✦ Synopsis


Following appropriate antigen-specific stimulation, CD4 + and CD8 + T lymphocytes rapidly express cytokines. Based on this stimulation-induced cytokine secretion and using cell suface affinity matrix technology we have developed a new method that permits specific, rapid and efficient detection, isolation and characterization of live antigen-specific CD4 + and CD8 + T lymphocytes. The power of this technique is demonstrated here for HLA-A0201restricted influenza matrix protein peptide 58-66-specific CD8 + cytotoxic T lymphocytes, influenza A virus-and recombinant tetanus toxin C fragment-specific Th1 cells and tetanus toxoid-specific Th2 cells.

The pan-NK cell marker NK1.1, present in some mouse strains, is also found on a subset of TCRalphabeta+ lymphocytes termed NKT cells. These cells are primarily CD4+ or CD4-CD8- (double negative, DN), and both NKT subpopulations contain cells reactive with the MHC class I-like molecule CD1d. Murine N
