The cytotoxic reaction mediated by cytotoxic T utilizing the T cell receptor (Tcr)' for antigen (1-4). Allymphocytes (CTL) consists of three phases: first, though structural studies on the DNA as well as the the CTL binds to the target cell: next, the CTL is protein level (5-10) have revealed striking similaries betriggered to lyse the target cell: and in the third tween immunoglobulins and theTcr, the latteronly recphase, the CTL detaches from the target cell which ognize cellbound antigen, whereasimmunoglobulins can is lysed in the absence of the CTL. Recently, we bind free antigen as well.

The reason why this DISCUSSION does not occur in our system is unclear.

T CELL ANTIGENS INVOLVED

IN CYTOTOXICITYANDADHESION

CD8 antibodies differed from those of the anti-LFA-1 or anti-Tcr antibodies that only blocked the adhesion and the lytic phase, respectively, of each CTL clone. It is unclear at present why anti-CD8 antibodies exert variable effects on the different phases of the reaction. This variable effect is not related to the quantitative differences in CD8,LFA-1, or Tcr expression on the different clones, because allthree clones expressed identical amounts of these antigens as determined with the FACS IV (results not shown). But it is possible that the affinity of the Tcr influences the effects of anti-CD8 antibodies on the cytotoxic reaction. Together, our findings indicate not only that CD8 acts as an adhesion structure, but that it is involved in the triggering of the lethal hit. Because anti-Tcr antibodies also block the lytic phase, it is likely that the Tcr and CD8 act ina coordinate fashion in the induction of lysis. It has been hypothesized that CD8 acts as an associative recognition element whichstrengthens theinteraction of Tcr with low affinity with its antigen, and there is considerablecircumstantial evidence that CD8 interacts with Class I MHC antigens (13, 43-45). CD8 can form homomultimers on the cell surface (46). Therefore, its role could be the mobilization of Class I MHC antigens on the interface between the CTL and the target cells, increasing locally the concentration of the class I MHC antigens which may facilitate the interaction between low affinity Tcr and theClass I MHC antigens. Recently, however, it has been demonstrated that anti-CD8 antibodies can block nonspecific cytotoxicity induced by antiCD3 antibodies in the absence of Class 1 MHC antigens on the targetcells (47.48). To explain this observation in light of the assumption that CD8 interacts with Class 1 MHC antigens, it has been postulated that triggering of CD8 confers a negative signa1 to the CTL, counteracting the positive signal given by the triggering of the Tcr. Our findings are not incompatible with either of these two hypotheses. To determine the exact role of CD8, it will be necessary to characterize precisely the ligand to which the CD8 binds. Moreover, more data are necessary concerning the functional relationship between CD8 and the Tcr.
