Human T lymphocytes can be activated through either the antigen/MHC receptor complex T3-Ti (CD3-Ti) or the T11 (CD2) molecule to proliferate via an IL-2 dependent mechanism. To investigate the relationship of these pathways to one another, we generated and characterized Jurkat mutants which selectively express either surface CD3-Ti or CD2. Here we show that CD3-Ti- mutants fail to be stimulated by either pathway to increase phosphoinositide turnover, mobilize calcium or induce the IL-2 gene. The activation capacity of these mutants via CD2 as well as CD3-Ti can be restored following reconstitution of surface CD3-Ti expression upon appropriate DNA transfer (e.g. Ti beta subunit cDNA into Ti beta- Jurkat variants). Collectively, these results demonstrate that CD3-Ti and CD2 pathways are interdependent and that phosphoinositide turnover is linked to the CD3-Ti complex.
人类T淋巴细胞可通过抗原/MHC受体复合物T3-Ti(CD3-Ti)或T11(CD2)分子被激活,进而通过白细胞介素-2依赖机制进行增殖。为了研究这些途径之间的相互关系,我们构建并鉴定了选择性表达表面CD3-Ti或CD2的Jurkat突变体。在此我们表明,CD3-Ti突变体无法被任何一条途径刺激来增加磷酸肌醇代谢、动员钙离子或诱导白细胞介素-2基因。在适当的DNA转移(如将Tiβ亚基cDNA导入Tiβ- Jurkat变体)后,表面CD3-Ti表达得以重建,这些突变体通过CD2以及CD3-Ti的激活能力也得以恢复。总体而言,这些结果表明CD3-Ti和CD2途径相互依赖,且磷酸肌醇代谢与CD3-Ti复合物相关联。
