Clones of cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) differ in their specific reactivity with diverse target cell antigens. To learn about the uniqueness of individual CTL clones we injected rats and mice with cloned CTL in an effort to prepare clone-specific antisera and to analyze the CTL surface molecules that were immunoprecipitated by these antisera. Three clones were studied. They were all derived from BALB.B mice and were specific for antigens encoded by the major histocompatibility complex of the H-2d haplotype. Antisera raised in rats against individual clones contained antibodies to lymphocyte function-associated antigen type 1 (LFA-1) and inhibited the cytotoxic activity of all of the clones. In contrast, BALB/c and BALB.K mice injected with individual clones consistently yielded alloantisera that were clone specific in their ability to inhibit CTL-mediated lysis of target cells (P815). In addition, these alloantisera immunoprecipitated from extracts of 125I-radiolabeled CTL a disulfide-bonded dimer consisting of approximately equal to 45-kilodalton subunits. This dimer resembles the putative T-cell antigen-recognition receptor recently identified in several laboratories. The alloantisera also immunoprecipitated CTL surface molecules that were associated with beta 2-microglobulin and that differed in apparent molecular mass (37-38 kilodaltons) in different clones.

D002999 Clone Cells A group of genetically identical cells all descended from a single common ancestral cell by mitosis in eukaryotes or by binary fission in prokaryotes. Clone cells also include populations of recombinant DNA molecules all carrying the same inserted sequence.

D003602 Cytotoxicity, Immunologic The phenomenon of target cell destruction by immunologically active effector cells. It may be brought about directly by sensitized T-lymphocytes or by lymphoid or myeloid "killer" cells, or it may be mediated by cytotoxic antibody, cytotoxic factor released by lymphoid cells, or complement.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D013602 T-Lymphocytes, Cytotoxic Immunized T-lymphocytes which can directly destroy appropriate target cells. These cytotoxic lymphocytes may be generated in vitro in mixed lymphocyte cultures (MLC), in vivo during a graft-versus-host (GVH) reaction, or after immunization with an allograft, tumor cell or virally transformed or chemically modified target cell. The lytic phenomenon is sometimes referred to as cell-mediated lympholysis (CML). These CD8-positive cells are distinct from NATURAL KILLER CELLS and NATURAL KILLER T-CELLS. There are two effector phenotypes: TC1 and TC2.
