| Background | In the mouse, CD8 exists in two forms: (i) a CD8 heterodimer composed of an alpha chain (CD8a/Lyt-2) and a beta chain (CD8b/Lyt-3); and (ii) a homodimer of two alpha chains. The heterodimer is found on the surface of essentially all thymocytes and the ''suppressor/cytotoxic'' subpopulation of mature T lymphocytes. Subsets of intestinal intraepithelial lymphocytes express CD8a without CD8b. It has been suggested that CD8+b- T cells mature extrathymically, while development of the CD8a+b+ population of T cells is thymus-dependent. CD8 acts as a coreceptor with MHC Class I-restricted T cell receptors in antigen recognition and positive selection of MHC class I-restricted CD8+ T cells. In vivo and in vitro treatment with the 53-6.7 monoclonal antibody effectively depletes CD8a+ cells. The 53-6.7 monoclonal antibody also blocks allogeneic help specific for class I MHC antigens and T cell responses to IL-2. (Ref. 1-8) |
