Popis: | Activated human T cells via the CD2 or the CD3 pathways exhibited a higher capacity than resting T lymphocytes to incorporate and metabolize [3H]pafacether (paf) at 37 degrees C. Resting T lymphocytes lacked specific binding capacity for paf, yet high-affinity paf receptors (paf-R) were induced on CD3- or CD2-dependent activation. This up-regulation in the number of paf-R became apparent by day 1 of culture, reached a maximum of about 25,000 sites cell by days 4 to 6 and subsequently declined. Interestingly, human recombinant interleukin-2 in a dose-dependent manner prevented the decrease of high-affinity paf-R expression on T cells. By contrast, the receptor affinity was constant throughout the culture period. Thus, paf-R at different stages of T cell activation were indistinguishable with respect to receptor-ligand interaction, and differed only in their number. Together, these data demonstrate that after activation human T cells develop membrane high-affinity paf-binding sites. They also suggest for the first time that expression of the paf-R are coupled to T cell activation and/or differentiation. |
