestion. Possibly the Thy-1.2 alloantigen as expressed on S-49 cells is a glycoprotein. 相似文献

Somatic cell variants expressing an altered antigenic form of the H-2Kb molecule were isolated for the purpose of performing structure-function analysis of a class I MHC molecule. Over 25 independently isolated variants were derived from an Abelson virus transformed pre- B cell line (R8) by mutagenesis with ethyl methane sulfonate or ethyl nitrosourea. Negative selection was performed by complement-dependent cytotoxicity with anti-H-2Kb monoclonal antibodies subsequently followed by positive selection to separate the H-2Kb surface negative variants from structural variants. Biochemical characterization of a random selection of three independent variants indicated that the variant H-2Kb molecule was present in normal amounts in lysates, and was unchanged in size. Cytofluorometric analysis with the use of a panel of seven monoclonal antibodies against H-2Kb indicated that all of the variants had lost one or more alloantigenic determinants (monoclonal antibody binding sites). For these variants, the pattern of monoclonal antibody loss of recognition suggested that antibody defined alloantigenic determinants appear to be discretely localized to a single domain, either the alpha 1 or the alpha 2 domain, of the H-2Kb molecule. In contrast, CTL recognition of the Kb molecule of these variants depends on involvement of both alpha 1 and alpha 2 domains as shown in the companion paper. 相似文献

Internalization of phosphatidylinositol-anchored lymphocyte proteins. I. Documentation and potential significance for T cell stimulation 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7

Several proteins that are anchored to the surface of T lymphocytes via a phosphatidylinositol (PI) moiety can initiate cell stimulation upon cross-linking. Inasmuch as these proteins do not traverse the plasma membrane, it is not clear how they are capable of signaling across the membrane. Herein we report two distinct sets of experiments that examine the consequence of cross-linking PI-anchored molecules on murine T cells. We first analyzed the fate of antibody cross-linked TAP (Ly-6A.2) and Thy-1 molecules on T-T hybrids. Using an assay to measure receptor-mediated endocytosis, an intracellular accumulation of 125I labeled anti-TAP and anti-Thy-1 mAb was documented that was specific and Ag dependent. The internalization of these molecules was confirmed by cytotoxicity assays using antibody-toxin conjugates, and electron microscopic studies. Although the PI-anchored proteins lack a cytoplasmic domain that is necessary for the internalization of many receptors, they nevertheless can be induced to enter the cell upon cross-linking. The rate of entry of cross-linked TAP and Thy-1 into cells was shown to be 10 and 2% per hour, respectively, which is considerably less than that observed for the transferrin receptor or TCR/CD3 complex. To assess whether the internalization of TAP and Thy-1 might be of importance in their ability to stimulate T cells, we attempted to cross-link these molecules under conditions where the mAb or its cross-linked complex can not enter the cell. We observed that anti-TAP and anti-Thy-1 mAb conjugated to a cell impermeant matrix fail to stimulate T cells. This loss of stimulatory activity was observed with multiple T-T hybridomas and mAb over a wide titration of antibody concentration and was independent of the mAb isotype. Results from experiments with anti-Ig cross-linking of the mAb-PI anchored protein complex suggested that the loss of T cell stimulation upon mAb immobilization is not simply due to an alteration in the degree of antibody cross-linking. These findings were generalized to three distinct PI-anchored proteins: TAP, Thy-1, and Ly6C on normal T cells. When the same cells were stimulated through the TCR/CD3 complex, only immobilized mAb are stimulatory. These results demonstrate a marked difference in the cross-linking requirements for stimulating T cells through PI-anchored molecules in contrast to the transmembrane TCR complex. Furthermore, these findings raise the possibility that molecular internalization of Ab-PI-anchored complexes may be necessary in signaling through these molecules. 相似文献

In the present experiments we have explored the possibilities of a modified immunoadsorbent technique to select for (1) mutagenized T cell receptor (Tcr) negative variants of Jurkat T lymphoma cells and (2) purified CD-4+ or CD-8+ T lymphocytes. The basic principle was to make large numbers of immunoglobulin (Ig) negative T cells Ig+ by T cell subset-specific monoclonal antibodies (mAb), and to select such cells on Ig anti-Ig columns. Our results demonstrated that Thy-1+, Fc receptor positive, antigen-specific T cells regulate the immune response in mice nonresponders to pork insulin, and the "autologous" mixed lymphocyte reaction. In addition, the immunoadsorbent method very efficiently selects Tcr/CD-3- variants from mutagenized Jurkat cell populations incubated with anti-CD3 mAb. The described method is easy and quick and can fractionate large numbers of cells; it is the "poor-man's cell sorter." The most important finding is the demonstration of antigen-specific Thy-1+, CD-8+, and Fc receptor+ T suppressor cell that apparently react with antigen in a non-major histocompatibility complex-restricted manner. 相似文献

The synthesis and properties of T25 glycoprotein which bears the serological specificity Thy-1 have been studied in mutants of cultured mouse lymphoma cells that do not express Thy-1 on their surface. Five complementation classes of mutant cells were previously characterized by somatic genetic analysis. Synthesis of abnormal T25 glycoproteins was detected in four classes of mutants. Each of these aberrant products was degraded more rapidly than T25 glycoprotein of wild-type cells. Defects in the oligosaccharide units of T25 glycoprotein were demonstrated in three classes of mutants. In one of these mutant classes, evidence for a general defect in glycosylation of cell surface glycoproteins was obtained. These data indicate that normal glycosylation of T25 glycoprotein is probably essential for the molecule to be incorporated into the plasma membrane and expressed on the cell surface. 相似文献

Thy-1 inhibits mitogen-induced Ca2+ oscillation in ras-transformed mouse fibroblasts. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Cell surface glycoprotein Thy-1 functions as a transformation suppressor in v-ras-transformed NIH/3T3 cells [Sugimoto et al., (1991) Cancer Res. 51, 99-104.]. In order to understand the mechanism of action of Thy-1, we examined the effect of Thy-1 expression on mitogen-induced Ca2+ oscillation which was correlated with v-ras-transformation [Fu et al., (1991) FEBS Lett. 281, 263-266.]. Forced expression of Thy-1 in v-ras-transformed cells inhibited mitogen-induced Ca2+ oscillation. Although v-Ras-free, Thy-1-positive NIH/3T3 cells (major population) did not show Ca2+ oscillation, whereas in Thy-1-negative NIH/3T3 cells (less than 1% of the population) Ca2+ oscillation was observed. Finally, replacement of the carboxyl-half of Thy-1 with that of CD4 abolished the inhibitory effect of Thy-1. These results suggest that Thy-1 directly or indirectly participates in the negative regulation of Ca2+ response by inhibiting Ca2+ oscillation. 相似文献

A new thymocyte membrane-brain antigenic system is defined for the mouse and rat. Monoclonal antibody NIM-M129 recognizes a membrane antigen that has a similar size to Thy-1 (20–23 kd) but entirely different tissue distribution. It is absent from cortisone-resistant thymocytes, murine peripheral T cells, T-cell blasts, and T-cell lymphomas, or rat bone marrow. However, the determinant exhibits a quantitative difference in expression on thymocytes of Thy-1

IL 2 production by T cell variants, which lack the Thy-1 or Ly-1 surface glycoproteins, was studied. Cross-linking of the Thy-1 molecule resulted in IL 2 production by the EL4 thymoma and by a T cell hybridoma, suggesting that Thy-1 may play a role in T lymphocyte triggering. To further study the functional role of this molecule, Thy-1-negative variants were selected and analyzed for IL 2 production in response to phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA) or to Con A. It was demonstrated that in spite of their failure to express Thy-1, the Thy-1-negative clones were capable of IL 2 production. These results indicated that although Thy-1 cross-linking triggers cell activation, a signal provided by Thy-1 is not indispensable for cell activation by mitogens. The T cell tumor line LBRM331A5 responds synergistically to IL 1 and PHA by releasing IL 2. It was demonstrated that anti Ly-1 monoclonal antibodies and PHA co-stimulated LBRM331A5 cells, as did IL 1 plus PHA. Thus, anti Ly-1 antibodies mimic the effect of IL 1, suggesting a role for Ly-1 antigen in T cell activation, perhaps by serving as an IL 1 receptor or as an associated molecule. To further study the functional role of Ly-1 and its relation to IL 1 receptor, Ly-1-negative variants of the LBRM331A5 cell line were selected and analyzed for IL 2 production in response to PHA plus IL 1. It was demonstrated that the Ly-1-negative clones were capable of IL 2 production as efficiently as Ly-1-positive clones. These results indicate that the Ly-1 and IL 1 receptor are distinct molecules, which are involved in different activation pathways. 相似文献

Putative early thymocytes, the Ly-2-L3T4-(CD8-CD4-) cells representing 3 to 4% of adult CBA mouse thymic lymphocytes, were isolated in high purity (99.5%). They were then stained by using mAb and analyzed by flow cytometry for the expression of six additional surface antigenic markers. Cross-correlation of the data obtained from a complete series of successive two-parameter analyses revealed the existence of about 11 discrete subsets, falling into four-main groups, within the Ly-2-L3T4- population. All subsets consisted of relatively large lymphoid cells. The most numerous group of Ly-2-L3T4- cells was Ly-1 low B2A2-M1/69 high Thy-1 high Pgp-1 low and by these markers resembled Ly-2+L3T4+ cortical blasts. Many of the cells in this group were positive for the IL-2R and/or for MEL-14. A second major group of Ly-2-L3T4- cells was Ly-1 high B2A2-M1/69 low Pgp-1 high, and resembled in some respects activated mature T cells. This group had previously been shown to be absent from the embryonic thymus. The group could be divided into Thy-1 high and Thy-1 low subsets. None of the cells in this group were positive for the IL-2R and very few expressed MEL-14. A third group, 13% of the Ly-2-L3T4- population, was Ly-1 low B2A2-M1/69 low Pgp-1 high, and could also be divided into Thy-1 high and Thy-1 low subsets. A final minor group, 9% of the Ly-2-L3T4- population, was Ly-1 high B2A2-M1/69 high Pgp-1 low Thy-1 high. The particular pattern of markers on these subsets, combined with subsequent information on their properties, makes it unlikely that they all represent sequential steps in one continuous developmental stream, and indicates that complex developmental steps have occurred, even at this supposedly early stage of T cell differentiation. 相似文献

The specificities of the xenoantisera made against mouse myeloma cells have been compared to those recognized by alloantiserum by studying patterns of cytotoxicity on both normal and malignant plasma cells. Goat antiserum obtained by immunization with Balb/c mouse myeloma ADJ-PC-22A cells and purified by in vivo absorption could detect cell surface antigenic determinants present on plasma cells and on cells of liver, kidney, and brain (PLKB antigen), as we had previously reported for a similarly prepared rabbit antiserum. In spite of an apparent similarity between the tissue representation of the PLKB determinant and that of PC.1 antigenic determinants which were detected by DBA/2 anti-ADJ-PC-22A cell alloantiserum, the PLKB antigenic determinant is not identical with the PC.1 antigenic determinant, since the former is found on the tissues of PC.1-negative as well as PC.1-positive strains of mice. However, it was deduced that the PLKB antigenic determinant and the PC.1 antigenic determinant reside in close proximity on the cell surface or maybe even on the same molecule, since Fab fragments of antiserum against either PLKB or PC.1 blocked the cytotoxicity against both antigens. On the other hand, these Fab fragments did not inhibit the cytotoxicity of anti-H-2 antiserum, indicating that neither PLKB nor PC.1 antigenic determinants are in close proximity to H-2 antigens. Association of PLKB and PC.1 determinants was further supported by the finding that the loss of the PLKB determinant in a variant of myeloma MOPC-70A corresponds to the loss of PC.1 determinant on the same cells. 相似文献

Murine multipotential hematopoietic stem cells (CFU-s) bear an antigen (SC-1) which is recognized by heterologous antisera to mouse brain. We have found that cloned Thy-1 negative variants of the T-cell lymphoma RL ♂1 are sensitive to complement-mediated cytolysis by anti-brain serum and can absorb the anti-stem cell activity from the antiserum. We have isolated several subclones derived from a primary Thy-1 negative variant which are not susceptible to anti-brain serum. The surface of the resistant lines has little or no antigen capable of binding anti-mouse brain antibodies as measured by either immunofluorescence or a radioimmunoassay. These lines are also unable to absorb the anti-bodies responsible for the cytotoxic effect of rabbit anti-mouse brain serum against CFU-s. We conclude that the predominant antigen, serologically detectable on Thy-1 negative variants of RL ♂1, is SC-1. 相似文献

Previous studies on the surface phenotype of natural cytotoxic (NC) cells defined by negative selection with antibodies and complement showed that most if not all NC activity is the property of "null" cells that did not express a variety of lymphoid markers, including some expressed by natural killer (NK) cells. In the present study we show that when murine C57BL/6 spleen cells were sorted by flow cytometry into fractions positive or negative for Qa-5, Ly-2.2, Thy-1.2, L3T4, or surface immunoglobulin (sIg) and for high or low expression of H-2Kb, the pattern of NC activities was quite different from the negative selection experiments with antibody and complement. Enrichment of NC activity tested against WEHI-164 targets was observed in the H-2Kb high, Qa-5+, Thy-1.2+, and Ly-2.2- fractions, and to a lesser extent in the L3T4+ and sIg- fractions. However, significant NC activity, although lower than in the unseparated cells, was also found in the H-2Kb low, Qa-5-, Thy-1.2-, L3T4-, Ly-2.2+, and sIg+. With the exception of the anti-Ig, all the reagents were monoclonal antibodies. By comparison, NK activity tested against YAC-1 targets was clearly enriched in the H-2Kb high, Ly-2.2-, sIg-, and to a lesser extent, Thy-1.2+ sorted fractions, whereas most of the NK activity was in the L3T4- fractions. These results indicate that NC activity against WEHI-164 targets is mediated by an heterogeneous population of effector cells, which includes cells with markers of both the T and the B lineages, as well as of NK cells. These studies also show that negative selection with antibodies and complement is not always a reliable method for defining the surface phenotype of effector cells. 相似文献

The occurrence of Thy-1 antigens in Rana brain has been studied by the use of heterologous anti-Rana brain antisera raised in rabbit and BALB/c mouse (Thy-1.2) and AKR/J mouse (Thy-1.1) strains and by monoclonal anti-mouse Thy-1.1 and anti-mouse Thy-1.2 antibodies with the use of quantitative absorption assays. Three antigenic determinants were defined on Rana brain and referred to as: 1) the Rana-specific xenoantigen, 2) the Rana-mouse cross-reacting xenoantigen, and 3) the Thy-1.1 antigen. Thy-1 antigenic activities were solubilized from crude brain membranes in deoxycholate and followed by measuring the Rana-specific and the Thy-1.1 antigenic determinants. After solubilization, Rana brain Thy-1 antigens were purified by lentil lectin affinity chromatography and gel filtration on Sephadex G-200. A 605-fold and 400-fold enrichment in the Rana-specific and the Thy-1.1 antigenic activities with a yield of 25% and 17%, respectively, were obtained. Both antigenic activities were associated with a single glycoprotein of molecular size 3.1 nm and m.w. estimated at 27,000 by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The serologic and biochemical properties of our purified Rana brain Thy-1 glycoprotein were very similar to those of the mammalian Thy-1 molecule, suggesting the conservation of the gene coding for Thy-1 during vertebrate evolution. 相似文献

Decay-accelerating factor (DAF) is an integral membrane protein that inhibits amplification of the complement cascade on the cell surface. We and other investigators have shown that DAF is part of a newly characterized family of proteins that are anchored to the cell membrane by phosphatidylinositol (PI). The group includes the variant surface glycoprotein (VSG) of African trypanosomes, the p63 protein of Leishmania, acetylcholinesterase (AChE), alkaline phosphatase, Thy-1, 5'-nucleotidase, and RT6.2--an alloantigen from rat T cells. The structure of the membrane anchor has been best characterized for VSG, but chemical studies of the membrane anchors of AChE and Thy-1 suggest that similar glycolipid moieties anchor these proteins to the cell surface. In the VSG, the membrane anchor consists of an ethanolamine linked covalently to an oligosaccharide and glucosamine; the entire complex is anchored to the cell membrane by PI. Immunologically, this glycolipid defines an epitope, the cross-reacting determinant (CRD), that is only revealed after removal of the diacyl glycerol anchor by a phospholipase C. By Western blotting, we show here that DAF-S (DAF released from the membrane by PI-specific phospholipase C [PIPLC]) also contains CRD. Using a newly developed immunoradiometric assay (IRMA) in which the solid-phase capturing antibody is a monoclonal antibody to DAF and the second antibody is anti-CRD, we have been able to quantitate DAF-S. By IRMA, we show that the reaction between anti-CRD and DAF-S is specific, since the binding is competitively inhibited only by the soluble form of the VSG. These observations further support the concept that the glycolipid anchors of this new family of proteins have similar structures. DAF is also found as a soluble protein in various tissue fluids as well as in Hela cell supernatants. No evidence for the presence of the CRD epitope was found on these proteins, suggesting that these forms of DAF are not released from the surface of cells by endogenous phospholipases. 相似文献

The SM6C10 IgM autoantibody recognizes a surface determinant, 6C10, that is highly expressed on all immature thymocytes. In contrast, its expression on peripheral T cells appears developmentally regulated, i.e., absent from most naive T cells in spleen of neonatal mice, but expressed on 40-80% of naive CD4+ T cells in adult. In this paper, we demonstrate that SM6C10 recognizes a carbohydrate epitope on the Thy-1 glycoprotein using immunoprecipitation analysis, by binding to affinity-purified Thy-1 in an ELISA, and by sensitivity to N-glycosidase-F treatment. Retroviral Thy-1 gene transduction experiments into Thy-1- variant T cell lines and a pro-B cell line provide evidence that 6C10 glycosylated Thy-1 expression is not restricted to T cells but depends on the recipient cell. Therefore, differences in 6C10 levels among Thy-1+ T cells in mice likely reflect developmental regulation of posttranslational modification of the Thy-1 glycoprotein. The ability of naive CD4+ T cells to respond to anti-Thy-1 stimulation increases from neonate to adult, and 6C10- naive cells from adult mice respond poorly compared with 6C10+ cells, similar to the cells in neonatal mice. These results suggest that there is functional maturation by peripheral CD4+ T cells that coincides with 6C10 glycosylated Thy-1 up-regulation, and natural autoantibody recognizes this 6C10 carbohydrate epitope. 相似文献

Two H-2 negative variants of the YAC-1 lymphoma were selected by mutagenization and sequential in vitro selections and compared with wild-type cells for changes in NK sensitivity and H-2 expression after interferon treatment or in vivo passage. The H-2 negative variants and the low H-2 expressor YAC-1 wild-type cells had similar NK sensitivity. However, IFN-beta or recombinant IFN-gamma pretreatments increased the H-2 expression of YAC-1 and protected them from NK lysis, whereas the H-2 variants, which remained H-2 negative, were not protected and often more sensitive to NK lysis. The H-2 variants were similarly susceptible as wild-type cells to three other cellular effects of interferon: protection from virus infection, modulation of Con A capping, and inhibition of cell proliferation. Thus, the only interferon-mediated effect that distinguished the H-2 negative variants from wild-type cells was the inability of the former to increase their H-2 expression and decrease their NK sensitivity. The wild-type YAC-1 line showed increased H-2 expression and decreased NK sensitivity after in vivo passage. In contrast, in vivo passaged H-2 variants showed no reexpression of H-2, and remained NK sensitive. The altered responses to interferon and in vivo passage were specific for loss or down-regulation of H-2, because Thy-1 loss (H-2 positive) YAC-1 variants behaved as the wild-type cells in all respects. This study supports the hypothesis that NK cells may function in vivo to eliminate host cells that fail to express H-2 after interferon stimulation during an immune response; such cells are a potential threat because they may escape recognition by T lymphocytes despite the expression of viral or tumor-associated antigens. 相似文献

T lymphocytes that express CD4 and the alpha beta-T cell receptor but lack Thy-1. Preferential localization in Peyer's patches 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Thy-1- T cells expressing CD4 and the alpha beta-TCR have been identified in murine lymphoid tissues. These cells are particularly prevalent in Peyer's patches (PP), representing 17 +/- 3% of PP CD4 T cells, whereas they are much less prevalent in spleen, lymph nodes, lamina propria, or peritoneum. Phenotypic studies of fresh-isolated PP T cells demonstrate that all PP CD4 T cells (both Thy-1- and Thy-1+) express CD3, alpha beta-TCR, and CD5 (Lyt-1), whereas none coexpress CD8 (Lyt-2). Thy-1- and Thy-1+ CD4 T cell lines generated from PP also coexpress CD3 and alpha beta-TCR, but are heterogeneous in expression of CD5 and again do not coexpress CD8. Further studies revealed that Thy-1- CD4+ T cells were not present in nude mice. Short term stimulation of Thy-1+ CD4+ PP T cells with anti-CD3 resulted in loss of Thy-1 in a substantial fraction of these cells. Functional studies of Thy-1- and Thy-1+ CD4+ PP T cells indicate that fresh-isolated Thy-1- CD4+ cells do not proliferate in response to insoluble anti-CD3 but do proliferate when stimulated with soluble anti-CD3 in the presence of feeder cells. In contrast, Thy-1+ CD4+ cells proliferate well to both stimuli. However, Thy-1- CD4+ PP T cells adapted to in vitro culture exhibit vigorous proliferative responses when stimulated with either form of anti-CD3. Evaluation of lymphokine secretion by fresh-isolated Thy-1- and Thy-1+ CD4+ PP T cells revealed that both make substantial amounts of IL-2; however, Thy-1- T cells made less IL-4 than their Thy-1+ counterparts. Neither population made IL-5 or IFN-gamma. Similarly, Thy-1- and Thy-1+ CD4 T cell lines made similar amounts of IL-2; again Thy-1- T cells made less IL-4; and in this case Thy-1- T cells made IL-5 albeit significantly less than the Thy-1+ cells. Finally, immunohistochemical studies suggested that many of the CD4+ T cells in PP germinal centers were Thy-1-, indicating that Thy-1- and Thy-1+ CD4 T cells differ in their distribution within the PP. These studies thus define a phenotypically and functionally distinct T cell population which is most prevalent in murine Peyer's patches. 相似文献
