Death of mature T cells by separate ligation of CD4 and the T-cell receptor for antigen 总被引:48,自引:0,他引:48
Effector T cells are restricted to recognizing antigens associated with major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules. Specific recognition is mediated by the alpha beta heterodimer of the T-cell receptor (TCR)/CD3 complex, although other membrane components are involved in T-cell antigen recognition and functions. There has been much controversy in this regard over the part played by the CD4 glycoprotein. It is known that expression of CD4 correlates closely with the cell's ability to recognize antigens bound to class II MHC molecules and that CD4 can bind to class II molecules. Also monoclonal antibodies to CD4 can modify signals generated through the TCR/CD3 complex. It has therefore been proposed that CD4 binds to class II molecules, coaggregates with the TCR-CD3 complex and aids the activation of T cells. But given that TCR can itself impart restriction on the cell, it remains unclear whether the contribution of CD4-derived signals to those generated through the TCR alpha beta-CD3 complex is central to this activation. Here we report that when preceded by ligation of CD4, signalling through TCR alpha beta results in T cell unresponsiveness due to the induction of activation dependent cell death by apoptosis. These results imply that CD4 is critically involved in determining the outcome of signals generated through TCR, and could explain why the induction of effector T cells needs to be MHC-restricted. 相似文献

Altered subcellular distribution and activity of protein kinase C (PKC) is associated with transmembrane signalling in a variety of systems in which receptor occupancy leads to increased hydrolysis of polyphosphoinositides. Here we report evidence that in B lymphocytes, cyclic-cAMP-generating signal transduction pathways can activate translocation of PKC from the cytosol to the nucleus. Elevated cAMP levels and translocation of PKC to the nucleus are induced by antibodies against Ia antigens in normal B lymphocytes. Further, cAMP analogues mediate the translocation of PKC to the nucleus of these cells. These findings suggest that in physiological situations, ligation of B-lymphocyte Ia molecules by helper T cells leads to increased cAMP production which in turn causes PKC translocation to the nucleus. In view of recent observations that antibodies against Ia antigens induce differentiation of B cells, we conclude that nuclear PKC may function in the regulation of gene expression. 相似文献
