โœฆ Synopsis

The Tcrb-V10b+ T cell population has been examined with a newly established antibody, KT10b, specific for Tcrb-V10b but not Tcrb-V10a. H-2E+ mice have higher levels of Tcrb-V10b+ T cells (4.3%-11.0%) than H-2E- mice (2.2%-4.9%). This difference appears to be determined by levels of Tcrb-V10b+ T cells in the CD4 population. F1 hybrid mice between H-2E+ and H-2E- mice dominantly express higher levels of Tcrb-V10b+ T cells. [NOD (E-) x (NOD x A (E+))F1] backcross mice show positive selection of Tcrb-V10b+CD4+ T cells by H-2E. On the other hand other backcross analyses reveal positive selection of Tcrb- V10B+CD8+ T cells by certain major histocompatibility class I molecules. Involvement of non-H-2 antigens in these positive selections remains to be determined.

Tcrb-V6+ T cells are deleted by an endogenous superantigen probably encoded by a mouse mammary tumor provirus (Mtv), Mtv-7, in association with major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II molecules. In contrast, Tcrb-V6+CD4+ T cells are positively selected by MHC class II E molecules in Mtv-7- m

In the past year, significant technical developments have provided the opportunity to investigate the more mechanistic features of positive selection. Major progress has been made in determining the structure and function of the early pre-T cell receptor, in defining cell types that mediate positive
