We reported previously that thymic lymphomas from mice expressing transgenic TCR autoreactive against male (HY) antigen were resistant to anti-CD3 antibody-mediated induction of apoptosis although they were responding to TCR triggering. To test whether thymic lymphomas were specifically resistant to TCR-dependent Ca(++)-mediated induction of apoptosis, we have measured apoptosis of cells treated with Ca(++)-dependent (ionomycin, A23187) and Ca(++)-independent (etoposide, dexamethasone) inducers of apoptosis. Here we show that, unlike thymocytes, all thymic lymphomas were resistant to Ca(++)-dependent but not to Ca(++)-independent induction of apoptosis. These results excluded a general defect of apoptosis in lymphoma cells and suggested a specific inhibition of the calcium-mediated (TCR-dependent) pathway of apoptosis in lymphomas. Interestingly however, nuclear expression of a specific mediator of TCR-dependent apoptosis Nur77 was induced in ionomycin-resistant lymphomas indicating that, unlike normal thymocytes, thymic lymphomas are resistant to Nur77-mediated apoptosis.
