Cynomolgus monkeys were divided into two groups in terms of the reactivity of their lymphocytes with the FN18 monoclonal antibody, which is directed to the CD3 of rhesus monkeys. It was shown that 24 (12.2%) out of 196 monkeys did not have lymphocytes that reacted with the FN18, although T cells from those animals responded well to mitogenic stimulation. We have determined the nucleotide sequences of the CD3delta, CD3gamma, and CD3epsilon chains and found that two amino acids of the CD3epsilon chain of the FN18 non-reactive monkeys were different when compared with the FN18 reactive monkeys. Our results indicated that the CD3epsilon molecule of cynomolgus monkeys is polymorphic at the epitope level, which is recognized by the FN18 monoclonal antibody.

D015398 Signal Transduction The intracellular transfer of information (biological activation/inhibition) through a signal pathway. In each signal transduction system, an activation/inhibition signal from a biologically active molecule (hormone, neurotransmitter) is mediated via the coupling of a receptor/enzyme to a second messenger system or to an ion channel. Signal transduction plays an important role in activating cellular functions, cell differentiation, and cell proliferation. Examples of signal transduction systems are the GAMMA-AMINOBUTYRIC ACID-postsynaptic receptor-calcium ion channel system, the receptor-mediated T-cell activation pathway, and the receptor-mediated activation of phospholipases. Those coupled to membrane depolarization or intracellular release of calcium include the receptor-mediated activation of cytotoxic functions in granulocytes and the synaptic potentiation of protein kinase activation. Some signal transduction pathways may be part of larger signal transduction pathways; for example, protein kinase activation is part of the platelet activation signal pathway.
