While all known microbial superantigens are mitogenic for human peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL), the functional response induced by Mycoplasma arthritidis-derived superantigen (MAM) is unique in that MAM stimulation of PBL consistently results in T cell-dependent B cell activation characterized by polyclonal IgM and IgG production. These immunostimulatory effects of MAM on the humoral arm of the human immune system warranted a more precise characterization of MAM-reactive human T cells. Using an uncloned MAM reactive human T cell line as immunogen, we have generated a monoclonal antibody (mAb) (termed C1) specific for the T cell receptor V beta gene expressed by the major fraction of MAM-reactive human T cells, V beta 17. In addition, a V beta 17- MAM-reactive T cell population exists, assessed by MAM, induced T cell proliferation and cytotoxic T cell activity. mAb C1 will be useful in characterizing the functional properties of V beta 17+ T cells and their potential role in autoimmune disease.

We present evidence that direct T cell receptor (TCR) occupancy by antigen can either activate or inhibit T cells, depending upon whether or not a threshold number of local TCRs are crosslinked by multivalent arrays of the antigen. Variants of Jurkat cells were previously transfected with TCR alpha and beta chains that bind fluorescein, yielding FL-TCR+ human T cells. The transfectants are activated upon binding soluble multivalent antigen arrays at concentrations well below those required for monovalent interactions. This activation, measured by calcium fluxes and interleukin 2 (IL-2) production, indicates the superior binding avidity of multivalent ligands. Smaller, less multivalent arrays do not activate the cells, but antagonize larger arrays, demonstrating that antigen can bind TCR as either agonist or antagonist. The balance between activation and inhibition depends upon antigen array size, ligand valence, and concentration, indicating that a threshold extent of receptor crosslinking, and not individual perturbations of single TCR, is required for activation by antigen. Approximately 100 stimulatory arrays specifically bind per FL-TCR+ cell at concentrations where IL-2 production is half-maximal.
