PY - 1996 TI - Activation via the antigen receptor is impaired in T cells, but not in B cells from patients with common variable immunodeficiency JF - EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF IMMUNOLOGY VL - 26 IS - 1 SP - 231-237 EP - 231-237 SN - 00142980 KW - T cell activation KW - common variable immunodeficiency KW - T cell receptor KW - inositol phosphates N2 - The patients included in this study belong to a subset of common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) patients whose peripheral blood T cells have a T cell receptor (TCR)-mediated activation defect leading to impaired expression of the interleukin (IL)-2 gene upon stimulation with recall antigens (tetanus toxoid, Escherichia coli) or superantigens (staphy lococcal enterotoxins). In the present report we demonstrate that the patients' peripheral blood T cells failed to generate the second messenger inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P-3) following stimulation with superantigen or mAb specific for the monomorphic region of the TCR beta-chain. Patients' T cell lines were also impaired in generating Ins(1,4,5)P, when stimulated with tetanus toxoid-pulsed autologous monocytes. Addition of a second or third co-stimulatory signal provided by recombinant IL-2, CD28 or both had no effect on the Ins(1,4)P-3 formation of the patients' antigen-driven T cell lines. The T cell activation defect, however, was not absolute, as Ins(1,4,5)P-3 formation in the patients T cells after phytohemagglutinin or aluminium fluoride stimulation was normal. The impairment in signal transduction via the T cell antigen receptor was limited to the patients' T cells, as no activation defect after ligation of surface immunoglobulin. the antigen receptor on B cells, could be detected.
